Update for week of Feb 8th
Ok, so it’s been a better week fo me. I’m mostly over being sick. It felt REALLY good to get back in the gym on Monday and actually have some energy. I also made it on Tuesday this week so far. I didn’t go Wed but I plan to go tonight and tomorrow morning (or afternoon). This week has been pretty standard:
Mon - Chest/triceps (I graduated to presses with 35 lb dumbells say that good news for me!)
Tues - Quads/hams/calves (This week I actually managed to do 1 rep at 160 lb so that was also progress).
Wed - rest
…here’s the rest of the weeks plan…
Thur - Back/biceps/abs
Friday - Shoulders/Traps
Sat - rest Sunday - cardio and streching
…as far as weight goes, I’m kind leveled off at 137. Not having worked out for almost 2 weeks didn’t help my cause though. I’ll probably be stepping up the cardio next week to help boost my fat burning. Food has been good. Mostly broiled chicken or tri-tip with roasted veggies. I throw a little whole grain brean or couscous in there occasionally for energy if we’re eating before we workout. This weeks veggies have been aparagus and snap peas. I have indulged in some no-no’s this week like M&M’s and Reeses Pieces, so I get a slap on the wrist for that. Overall feeling good about the diet. I’m still basically only eating 1 "true meal" a day at dinner time. During the day I’ll eat oatmeal in the morning and then supplement with a power crunch bar and EAS Advantage shake for lunch. Lots of water too. If I get hungry again I’ll much on some apples or carrot sticks.
Till next time…
