I think I'll skip on posting the detail on my workout today. In a nutshell, I did a full cycle of back. Moves into 'some' bi's... and then just kinda roated in between a few sets of shoulders, bi's, and tri's.

The reason is because this was pic day. lol

Photos are in my Exercise Gallery.

And here's my weight.

AM Weight - 227.6



I'm over the tuna thing now. Yesterday I did 35 carbs and over 300 grams of protine. In a nutshell, I had two tbsp. flax oil, two chicken breasts grilled, one large can tuna, and the rest protien shakes.. Here's a tip though for anyone who might do the tuna thing.

It tastes a lot better if ya put tobasco on it..

Back to posting workout detail tomorrow..

Gimme that swamp, swamp, swamp music..
............................................ - Lynyrd Skynyrd

This is gonna sound a little corny, but I found an old friend of mine today..

Best leg workout I've had so far - no doubt!

I'm not completly sure where the attitude came from. For the last two months all of my workouts have been pretty intense. But this one one of those 'other ones.' Very heavy - audible - focused - and just attacking the iron. I've not felt quite that way since I was 19 and working out then with the would-be Mr. Mississippi. I'm just hoping the dog stays around. lol...

Anyway - here's how it goes. Also had a personal best today.

Quote:
Abdominals:
(none prior to legs)

Weights: (legs)
4 sets - standing calf raises
3 sets - seated calf raises
4 sets - flat sled leg press
4 sets - incline leg press (personal best - 370 lbs. 3 times / last set)
4 sets - seated leg curls
2 sets - laying leg curls (rocking the cradle at failure)
3 sets - total glutes (new - 3 each side)
4 sets - leg extensions / hard-n-heavy

Inclined Abs:
1 set of 50
Cardio - Yoga
or Meditation:

(skipped)


I guess I should also add that I put up some progress pics in the Exercise Gallery

And here is my weight today:

Quote:
AM Weight - 229.0


That's up from yesterday but still reflective of a good loss following my trial of a 3 day tuna fast. Not really worried about the increase as I guess it's just the cells re-expanding.

I think I'll also do Chest, Shoulder's and Tri's tomorrow. I actually wound up accidently working out today on a day which was supposed to be my off day. lol.. But in as much as I'm feeling so good, I don't think I'm even close to overtraining. As a result, I think I'm just going to push on through.

HA!

lol... thanks, Dawn...



Workout was a bit different today. I had to skip over Incline Leg Press. I loaded up the weight and came down for the first rep only to find out I was having some lower back pain. Nothing disc related - just muscle. So rather than risk an injury I skipped incline and just worked a little more on the hamstrings and glutes.

Also finished off with a trip to the hot tub.

Hey Spud... As always, good to see ya..

Also, leave it to me to be late after someone saying something good..

Today was my first day back in the gym after skipping a few. I went in on Saturday and actually started working on legs but it just didn't feel right that day, and as a result I came home. Sunday I wound up having to work all day and actually most of the night. Monday was filled with work again. (this site - healthpower.com). But luckily I made it back in the gym today.
