I have go to say today was one of the best workouts I’ve had in a loooong time. I took a scoop of protein powder in 6 oz of water, 2 Thermoloids, 1 P-K and my multi-vitamin then out the door to the gym @ 3:45am. So I did 30 minutes of cardio, usually I’m bored by 30 min on the same machine but took a good mag (gossip) and pushed past my boredom. After the cardio on the treadclimber (awesome machine) I hit the weights. I don’t have a specific body part that I work one necessarily, it’s upper body one day with abs and then lower body the next day w/abs. I workout 4-5 days a week with cardio every morning.
I will have to say that I haven’t been in the gym for about 3 weeks though. Week of the 4th was sick, week of 11th was in Cozumel, and week of the 18th I was trying to come back to reality
. So my first day back to the weights officially was the 27th, lower bod w/abs. I am a little sore in the back but other than that everything seems to be just fine, guess I’ll need to up the reps I guess. I figured I was going to be more sore than this after 3 weeks of slackin’ but NOPE. I love that feeling, muscle soreness makes me feel like I’m actually working something, although I know I am anyway.
So back to my workout today. I did my usual workout routine, nothing special.
- Standing bicep curls from the side 20# 12 3 sets (reps up)
- Standing bent bar cable flys 30# 15 3 sets (reps up)
- Cable rope pull downs 50# 10 3 sets (# up by 10)
- Cable pushdowns with straight bar 60# 10 3 sets (# up by 20)
- Dip machine 120# 12 3 sets (reps up)
- Bi-cep curl w/v-bar 40# 10 3 sets (same)
- Bicep curls w/dumbell then twist outwards @ L-shape 15# 10 3 sets (# up by 3 fatigued @ the end of 3rd set)
So pretty much everything today was upped either weight wise or reps BONUS!! I had srombado in my head. I have been keeping up on his log for Rok and it is very inspiring and motivating to say the least!! I could almost hear him yelling @ me telling me to PUSH PUSH!! So I pushed my muscles to fatigue and my brain was pumpin’. I love that feeling, pushing past the hump of ‘oh man, I need to quit it hurts too much!!’ I love it!! I’m sure tomorrow I’ll be feelin’ it but, it feels great to know I actually accomplished something to fatigue.
Oh, I have one more thing. I have a toe ring on my right foot, toe next to my big toe. I have been playin’ around with it tryin’ to see if I can get it past the knuckle, well boys and girls I’ve got news for you, it actually passed on ‘through to the other side’ (singin’). I am totally psyched this is a sign that something big is happening and it’s going to continue dang it!!
Well that’s all for me today, until, well probably the new year. We’ll see you on the flip side.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT
