YAHOO!!
So I took last week off from lifting. My muscles were pretty fatigued considering I only take on day off from the gym a week and I never slack when it comes to pushing myself in the gym. It’s also been almost 6 months since I had a break! This morning was my first day back in the gym and I’m VERY excited. I’ve got butterflies in my tummy right now just thinking about the week ahead.. I know I’m weird…But whatever, I don’t care! Even though I took a week off I don’t feel like I lost much muscle. My arms still feel strong and hard, and they still have the same definition. And it’s been almost a month since I did legs. I do legs on Saturdays and the past month has been seriously busy with crap on Saturdays. But yet.. my legs still feel strong and hard also.. Normally after I take a week off from lifting (let alone a month from legs) everything feels soft and I feel like I’m starting all over again.. But this time I don’t feel like that at all.. So I’m really excited to see what kinda gains/progress I can get considering I don’t feel like my itty bitty muscles melted away.. Last week I looked up some calculators on BB.com for how many cals, pro, carbs, fat grams I’m suppose to be taking in each day…. I’m not entirely sure HOW accurate it is considering I don’t know that my BF% is accurate. But I’m planning on writing down what I eat in my food journal! So here goes nothing….

Well that’s sounds good, I just had an off week also. And yesterday was my first day back and I felt great. When you train long and hard for weeks sometimes you need to train some time off to rest and not over train you body…yup leg day don’t you just get all excited lol

Hey kid!
Long time no talk. I soon will be taking a week off even in the middle of my pre contest diet. It can’t be helped . Gotta go to Myrtle Beach for vacation. I will keep it clean and watch the carb intake. It will be hard to say no to all of the Drinks!! Corona’s will be popping all around me. I will have to be strong. Take care.
