Striation’s BodyBlog

Sticking to CHA still! Just had a t-bone steak during the superbowl at my brother’s house. Resisted the rice, beans, chips and cookies.

My workouts are continuously getting better weight-wise. Increased numbers on all of my back lifts. Took yesterday off to recuperate from 7 days of straight lifting. Doing shoulders tonight and I can’t wait!

Still trying to manage my time a little better so I can get more walking time after lifting. Right now I am averaging 10 minutes and it needs to be atleast 15. I am already looking leaner at the same bodyweight!

My workout for today:Legs

Leg extensions(warmup)-90X15, 15
Squats(these are light sets to warmup further)-135×15, 15

Leg Press pyramid-405×15, 495×15, 585×12+3, 675×11+4. Only 30-45 second rest between sets.

Hack squat-300×12+3, 12+3

Leg curls- 120×15, 150×15

I had to skip lunges due to time. Walked on treadmill for 10 minutes afterwards.

Diet has been awesome for the last 3 days. Still feeling strong on almost zero carbs.

    Started off great today. Had another 6 DHA eggs and 4 eggwhites for breakfast. After my arm workout which was ok, I had a chicken breast, 30 almonds and one fish oil cap. Hopefully my energy holds up in the coming week on this diet. Heard that the first can be killer.

Ok, started the CHA diet by Scivation early. Starting on the last meal of the day. I work nights. Just ate 6DHA eggs and 4 egg whites. No salt or anything.

Well, I’ve been back into lifting for 2-3 weeks. I slacked off for 2-3 months! No excuse! I had to ease into it at first to avoid extreme soreness. I’m going to start the C.H.A diet soon, I did the chest workout included in the book last night and it was the best workout I’ve had in a while.

I usually lift on instinct so switching to an actual program made a difference. I probably cut my rest periods in half compared to usual. Made the workout pretty intense and the pump was great! Looking forward to tonight’s back workout!

I’ve been hitting it hard with my friend. He helps me workout harder than usual and I believe I am seeing results quicker because of it. The soreness is worse than usual but as long as I keep the protein intake high I should be good. Sometimes I feel like the only person who cannot decide to bulk or cut. Sure I want to look lean for the summer but I also want to keep getting bigger/stronger. I’m looking bigger than ever in a tank but I know that once I hit the beach I will wish I cut longer. Maybe one day I will start to count calories and structure my diet for more than 2 weeks at a time….

    I haven’t had a workout partner for so long that I forgot how much better a workout can be with one. This last week has been great in the gym. Brazila is a monster so naturally I’m motivated to lift heavy and harder than ever. We’ve had 4 great sessions(workouts you pervs) so far. The combination of working out harder and getting less calories is making me so sore(just, no). Brazila says he will take a camera to the gym on Sunday so hopefully we will have some new pics soon.

    Well, yesterday I had one of the best chest workouts in a while with my friend Brazila. He switched shifts so we are able to workout together again. Did some thai pad work today which was awesome. Mom came over and made some enchiladas so my diet was off but I going to the gym made me feel better. STILL no pic updates. Sorry guys. Brazila is supposed to take his camera to the gym sometime soon so hopefully I will have something up within the week.

     On a side note Spiderman 3 is in a day and Halo 3 Beta 11 days later!

    Well, we drove about 4.5 hours north for Easter weekend and my diet suffered terribly. This is my second day back and I feel much better. Worked back with dumbbell rows, seated cable rows and pullups. An unfocused workout really. The weather is a real downer. My run was much better than the weight lifting. Jogged 2.7 miles today which is almost a whole mile further than I have since I started to add cardio back into my routine. Looking forward to the warm weather to return.
