Alright so this is a very easy and inexpensive way to cook you up some delish salmon which we all know is VERY good for us  

Salmon (Don’t get farm raised, that’s gross and could be filled w/dye)

1-2 lemons

Salt & Pepper

Oven’s at 400.  Slice up your lemons, layer them on a cookie sheet or cake pan, place your salmon on the lemons shake some of that salt and pepper on there, cover with foil and toss in that oven! (I just check on it once in awhile and take it out once it’s flaky)

To go with our yummy salmon here’s the cucumber salsa:

1-2 cucumbers chopped

1 serrano chili diced

5 green onions chopped

Cilantro chopped

Juice of 1 lime

Throw this all in a bowl, mix it up and place it in the fridge until your salmon is finished.

Pour some of that goodness over your salmon and mmm. Tasty right?  And easy!  If you dont’ like spicy make sure you throw out the seeds of the chili pepper!

Train hard, Eat GOOD

Sweet! FINALLY got some good sleep last night, first time this whole week, I’m a day behind, had to skip back but tha’s ok   Woke up, hit the gym for the follooowing:

 5 min warm up

DB Chest press on body ball  3 sets increasing weight

Incline DB 3 sets increasing weight, GOT THE 50′S FOR 4 REPS

Incline Cable Flyes 3 sets increasing weight but keeping reps to at least 10

Flye Machine  3 sets increasing weight

Did some abs in between sets but not on all exercises-just to keep my heart rate up.

Ok so  I can get the 50’s up on incline but I can’t do more than 10 pushups lol. Something to work on!

**No negative self talk!!  Negativity will only sabotage you as you strive to achieve your goals. If you feel that you are not worthy or are inferior, your behavior will reflect it.  People will nt show you respect if you don’t respect yourself, just as they will not be able to love you if you don’t love yourself… Eliminate the phrase I CAN’T from your vocabulary. If you think you can’t, then you won’t, but if you think you can… YOU WILL.

Train hard.
