What the?
I’ve got 3 what the?’s
Firstly my scales: Erm why is it I lose 4kg over night? It happened on Saturday morning and I thought they were just being weird but I got back from Sydney and got the same number. Not complaining. I’m actually seeing a pattern. It’s called carb-cycling. I switch up my diet, throw in some treats and woosh, down they go. By treats I mean sweet potato, rice, fruit and soylati. These have actually been slip ups, but I’m thinking I’ll see how I go with 2 high, 2 low for a fortnight.
2ndly: While in Sydney I trained at Market St FF and again experienced an annoying phenomenon. All the dumbells where just randomly scattered around the gym. The 5kg spot had a 22 and a 12 in it. The ez-curls and straight bars were all mixed up. No one seemed to care, and I got weird looks when I started to tidy up. The same thing happened when I trained at Melbourne Central FF late last year. I don’t know how you East Coast people do it! All 3 FF’s here in Adelaide are spotless in comparison. I do however, love that I can train anywhere in Australia.
What was the 3rd thing again?
Blah, I’m tired and have over done the carbs tonight so my brain is loopy.
Did an awesome leg workout tonight. I forgot to bring the program I’m working on with me so I winged it. Best lower body effort in ages.
Modified Fit-tribe warmup/activation- added clams for my glutes and scapula pushups for my wing
SS seated hams/seated curls 2×12
Front-squat (really ATG- how low can you go?): bar x 16, 27kg x 12 x2, 32kg x 6 x 2, rest 90 secs with hanging spinal rotations
Standing bb single leg DL- 15kg x 8 x 2 rest 90 secs
BB Walking Lunges: 20kg x 12, 20kg x 10 rest 90 secs
Forward thrusting jump swats (for calves) the length of the gym x 2, rest 60secs(curl up and die and do it again)
Cable fitball crunches + 12 burpees x2
Seated calves (40kg) + standing calves(90kg) + 10 burpees x 2
A HEEEEUGE Malaysian meal afterwords. Tomorrow is R&R and lean mean and green.
I’ve actually had a big learning and thinking couple of days and will hopefully get fingers to keys and get it all down tomorrow.
