Low carb day-only chicken breast and the carbs in my preworkout, bc I wasn't feeling it today. Got in about 3/4 of a gallon of water. Was off day from the gym: so did insanity and the Iron Joe 11 minute boxing round, on the heavybag after.0

Since I'm losing my trainer in two weeks I've decided to do a structured weight lifting program. For now I've chosen Strong Lifts. I set myself back a bit weight wise to make room for their suggested progression. Today was a good day, just a bit easy. I'm sure that won't last long.....LOL
Today: 25 min calisthenics warmup including pushups, planks, BW squats and lunges, physio ball pikes and bridges, renegade rows, back extensions, incline side crunch twists. 70 min weight lifting including OHP 5X5 @ 45 lbs, squats 5x5 @ 85, DL 1X5 @ 135 lbs, 5X 5 seated dips @ 120 lbs added, 3X 10 each leg box step ups, 3X 12 Alt hand swing w/25 lb KB, 3X 8 cable deltoid fly w/10/10, 3X 8 cable chest press w/23/23, 3X 10 inner thigh w/100.
1700 again for today. Macros pretty close to perfect!
Have a great weekend everyone!!!!0 -
Exercise: 45 minute weak sauce boot camp. Light weights and calisthenics.
Food: up at 2,500, when my current goal is 1,800 ( to lose ). I was logging but not really looking at my numbers before making food selections, and had also banked on a long end of day run I blew off. Oh well, it all evens out over this week because I've been pretty consistently under. I'll be more concientious over the weekend... And throw out the cookies my roommate baked me because her dog crapped on my floor.0 -
TGIF!
Today is my rest day, so light exercise:
Dynamic warm-ups, mostly to test new routine for runs and to help alleviate plantar fasciitis in my right foot.
Push ups: 3x10
Flutter kicks: 3x20
Food: Wendy's for dinner, so over.0 -
Rest day here...........yay. We're heading down to the beach to walk and cruise around the pier then take the ferry over to Balboa Island for lunch. I may or may not be good..........
, depends what's yummy on the menu I guess.
Happy Saturday! I'll be back at the gym bright and early in the morning!0 -

Happy Saturday!
Did an art market all day, so lots of standing, unloading, setting up, tearing down, and re-loading the car today. Very physical day. Gorgeous weather and I had a lot of sales. Great day.
Food: on target.0 -
@ Brandi.........congrats on the sales..........I used to do a lot of what you're doing and I know how hard you have to work setting up and breaking down!
Really enjoying Strong Lifts so far. I'm glad I lowered my weights a little to start, it's giving me a chance to make sure my form is spot on before I start progressing too fast. I was having some issues with my bench press form which my trainer corrected last week and it feels much better now.
Today: 20 min calisthenics warmup including BW squats and lunges, pushups, situps, planks, physio ball pikes and bridges, back extensions and hanging leg lifts. 65 min strength training/weights including 5X5 squats @ 85 lbs, 5X5 bench @ 75 lbs, 5X5 bent over row @ 65 lbs, 5X 6 seated dips w/120 lb added, 2X 16 side lunges w/22.5/22.5 lbs dumbbells, 2X 12 alt hand KB swing w/25 lbs, 3X 8 seated row @ 85, 3X 8 tricep extensions and pull downs w/40, 5X 5 seated dips W/125 lbs added 3X 10 crunch machine W/110. 10 min rowing machine @ level 10/31 spm.
Yesterday my calories were pretty good but fat was high since we ate out and had mexican food..........today will be better. We bought fresh fish on the way home from the beach and we're having halibut tonight....yummmm

I don't know how the people who aren't in shape handle working the market. Most of them have help, at least. Whew.
Glad you're liking Strong Lifts. Can't say enough about form needing to be good as those weights increase!
Happy Sunday, all!
Two softball games as catcher. They moved me to the top of the lineup for batting. I'm not the strongest batter, but am fast, so I have the best on-base percentage. Scored a couple of runs. We still lost both games, lol.
Food: some fast food, but on target.

God damnit! Completely derailed from routine yesterday by mystery eye condition. Can't see well. Major light sensitivity. Eyes burning and stinging and clamping shut. Can't do much of anything at all. Called off work and heading into dr. today so that I can hopefully get back to my normal activities asap. Two rest days in a row might actually make my head explode.
Food- didn't log after breakfast. Had a few bars in the afternoon and chicken soup for dinner. Over on calories without a workout.0 -
@ Robyn...........hope the eyes are better today!
Got the dog out for a quick 30 min walk before the rain came in again..............it poured here about 5:00 pm. Meeting my trainer this morning and then only one week of training left............boohoo. I'm really going to miss it but so far Strong Lifts is working out okay.
Ate under 1600 yesterday and probably today as well..........making up for a little of the extras over last weekend. Back to 1700 tomorrow!0 -
