MyQnA’s BodyBlog

I am feeling really good about today’s workout.  I gave it 110% I even went and tried to do just that much more on the bicep curls.  I am on the right path.  This is the journey for me.  I feel so much better and fulfilled when I complete a hard workout.  I have to stick to it and stay focused.  I have to shove off now because I have a test tonight and I need as much practice on that as I do on my workouts

I need to figure out a better workout.  I am doing fine with what I am doing.  But i don’t feel liek I am pushing myself hard enough.  i am not yet bored with the workout and I am concentrating on form.  So, I guess when this 10 week challenge is up if I have continued to show dedication I will go out and find me a trainer.  This is the best I can hope for.  Anyway enough said for today.  I completed it I feel good abotu it and I need to fix lunch.  Which who knows what that will be I think just some salami and cheese maybe an egg hmmmmm or an egg and rice.  I am pretty sure this diet needs to be tweaked.

I have not blogged in a few days because I like to blog after i have posted my workout on the tracker.  I know that sounds a little anal but, since it wasn’t working and still isn’t I might add, I have no choice but to blog anyway.  Please come back workout tracker.  It makes my life so much easier.  Anyway nothign new just need to document that I am workign otu and I am sticking to it and that the Keto Diet is the devil.  Maybe not but I sure could use some crappy carbs right about now.  Workout below have a great day!

I was so tired this morning.  I got in late from school then I was wired from the bike ride home.  So it was hard to go to sleep.  Now I feel like truck hit me but, I do what I do.  I make lunches and breakfast.  Then the 3 mile bike ride to school and back.  Life is good.  So trust me when I got home I didn’t want to work out.  But, I did it anyway.  I want to see success.  I want to taste the satisfaction of triumph.  In order to do that I must press on.  I must do more and I must try harder.  That said.  It took me 15 minutes longer to complete the workout so I have to ask, Did I give it my all?  

I gave everything i had today.  I pushed and I changed up my routine.  I still feel like I can workout some more.  I think that is just the post workout high that I love.  Too bad you can’t bottle it.  Anyway I am sure the progress will come it is not like I have been at this for years.  Slow and steady wins the race.  So as long as I push as long as there is drive I will succeed.  By the way I am on day three of a Keto diet.  No one ever said anything about going crazy.  I swear I am going to hurt someone if I don’t get a drink soon.  So maybe on day 8 when I am eating carbs I will just jug some Jim Beam?  It’s a thought.  Ok just kidding….

Today is a rest day.  I woke up and took a quick sprint to the bakery.  Unfortunately I have no choice the rest of the family eats sanwiches at elast two times a day.  So I get the fresh bread and use it as an excuse to get in some cardio.  Although it is only about 15 min there and back.  It reall wakes you up.  OK now to business.  I am not sore today.  I knwo I kicked my ass yesterday I even did a few extra sets until it nearly hurt.  But aside from a little soreness in my lower back, nothing.  I am a little pissed.  I want to feel the aftermath of my workout.  I feel like I should do some training today.  Or do I just stick with the program every other day for 10 weeks and let my body make the changes. 

Perhaps I need to re think my routine.  I mean hell, I made it up myself.  I don’t know enough about bodybuilding.  It is possible I am not pushing hard enough.  Either way no pain no gain.  I feel like because there is no burn today I didn’t give enough yesterday and for that I should be giving more. Damn anyway it is a cardio day and I have already done a good hour.  I will have to ride again tonight so that will be another hour.  No wonder I don’t burn I am too damn tired after allthe riding.

I am pretty certain I will be watching my weight the rest of my life.  It is not like watching paint dry.  I mean it is almost like an adventure movie.  I can push and push and try hard and see what the end of that chapter is.  Or I can sit on the coach eating cookies and crap and be sure I know who gets destroyed in the end.  I have lost nearly 200lbs in the past 2 and half years.  I have changed my whole way of life and kicked my ass harder than even I could imagine.  So to my own surprise when I hit the scale today and saw an increase on nearly half a pound I wanted to shout with JOY!!!!  Yes I said joy.  I have one of those awfully special scales that shows I decreased my body fat and increased my muscle percentage.  i did it right whatever IT is I did it and I am sooooo glad I stumbled across this website.  I am able to easily track all ove the stuff I do and i don’t get lost in my workout.  I used to get bored and feel like this was for nothing.  Now I wish everyday was a workout day so, I can kick butt.  Am I biting off more than I can chew?  Who knows only time will tell in the mean time…..I will always Go Hard or Go Home.

So I learned that all excercise is not equal.  I did better today than the first time and added a few reps to my sets.  I think it makes good sense to change it up as I go and try to do my best to be consistent.  Today i got in and gave it my all.  I think I have to tweak my eating a little more because yesterday I was hungry all day and it was an off day so I think the excercise keeps my hunger down.  If I can find a way on off days to eat as well as I do on the days I workout then I may make better progress in the long run.

I woke up today completely sore.  I nearly forgot I worked out yesterday.  But, then I know this plan is working.  So even though I hurt it won’t be so bad in a few weeks I just ahve to stick with it.  Today is a cardio day but no workout as far as muscles go.  I plan on trying to tweak my cardio as well to get most bang for my buck.  I don’t have anything but time so I might as well use it wisely.

I took the time today to search the library of excercises on this site.  I love how they are set up.  i was able to easily locate all the body only excercises since, I have zero access to equipment.  I have 40lbs of free weights and that will have to do for now.  The examples made it easy for me to try some of them and decide they are too easy or too hard.  I think I have found a whole body workout that will work for me getting started over the next two months then I can change up or add something based on my progress at that point.
