The Body I Deserve (21 March 2009)
Four hours before the workout, I consumed 2 whole eggs, 1 egg white, with two and one half toasted mini whole wheat bagel, lean turkey sausage and a glass of orange juice. Around 9:30-10, consumed 25 grams of proteins mixed with milk. At 10:00 consumed Green Magnitude and around 10:30 2 scoops of Whiteflood.
Today exercise routines: WarmUp the Rotator Cuff, Bench Press, Incline Bench Press, Shoulder Press, then Legs Extension, Legs Curl. Good stuffs, but when I did the Clean Press (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxlgPsIBWSk) 15 reps, I nearly fainted, I felt I was out of breath and I started to lost senses. Then I had doubt about my trainer, “Does he knows what he’s doing?”. My previous trainer had a new job, and I have no choice but to pick a trainer to train with for the remaining sessions. I’ve been having doubt about my new trainer. Why? I guess because he wasn’t built and bulky as the other trainer. Therefore, at time he talked about his experience as a bodybuilder and his training all these years, I don’t listen, I blocked it out.
But today, I‘ve realized how wrong I am, and that I’ve make a major mistake of not listening. While resting, my trainer spoke of importance of eating properly, explain about complex and simple carbs. He does knows what he is talking about! He got me a book on nutrition, and reading materials to read. While I was resting, he went and got me a Gatorade drink. The combination of both resting and drinking allow me to complete all the exercises.
I’ve learned that I shouldn’t judge, instead I should be open minded, different trainer had different methods of training and they all will benefit me. I should listen more because I could miss something that my trainer say that could improve my training. 2 months and 10 days left to strengthening my mind and body!
