Another great day at the gym. I woke up this morning with my lower back AND my abs super tight and stiff. I could barely sit up after I benched lol. By the end of the workout though, it worked itself out and warmed up. The only thing I think that could have caused my abs so much grief is the front squats from yesterday. Gotta love the core workout you get from those things.
Pre-workout: 1 scoop pc40, 1 peach During: 6 scoops xtend, 20g dex Post: 2 omega 3 eggs, 1 scoop pc40 w/ steel cut oats, 3 turkey sausage links Snack 1: apple and 1 oz almonds lunch: Going out to lunch with my transitional coach. Hopefully I'll have either a salad with extra meat or sushi. SNack 2: 6 oz activia, 1 oz fiber one, 1 scoop pc40 dinner: 6-7 oz chicken, .5 cup black beans, .5oz cheese, low carb/high fiber tortilla (basically a burrito) Upper Body Chest Heavy Warm up Bench Press 185x6x4 185x4x1 Incline DB Press 60x6x4 Wide grip lat pulldown 100x10x3 T-bar row-Wide grip 70x10x3 CGBP 140x8x2 140x6x1 Incline DB Curls 25x10x2 25x6x1 20 mins eliptical. Feeling wonderful Off to my next client. Peace

I didn't run yesterday but I got off my a$$ and ran after work today. You guys have me all pumped up. My diet hasn't been better and more consistent, I haven't missed a scheduled workout yet, my back is sore but not like it used to be. Everything is looking up.
Did 30 minutes on the bay. Drank 2 scoops xtend b4 and sippin on 2 scoops now. I'm super pumped I could run 30 minutes like I did tonight especially since I haven't ran much longer than 20 minutes in over 2 years and on top of that, I haven't ran anything but HIIT in about 6 months Tomorrow morning is legs! Peace

Negative. I'm still settling in here, working mandatory 10's and I think he's been busy. We might hit up a Lightning game sometime soon. Also, he said he could get me on the base which would be sweet to do some shopping with the no taxes and ****.

Slept amazingly last night. Morning came to quick! When I got up this morning I told myself "Get used to it. Unless your life changes dramatically, the only safe time I can count on to work out is the morning."
My calves were very tight this morning from the run and I feel like my left hipflexor or groin muscle is really sore. Not sure why? I stretched it out this morning and took some aspirin and hit the gym. Pre-workout: 1 scoop PC40 and 1 peach, 1 liter h2o During workout: 6 scoops xtend, 20g dex, liter of h2o Breakfast: steel cut outs with 1 scoop pc40, 2 omega-3 eggs, 2 turkey sausage links Lower Body-Quad Heavy Warm up Squats 210x6x5 Leg Press 420x6x3 440x6x1 Good mornings 105x10x3 Hypers BW+15x12x3 Leg Extensions 100x8x1 120x8x2 Standing calf raises 210x15x3 15 mins on the eliptical. Tonight my firm is having a get together for the potential new hires. THey are all interviewing tomorrow morning. They usually have an open bar. I kind of think it's a test to see who can control themselves socially. It has been known to get crazy and people not show up for their interview lol. I on the other hand, have already promised people I will be the DD to help curb any desire to drink. Lunch: 7oz chix breast, 1 oz mont cheese, 1/2tbls hummus, 2 slices whole mutli-grain bread, 2 cups broc Snack1: 1oz almonds and 1 apple Snack2: 6oz activia, 1oz fiber one, 1 scoop pc40 DInner: Probably 2 servings shrimp, 1/2 cup brown rice, and 2 cups broc. Peace

I have been sleeping so deep it's been so hard to wake up! Since this past Sunday, I feel like my "upper" abs or like my ribs are just so sore. I can barely sit up. It's not as bad as it was Sunday but it hasn't gotten nearly better as I thought it would. I've never felt anything like it before. It almost feels like I have weight sitting on my rib cage. Anyone else feel this before?
I also have a slight twinge in the lower back/hip area on the right side. Doesn't hurt when I do lifts, but after doing bending over exercises, when standing straight up there's a twinge. I think my huge knot came back. I think I'm going to get a foam roller tomorrow and start doing that twice a week. Upper Body- Back Heavy Warm up Deadlifts 245x6x5 T-bar row with a narrow grip 110x6x3 110x4x1 DB Flat Press 60x10x3 Dips BWx10x2 BWx8x1 Bent over BB Row-Rev Grip 135x8x2 135x7x1 Standing ez bar tricep press 70x8x1 70x7x1 70x5x1 20 mins eliptical Breakfast/snacks/dinner the usually type of stuff. I ended up having brown rice sushi last night. I just didn't feel like making anything. I'm working my ass off...a lot more than I have been and I can confidently say that. I hope it starts paying dividends with inches off this god forsaken waist! Peace

Was going to be a no workout day today...but I woke up at 7:30 (weird for a Saturday), got my car fixed, and I sat down at 11 and thought, what the hell am I going to do today? I don't have a yard to take care of, no family around, girlfriend is still in Michigan... so I decided to go for a run on the bay. I am hardcore about dropping 15-20lbs of fat by Xmas and I think I can do it. I'm doing 4 1-hour lifting sessions a week followed up 15-20 mins of elliptical and I ride my bike there and back...kind of like my warm up and cooldown I guess! I am also adding 2 30-minute run sessions a week on the bay on Tuesdays and Fridays. I might even do a double on Tuesdays. Saturdays will be my only off day and even then, I might do some running or biking.
Drank 2 scoops of xtend. Ran 15 minutes one way on the bay with the wind and 15 minutes back INTO the wind. Got back to where I started quicker which is crazy since I ran into the wind. Drinking 2 scoops of xtend now. I can't believe my cardiovascular conditioning is still so high...I feel like I could run forever but my legs are just sore! It used to be the other way around for me. Nothing more training won't fix Enjoy your Saturdays! Breakfast: 2 omega-3 eggs, 2 turkey sausage patties, 1 whole grain bagel, 1 oz cheese Snack1 : 1oz almonds and banana Lunch: high fiber tortilla wrap, 2 cups spinach, 6 oz shrimp, 1tbls three pepper hummus, and 2 cups broc Snack2: 6oz activia, 1oz fiber one, 1 scoop pc40 Dinner: Either a turkey burger with 2 slices of whole wheat bread or 2 turkey burgers, 2 cups broc Snack 3: 2 scoops pc40, natty pb, an apple and maybe some fiber one for some crunch

Another great workout. I'm a little concerned that I'm not losing fat. It's so hard to tell since the scale isn't really changing (Staying at about 193.4) and my waist measurement is coming in just under 37". I find it hard to believe that I'm not losing fat though with, as Boyd puts it, "winning" every day for over 2 weeks. I'm not expecting to have dropped a ridiculous amount, but some. I'm going to keep going for another couple of weeks. I'm assuming I'm putting on some muscle and probably dropping fat on other places besides my waist. I'd get a bf measurement, but I don't know anyone aruond here to do it.
Upper Body Chest Heavy Warm up Bench Press 185x6x4 185x5x1 Incline DB Press 65x6x1 65x5x3 Wide grip lat pulldown 110x10x2 110x9x1 T-bar row-Wide grip 75x10x2 75x9x1 CGBP 140x10x2 140x7x1 Incline DB Curls 25x10x2 25x7x1 20 mins eliptical. Diet is the usual. Peace

Run day this morning. Woke up a little late so I only got 25 mins in instead of 30...but I ran the same distance I did last week in 30 mins in 25 so I'm not complaining. Ran on all 6 cylinders
2 scoops xtend b4 and after the run. Wanted to do some foam rolling this morning but quickly found out the foam doesn't roll on hardwood, rather slides around. Oops!. I can't seem to find my yoga mat so it'll have to wait. Peace

Absolutely exhausted today. Woke up ok, started working out great and then after my leg presses I just had no energy. I finished my workout and I don't think it really effected my intensity too much, but I could feel a huge difference. Not sure why. I haven't done anything differently than I have the past 2 weeks.
Pre-workout: 1 scoop PC40 and 1 banana, 1 liter h2o During workout: 6 scoops xtend, 20g dex, liter of h2o Breakfast: steel cut outs with 1 scoop pc40, 2 omega-3 eggs, 2 turkey sausage links Lower Body-Quad Heavy Warm up Squats 215x6x5 Leg Press 450x6x2 450x5x2 These felt SO heavy. I'm beginning to question whether my previous weights were added up right. Good mornings 110x10x3 Hypers BW+25x15x3 Leg Extensions 120x8x3 Standing calf raises 240x20x3 15 mins on the elliptical Run tomorrow morning since I have to be at work by 7:30. Peace

What time of day do you workout?
I'm looking at changing some things up in the future and freaking hate working out alone.......since you live near where I work, maybe we could hit a couple workouts. I could get you base passes or pay where ever you go. LMK what you think. |
