Working those abs!
After church this morning was able to go the gym to catch up on some ab and calves. Did cable crunches and rope crunches, weighted crunches on ball, and woodchoppers. Did seated calf raises, standing and on the leg press.
At this stage I havent really been doing much cardio at all, I’m not sure if this is going to take me further away from achieving a lean muscular look. I really upped my carb intake in the hope of attaining better muscle mass, I’ve obviously kept the protein intake high.
My abs dont feel as tight as when I’m limiting carbs to before and after workouts, for me I find its such a fine line this carb thing, I know I need them but I’m not sure if I should be eating throughout the day. I still try not to eat it at my last meal.
When I read interviews with fitness people, they hardly ever consume enough carbs in my opinion, alot have just oatmeal and then veggies with protein. How do they grow such fantastic muscles?
I didnt really want to do another body fat test as I really wanted to concentrate on adding mass and not worry about bf right now. Last time I did it, 1 year ago, it was 14%. So I may be rambling on about nothing. A year ago I based alot of my diet on the oxygen fitness ladies eating plans, but now I feel like I need more carbs than just one serving or even 2. I want mass but I want to stay lean. I dont really bother about the scale as I’m always showing different numbers, I go by how my clothes fit.
I want to grow faster, I thought that the creatine would speed things up but perhaps that seems to help more with my recovery and strength gains, I find that husband is able to make much faster gains than me(testosterone, I know), I really want more defined quads and bigger biceps with definition, so my quest for muscle continues……….
"Whether you think you can or think you cant, either way you are right."Have a splendid week ahead!
