The Body I Deserve (June 25 2008)
Today workout wasn’t the best, but it was much better then yesterday workout in term of mentally and physically. The whole time at the gym, a conversation between my co-workers and I had this morning was repeating in my head. We were talking about one of our coworkers that has a major heart attack at the age of 32. In my opinion, that is a bit young to have such major problem. I thought about myself, and I thought about eating lean and exercising daily are such a small price to pay each day to be healthy.
Today, I did bench press, and I noticed how tiny a 25lbs weight plate is. I wrote as my goal that I will be able to bench press with both 25lbs on each side of the bar, but what I was thinking is to be able to bench press with 45lbs at both sides of the bar by July 4 of 2008. I remembered how nervous I was when I first doing Bench Press, and a bar it self was heavy enough for me, but now I was able to increase it a bit. 25lbs on both side wasn’t hard, and I was able to do 12-15, then I did increased the weight with an increase of 5lbs on each side and I was exhausted. I also did Squat with 10 lbs on each side. It wasn’t bad at all, I will try to increase the weight a bit next time. When doing Squat, I feel like it’s working my whole body, and I love it. Oh, forgot to mention, I was using a bench press machine in between regular bench press. I also did incline bench press, then I did work on abs a bit and finished it off with a 30 minutes slow pace jog.
I was supper hungry after the workout, and I decided to fuel my body with lean food course. Alright, don’t know what else to type so I’m going to stop.
