Again I somehow managed to conquer all of my exercises today. Squat remains good, but I am starting to feel the weight now, or to put it more accurately I can feel the resistance more than before. Bench Press is far too easy as it has been since the beginning. I'm waiting for this exercise to mature. Finally, the dreaded Barbell Row is starting to get to me. I was struggling with the final rep of each set today. I did them, but they were not easy. 

Overall the body feels good. No real soreness that lingers, no pain during workouts. I seem to have adjusted to this training regime pretty good. 

I also tested my ketones today. Still producing them, but only on the second level out of five. When I am working out the meal plan for tomorrows meal prep I will look at increasing the fat content of the meals across the board as I suspect I am eating a bit too much protien.
