Lots of shoulder this past weekend.  Today is an off day.  As far as diet goes I am trying to avoid consuming too much cholesterol, sugar, caffeine, and overeating in general.  kinda hard to do when you are trying to gain weight. 

WHoa!  didn’t go to the gym since sunday.  I feel like I haven’t gone to the gym in forever!  Can’t skip three days anymore.  Too much rest. 

Time for a change.  Ive gone into the gym like 5 times a week.  This week I haven’t been in since sunday and don’t plan to go in until thursday. 

I"m starting to tire of eating like a horse so I ate less meals today.  I had been eating close to every two or three hours in the last seven days.  Today’s workout was mainly chest and shoulder.  I started the workout with a five minute intense bike workout and followed it with tricep pulldowns.  Squats were painful and my wrist hurts from clean and jerks with the trainer.  My hip hurts too.  My lesson learned was that new exercises should be done wit caution.  I had a hard time holding the bench press today as well.  SO I skipped incline and decline also.  I mainly stuck to butterfly variations, curls, moved to pullup and dip supersets after doing some ab crunch machine sets.  I ended the day with a ten minute treadmill jog.  I was feeling empty inside but not tired.  SO i drank a cytogainer shake and skipped the multivitamin and the sizeon today as well.  I figure its good to change up the supplements every once in a while.  The cytogainer has whey peptides in it which was great for the muscles.  it also had some much needed glutamine. 

last night I had trouble sleeping again, problably just anxiety.  Today i had a bit of a change in my workout.  A personal trainer helped me with a new routine for shoulders. It took longer than I thought but was worth signing up for. 

Another rest day.  Last night I had a hard time staying asleep which resulted in a wrecked day.  My diet was off, my sleep cycle thrown, and my recuperation time delayed.  Today i spent much of the day trying to keep what I have gained so far and allow my systems to readjust. 

deadlift, inverted sit ups, incline sit ups, bent over dumbell rows, seated rows, shoulder press. 

Good day off to junk out on.  Superbowl Sunday.  Lets see what tomorrow’s like. 

Today was mostly arms and shoulders, with some chest.  I started with inset barbell curls, bent over reverse fly, forearm curls, bench press, seated military press, incline press, decline press, tricep pulldown, shoulder shrugs, shoulder extensions, and finished with a nice jog for 15 minutes on the treadmill.  One area I missed so far was abs. 

Today I went in around lunch time since I don’t have anything to do.  I did stiff leg deadlift, deadlift, inverted sit ups, seated cable rows, cable pulldowns, machine assisted dips, and rode the bike for 15 minutes.  today was mainly all back as opposed to yesterdays shotgun workout.  Tomorrow I’ll be working on the arms and chest again. I checked my weight.  I’ve gained 2.5 pounds in the last three days.
