YOGA : Vinyasa hour and a half. Felt good to stretch....hope to do it again tomorrow!!


Felt pretty good today....my workout was constantly interupted by my old trainer and my girlfriend who is training for an INBF show...(his now GF) She looks awsome....he said I looked thicker...and need to get back into some hardcore workouts...jeas do I look like a slob?! I still can see my abs a little!....I think he's just jealous because I stayed at a consistant weight of 124 in my 3 months of contest prep....I think I'm hardcore...but I'm more about form right now than throwing super heavy weight with momentum....perhaps the reason my hammie is a MESS!!


Speaking of weight...I'm a consistant 130 now...I am a freak when it comes to weight but I'm trying to accept it as a good thing because it means I'll have more muscle mass on my body come August...in reality it's only a 2 lb gain since we started but I definately have filled out more in the lower portion of my body...I took some very scary photos which I will keep for my own personal reference...UGH!

My legs were super tired by the lunges and I really don't want to reinjure myself but I want to push myself to heal...

I was scared to go heavier in the squats today because I really felt the strain in my hamstring...but I know I could pull more weight.

And the leg press I can definately pull more weight, again being careful.

Interval Cardio Day

Did my Cardio on the bike at the end of the day
35 minutes. Felt Good.

Rough Day with Hamstring/Glute?!
Had PT in the am and it just killed my glute...

Had my own personal pain in the arse all day long....
My body felt pretty tight today...really hoping to hit the yoga mat tomorrow.
Macro's were pretty on par but I was starving towards the end of the day...kinda weird
since I didn't exercise until later in the evening.
Also had a twitch in my shoulder all day...kinda bizzarre could not only feel it but see it twitching.
I'm wiped out..off to bed!

Wondering how a night workout will be..UGH! In super early for the Tiger Presser today...

Night workout was OK...legs were Ok didn't want to push it too much with squats and lunges...had to find my weight range...think I'll have a better grip on it next time around...
Sissy Squats...OHHH LORDY.....NO CLUE....

I'm feeling super full today. Definately feel thicker or is it in my head?...the guys at work are all about the fact that I'm non longer suffering from noassatall...UGH! My pants are tighter...don't really get it since I'm not working legs so much...but last time around I was 6 pounds lighter during training and my legs got smaller and smaller...I suppose less bodyfat...at one point I had built some glutes but my body ate alot of it during the last few weeks of prep. TMI!


My hamstring is much better...at least the muscle belly is pretty much healed...however the tendon on which I sit is not...and has been throbbing ever since my workout...Did I mention I'm exhausted?!


**FOOD Q: Is it OK to have Carbs in my last meal...like alot of them 30-40g? I hate to plan like that but I screwed up and forgot higher carb lunch this am...

Today I had a long PT session. Told him I'm feeling much better..no longer painful just annoying...and then ran off to the gym for my Leg Workout...

I was told not to push it so I didn't but felt great to move a little weight around....ofcourse I paid for it while sitting in the car on my way to work...but the pain went away...
Next Leg Workout I'll Push it some more!! WHooHOOO! Other than that I feel good..having a fat and bloated day...but this shall pass....can't figure out what it is...just not really hungry today and forcing myself to eat...

Felt great today...OK seriously how did I get this strong?! I'm convinced something must be wrong! When I trained with my previous trainer I never really saw the weight he was piling on plus I was doing a ton of reps...

I'm happy that there are peeps at both of my gyms willing to spot me and point out mistakes I'm making when it comes to form...I don't want to dog my last trainer but he was more about poundage than proper form...then again everyone is different... I'm tired and rambling...On to Macros...

**Pretty good if I say so...although I hated what I tried to make with egg whites and ricotta cheese...c'est la vie...I'll report my weight and measurements tomorrow.


This week the hardest thing for me to get used to was eating more carbs...I was freaked when I saw how big my bowl of oatmeal grew and how much rice I'd have in my second meal...and that I could have carbs in all my meals if planned properly!

Ciao for now.

Feeling pretty large marge today, could have been from the sodium in last nights final meal...
and mental due to lame workout...Once again told I pushed my leg too much last time around...so took it easy to see the concequence...My hammie bothered me for awhile after my workout but it's getting less painful...I'm thinking positive that I'll be healed soon enough! Hoping to get some yoga in this weekend since I'm no longer traveling for work tomorrow....have been up way too late making meals for the next few days...will be coming in better on my Macros tomorrow...

Hit Cardio Day 2/3/10

Today I did my High Intensity Cardio Day.
I would have loved to run but alas...

that darn hamstring.

So I rode the bike....

great to push myself cardio wise...
and tough too...but really felt exhilarated
afterwards.

Also did 20 minutes of PT Stretches.
My upper body is sore...but it feels good.
