So! I've gained 5lbs (2.27kg/.36 stone). Measurement time!

Neck: 15.75in (up .25in)
Arm: 14in (same)
Arm (flexed): 14.5in (up .25in)
Waist: 40in (up 1.25in)
Stomach (around navel): 39.5in (up 1in)
Thigh: 26in (up .5in)

Since muscle builds faster than fat burns (as I understand it), and since muscle is heavy, things are going well!

Exercise today and tomorrow, rest Friday, and then move up to setting 7 on Saturday!

I've been using a <a href=http://www.precor.com/>Precor USA</a> machine, the <a href=http://www.precor.com/cons/en/strs/345/>S3.45</a> strength system. The exercises that I do are the:
4 position freedom press (chest, pectoral, triceps)
4 position fly (chest, pectoral, triceps)
4 position straight forward press (chest, pectoral, triceps)
triceps extension (triceps)
abdominal crunch (abdominal, obliques, hip flexor muscles)
abdominal leg-raise (mid torso)
lat pull (biceps, latisimus dorsi)
seated row (biceps, forearms, latisimus dorsi, teres major, rear deltoid)
tricep pushdown (tricep)
arm curl (biceps, forearms)
back extension (lower back)

95.3 kg Lost so far: 9.1 kg.    Still to go: 4.5 kg.    Diet followed: Reasonably Well.
