My New Training and Supplement Plan

Well, all of our friends and family know, so we may as well spill the beans here. The reason for having such a boring and uninformative journal as of late has been the complete lack of interesting training recently. When I had mentioned I was lifting at home, I didn’t mention that the DBs were 10 lbs, and when I mentioned that I was walking around the park for cardio, I didn’t mention that it was because it’s about as intensely as I can exercise these days.

That’s right peeps, we are having a baby! I am currently 13 weeks pregnant and am due January 8th. I’m staying fit during this time and have actually lost a few lbs in the first trimester (sadly, it is probably partly muscle). However, I still look pretty normal, with just a small belly, which isn’t enough to get a seat on the subway unfortunately. My tummy is still flatter than most of the people I see! That doesn’t mean my clothes fit, though.

Now that my training has been updated, my supps have to change as well. I can’t have caffeine, which is a real pain in the ass since I am tired all the time. I do still use my Prolab proteins - Lean Mass Complex, Naturally Lean Complex, Pure Whey and Isolate. In this current atmosphere, with tainted supplements being discovered all the time, I am genuinely glad to be sponsored by a company I trust for both my health and my baby’s health. My only other supplement at this time is my prescribed multi, Prenate Elite.

I am looking forward to my first prenatal massage now that it is safe and the first trimester is over. They also offer yoga classes at my massage center and I’m hoping there is a prenatal class. I was never interested in yoga, but I feel that I need to be doing something other than lifting sissy weights and walking.

At any rate, I’m looking forward to a healthy pregnancy, and coming back and kicking ass after the baby comes next year. Don’t look for any excuses about baby fat from me!
