This week has been
pretty good. I have a new regular job, so I am getting used to
actually having a schedule, rather than just working for my self
when I want. Now I have to work out early in the day rather than
later at night but that's fine with me.
This weeks meals were
pretty basic as a result of a new schedule. A day would go something
like this. Meal 1: four egg whites, whole wheat toast and a protein
shake. Meal 2: Salmon and leafy greens. Meal 3. Low carb
protein bar. Meal 4: tofu and brown rice. Meal five: Tuna with a
baked potato. Meal 6: a protein shake. I also take two servings of
creatine daily once in the morning and once before my workout.
I have been
adding a few more reps to my work out along with extra weight where
I could. I have been pushing my muscles quite a lot, ensuring
they are sore the next day, or two. I was on week five on the
lean muscle program and I have also been incorporating various
weighted ab exercises through out the week. I have been doing A
little less cardio this week. Usually it was just my morning session
of about 20 minutes of jump roping before my first meal.
Next week I am going
to bump up my cardio and try to focus a little more on reducing my
body fat. I have been really into my weight training but neglecting
my cardio a little. My new job Is not very busy and I should be able
to jump rope when I am not doing anything. So that means I should be
able to do lots of extra cardio this next week! Yay!
Check back to see how
it pays off.
Sincerely,
