so I have to replan………..I have been off training, sick for a while, got some meds, had no choice as I was heading slowly toward pneumonia so I went in and got some antibiotics which sucks cuz especially with my health you do not want to get your immunity suppressed. I cannot get sick again this year as the next time it will be worse since I now took these antibiotics and that makes the bug smarter the next time.
I have not pigged out to much, too sick to eat, if anything not been eating enough. But trying to keep to veggies, potatos and proteins and stick with at least a shake per day for breaky and all the other supps. Back is not too much better, will be scheduling some treatments when the time is right and I am not so sick nor broke………….hey it was just Christmas and although that is not what did, I had to pay some of my moms debts this past couple months draining of any spare funds, even my Christmas bonus from clients was spent on her debts - not all, she has too many but some of them most urgent so my other half and I really were not able to spend much, under a hundred bucks each for each other. Being sick makes it all suck more as does this crappy cold weather which for someone with my health issues means I cannot be out for more than 30 minutes even covered from head to toe, just cannot breathe in cold air, it annoys the crap out of my lungs and I end up sick……..like now.
Of course I am not happy, very grumpy, I hate cold and just want March to roll around now……..been counting the days to summer since last summer……………………
I am going to revamp my plan but am looking at a bulk to march maybe so:
Jan to March 08
Lite cardio, mod bulk diet, weights.
But I have to start back light with back work to help get me healed so my bulking will based on 2-4 sets of 8-12 mainly with maybe higher reps on active rest which is on week 4 of each 4 weeks.
I want to start some kickbox work on the heavy bag again to firm the rump more………i also noticed I have cankles now……..not sure how i feel about it other than the need to build up calves more, the actually diamond itself and try to avoid the underlying muscle which resulted in my cankles. Many gals, guys too actually, complain about tiny ankles………..I don’t have that issue.
I just think it makes my lower body look bulkier and when lean, more muscled than the top.
Its amazing how the goals must constantly change to match your on going results.
I also really want to make good use of my PVL sponsorship to boost my goals so I have to eat well and take my supps since I get free stuff now, want to make sure I take advantage since its a year contract only……of course I can hope they keep me on but we will see and I cannot assume, but I can work toward it. In the past I tried PVL and was not fond of the protein but this was years ago, they have all types now and its not so bad, some are good actually and they have greens n oil and vitamins……….that saves me a ton of money.
Aug will be around the corner, unless I do one sooner for figure - to try to get top 3 so I can do fit and fig in Aug…….but otherwise its just fitness in Aug.
So this week I will start with bands and see how it goes, now that I am feeling a bit less winded and sick.
