5FIT (C2 : W3 - Chest/Shoulders/Triceps)

I got a neoprene belt to wear during cardio. It purports to raise core temperature for fat burning blah blah blah... the majority of their claims are pretty much hokum, but I'm going to test whether it helps get rid of this belly fat that I can't seem to dump. My hypothesis is that my remaining belly fat stays cool during workouts and is thus harder to burn. It's supposedly true that higher temperature stored fat is easier for your body to metabolize, but you still have to do the work and be in a fat burning state, which is why most of the "it burns fat right away we swear" claims are crap. I doubt it'll help much, but hey... 5% is better than 0%.

Anywho, good workout to start the week. I went heavier on the press machine and plan to stay at 300 until I can hit 10/9/8 without dropping weight. Everything else went well.
