after i was sick last week, it was hard finding time getting back into the gym as much.  so I am getting overanxious some days and feeling idle.  But its ok because some times i really don’t feel like doing anything strenuous.  I think this will pass in a week or so.  Its just from being sick. 

This morning I was reading an article on an animal stack workout.  I figured I try the back workout and it was amazing!  I could really feel the pump.  But it took an hour and 20 minutes to accomplish which is way too much time in the gym.  I cut back a little on the junk food, but its not really helping since I have a sore throat.  And I almost passed out in the gym doing deadlift.  I noticed I shifted to higher weights with less reps over the last two weeks so I wanted to try something new and it worked.

I just couldn’t keep away from the junk food.  Man, now my abs are hidden again.  Dang.  And my love handles came back.  outside the gym… How come it is stress levels skyrocket when people try to derail you? You know the saying, give them an inch… they take a mile and give you the receipt, then they complain and its all your fault.  I don’t need that in my life. 

Today was shoulders and back.  Shoulder shrugs were excluded due to early onset of fatigue and time limiting factors.  The diet has too much fat in it.  Or Too many cheat foods, like pop tarts, cheetos, doritos, and hostess cupcakes.  God those hostess cupcakes are good.  They are sugary mounds of yummness wrapped in a see through cellophane blouse.  They use their hypnotic suggestive shapes to lure you in and buy them.  DAMN!

I feel pretty worn out today.  I had a heavy chest day, but I didn’t have the energy to complete alot of the sets.  Yesterday I ran for 30 minutes and that was it.  The day before I did a light upper body and back workout, focusing on legs and abs for moderate to heavy reps.  But today, my shoulders wore out fast.  My chest muscles were kinda blah today too.  This last month I built a solid base.  But I think I need to tweak the workout for this next month.  of course, my training just seems to evolve as I do it.
