School has been overwhelming these past couple of days, I am currently moving and have not had a room for about 1 week, i have been sleeping on my couch so i have been feeling very tired and not rested. Plus school work just keeps adding up…..reguardless of all this i still manage to pull through and really make sure i get my meals in and hit the gym hard. I am not going to lie i was extremely tired this morning and the weights felt heavy but i managed to hit up the intensity….i gave myself a 7 out of 10 for todays workout…Bicep’s got slammed today even though i am only doing 2 exercises i focus super hard on those 2 maximizing the effort on those
well until next time!

Notes
Great workout today….i was totally focused and dialed in……I totally felt every fiber in my chest, shoulders and triceps just expanding and growing
-went alil off my diet today….had 2 extra bowls of my favorite cereal…..I was totally starving today, so i gave in alittle bit to my body’s urge to eat….Since chest is a weakpoint for me it can only help!
In reality i probably had maybe an extra 200-300 calories
My water intake was high today at 3.5 gallons….Lately consistently i have been having a huge urge to drink water? Average for the past 2 weeks is about 3 gallons….maybe because it fills me?
Today i really felt overall that i pushed the growth envelope!
