August 2017 Measurements
Measurements January 28th, July 1st, then Today, August 21:
Shoulders 45 7/8 - 43 1/4 - 45 1/4
Chest 40 1/4 - 38 1/2 - 39 3/4
Waist 40 - 35 3/4 - 36 1/8
Hips 39 1/2 - 36 1/4 - 37
Left Bicep 11 3/8 - 13 - 13 3/8
Left Forearm 11/1/8 - 11 - 11
Right Bicep 11 1/4 - 13 1/4 - 13 1/4
Right Forearm 11 5/8 - 11 1/4 - 11 1/4
Left Thigh 22 1/4 - 20 1/4 - 22 1/4
Left Calf 14 1/4 - 13 - 13 1/8
Right Thigh 22 3/8 - 21 - 22 1/4
Right Calf 11 5/8 - 13 - 13 1/8
Neck 17 - 16 1/4 - 16 1/4
Weight was 160, 145, and 147.2 respectively.
I don't have enough current experience to be able to gauge this well. I have worked my shoulders hard the last several weeks. I haven't done any bicep, forearm, or calf specific work. I've been mostly doing powerlifting type workouts with Deadlifts, Squats, and Bench, with Overhead Presses and side raises with dumbells. I've continued with moderately light rows and pull downs. This week is my de-load week (a week with light weight). Last month I did one day of sets of 3 with 12 reps, then 3 sets of 10, and 3 sets of 8 on the following two days. This month I did sets of 15, then 10, then 5.
I think I'll try the 15, 10, 5 Daily Undulating Periodization ("DUP") approach of changing reps and weight each lift day of the week.
A big shout out to my gym partner and measurement taker! I'm glad she's willing to help out.
I'll link this to other update pages later.
If you read previous posts you'll see why I have restarted this blog. The purpose of my current workout routine is to help me improve my insulin sensitivity. Any aesthetic changes will be a bonus. I'm more concerned about my health.

Keep it up, Enrique! You are doing great! You are not only a perspiration but also an inspiration to the people. You are almost up to a buck fifty of pure muscle and Latino heat. Pretty soon, instead of being known as Enrique, you will be known as Enrico, as in Enrico Suave. And the chica locas will be calling out your middle name as they fantasize about your hard body. Karen is going to be jealous and pissed. But simply tell her it's not your fault. Or is it???? HAHA
