OMG YES.
I got through shoulders and arms pretty well. I can't pull as much weight as I thought, but no worries, I'll increase it over time. I used 15s for the fewer rep exercises and 10s for straight arm lifts and the sets of 16s. I definitely felt a burn so I now I'm in the right place, even if it's a tiny amount of weight for my tiny little arms!
Ab ripper! I figured out all the moves. The ones that didn't make sense started to work and I got at least 15 reps on each thing. I felt a good ab burn on everything, yessssss! On many I got 20-25, so I'm pleased. I just sucked it up and kept going. Woo hoo!
Still getting used to the taste of this recovery drink. At least I'm having burgers later :D See you around.
Food:
Breakfast: 3/4 c eggbeaters, 1 cup strawberries
Lunch: 6 oz chicken, 1 c raw carrots, 1 string cheese
Snack 1: 1 cup cottage cheese
Snack 2: CLIF builder bar before/recovery drink after
dinner: 2 3oz burgers in 2 toasted whole wheat english muffins, 1 tbsp mustard, 1 cup cooked green beans
later: 1 cup 0% greek yogurt, red zinger tea

Oh Matt. I'm so mad. Yesterday I went over to my friend Trish's house to do my cardio and i picked up the wrong freaking DVD. It's like a weights routine, and I had to lift today, so I did the whole thing with 2 pound dumbbells, and it SUCKED. I barely broke a sweat, I'd be surprised if I burned 75 calories. :(
ReplyDeleteAnywho, back to business this morning, 35 minutes of delicious weight training this morning. I've started doing circuits, as opposed to resting between sets, and man, does it keep that heart rate up. Those lat pull downs are killer!
My food:
Breakfast: Kashi/almond milk/blueberries/flax, as usual
Snack: delicious clif builders bar
Lunch: 2 cups of spinach, carrots, tomatoes, cucumber, plus 4 oz. tuna, possible half whole wheat pita, we'll see how hungry I am
snack: greek yogurt with a teaspoon honey to sweeten (plain yogurt is nasty)
dinner: let's go with 2 oz. tempeh, 1/2 cup garbanzo beans, cooked green beans, and maybe a hard boiled egg.
Sister, honey rocks. I also have used a spoonful of splenda and a couple drips of vanilla. I even tried sugar-free torani! All are delicious. If any bro complains about one tiny spoonful of splenda, they need to calm down.
