Training with Hugo Rivera's book: Hardgainers Bodybuilding Handbook. End Season.

29/10/2011.
This was the last week of a long tough but ample with results and enjoyable 41-weeks program.

This three week strength training circle it was very good for the upper body especially for the arms. The down side was the imbalance between the the upper body and legs exercise. I also found out difficult to complete the routine in one hour.

Throughout this note-blog I had the chance to see the successfully and constant change of my body which was a huge motivation to keep training harder.
I am happy with the results and the experience I've gained from this little beautiful trip. But like any other journey so this one arrived to it last resort. I keep all the good things and continue, with you my friends, toward a new destination.
