End
Day 5 was a strange day. I intensified my exercises a little bit by working squats into my sit-ups, but I couldn't run or do stair-sets because I began to feel sick to my stomach. Perhaps it had something to do with the distance between my first meal and my second meal, but it kind of hampered the process a bit. I ended up resting with the intent of picking up the cardiovascular stuff after a short break, but I never did get over the nausea and decided to make day 6 a day of intense cardio work instead. My girlfriend did make a comment about my forearms feeling a lot stronger when we were grocery shopping. I'm not sure if she was just trying to boost my ego or if she really meant it, but it did make me smile.
