I’m 80% recovered from the flu….My last workout was on Monday and I’m looking forward to training this coming Monday. I haven’t been doing any cardio lately because I want more than anything to gain weight. My short term goal is to get to 130 and then from there, possibly 135.

I’ve continuously been raising my cals mainly to increase the size of my legs…As always a work in progress.
Lately I have been having the urge to do some spin classes or something…Reading my old blogs reminded me that I wanted to keep up with the sprinting but the cold weather made it very unappealing! I am going to figure something else out because there are still quite a bit of winter weather left.

I think my gains are coming along nicely and I’ve tried to take some of the advice on the boards and keep my abs almost visible while putting on weight so that when I do decide to cut, I will not have to diet to drastically (and losing lots of muscle in the process).

Can’t wait for spring to get here Oh and a quick note to myself for next year, when winter rolls around START DOUBLING UP ON VIT. C and ZINC !!!

My vacation for 2.5 weeks in the Caribbean was KICK A$$!!! I was able to work out for a little under 1 and a half weeks while I was there but then things got kicked up a notch around Christmas eve and I didn’t have time after that.

The usual thing that happens when I stop working out is that I instantly start losing weight…..UGH! So I have lost a few inches on various body parts and I have lost about 3 pounds (not sure if it is of muscle or fat or just water weight)….Even though I was VERY good about eating on time and eating enough calories. I even had lots of carbs and everything (desserts), so I was very surprised that I still lost weight/inches.

Going to kick my diet and training into high gear this year! Last year I made lots of great progress that I am very happy about…and each year I add to the muscle mass that I already have. I should see great gains since I have pretty much worked out what my body responds to and how to get to where I want to be.

Progress pictures incoming soon…I just have to get my time management organized lol

I’m also going to give Keto a try….Been hearing about it forever and I want to see what all the fuss is about

Not sure because I’ve grown fond of my complex carbs.

*edit* Actually I have decided to wait until after the holidays to start this diet, since I’m going on a 2 week vacation and I don’t want to cut carbs when I’m having fun!

*edit 2* I’ve done some snooping around and I’ve decided I like my complex carbs tooooo much to ever give them up! You’ll have to yank them from my cold dead fingers

Well I have been saying to myself….Sprinters have amazing legs so they are obviously doing something right!Why not start sprinting also?

Today was my first day and I didn’t last very long but it was very satisfying to know that I’ve gotten past the procrastination and started training for it.

Hopefully as it gets colder, my motivation to get out there and run does not diminish.

It’s been rough keeping this blog updated with my current schedule Definitely harder than I thought!

Yesterday I did legs and today I am contemplating whether I should do cardio or not to help the DOMS…

I feel so liberated …. Can you tell it has been a long semester ?   New pics incoming this weekend btw!

So I see the napalm extravaganza that is going on at the moment on this forum, so I did some research of my own.

Not to be a naysayer or anything, but I am really not impressed with what I saw from

To be honest, the before or after pictures just look like sedentary people started doing cardio and then all of a sudden, they lost bodyfat (*WHAT A SHOCKER! Cardio reduces bodyfat!*)

Some of the guys look exactly the same before and after give or take a few grams of fat…but nothing to rave about…

I am watching the log in the women’s supplement section, because they seem to be making more progress than the *testers.* So hopefully I am proven wrong

I didn’t work out today because I am **Supposed** to be studying for exams this week BUT I couldn’t resist blogging on 420….SO Hope you are having a good one!!!! (and more fun than mine )

Today I did 20 mins of HIIT and hanging leg raises
And yesterday I did free weight legs
