OK, let’s try this for the 3rd time and see I can manage not to delete it again.
Today went great. Got up a bit later this morning after watching the game last night (WE WON!) and banged out cardio. Today is an offday from lifting and it’s also Low Carb day 1, so I’m just gonna take it pretty easy today.
Diet was perfect again today. That makes 5 days in a row that I’ve been perfect now, it feels great (that’s the longest I’ve gone in probably two years). My motto is "One cycle at a time" (referring to my 4-day carb cycling schedule) and it’s going very well. I reinforce my positive thoughts every day, and my sub-concious mind has been responding and really picking up my suggestions. For those of you who aren’t familiar with neuro-linguistic programming, it’s a method of undermining your negative sub-concious thoughts and replacing them with positive thinking. I know it sounds like psychobabble, but it’s probably the most important part of my plan. I learned about NLP and goal setting in the ebook "Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle" by Tom Venuto. If I could recommend people read one book in their lifetime on the subject of bodybuilding and nutrition, that would be it.
So, I’m gonna BS on the internet for a few more hours, talk to my wife, then hit the sack. Wow I just realized as I was typing that there’s no cardio tommorow, being leg day. Aweeeeesome. About time I get to sleep in a bit! So tommorow is Biceps/Forearms/Legs. Low carb day 2 also. Looking very forward to a weigh-in and BF update on Wednesday. That’s all I got. Laterrr.
