    Good Morning and Happy Monday my friends!!!

    Strength: Chest, Triceps and Calves tonight

    Cardio: Does nightly yoga count as cardio or strength?

    Assessment: I usually don't work out on weekends, but yesterday, I saw all friends posting their workouts on MFP, had to get up and do something! picked a routine posted by one of my buddies and boy it kicked my rear end, royally! was awesome!
    Bulking is going good, weight is increasing ever so slowly, but that's how my nutrition coach wanted to be anyways, so must be on the right track.

    Have a great week everyone!

    Got a nice workout in this morning and I've actually been losing weight........about 5 lbs in less than a week so my trainer upped my calories. We've been playing with calories and macros since last week but he had them a little too low, even though I do still want to lose that last 7 or 8 lbs. I didn't want to lose it all in a week....LOL

    Cardio: 10 min elliptical

    Strength: 20 min warmup including 50# RDL's, 25# goblet squats, pushups, planks, donkey kicks, decline situps and shoulder rehab.

    65 min strength training including

    4X8 bench press w/65 lbs
    4X10 wide grip pulldowns w/60
    4X20 mt climbers
    4X10 shrugs w/65 lbs

    4X12 incline bench press w/20/20 lbs
    4X10 bent over rows w/65 lbs
    4X30 crunches w/25 lbs

    4X12 prone flys w/10/10
    4X10 seated cable rows w/75
    4X10 hanging leg lifts

    4X10 rear delt flys with 40
    4X10 reverse grip pulldowns w/60
    4X12 full sit-ups to stand

    Assessment: Doing well on a deficit again although it may be too much of a deficit so we'll see how it all shakes out.

    Today was just a dog walk/run. Improved a little by doing 3 intervals of .55 miles running so a total of 1.65 miles. Not too bad. Knee feels good although my hips are a little stiff after today's outing.

    Meet with trainer in the morning tomorrow!

    Hope you're all having a great week!

    Happy Hump Day guys!

    Cardio: Only if you count 5 minutes on the stair master....LOL

    Strength: A 15 minute warmu-up, followed by 60 minutes with my training working core and accessories and then another 20 minutes finishing up some of the things he showed on my own.

    Assessment: So I've lost about 4 lbs since last week since my trainer mixed up my calories and macros. I've upped calories slightly again because we decided it was a bit too low. I actually lost 8 lbs but only 4 of them stuck. Guess the rest was water weight and I imagine some of the 4 is as well. Anyway, I'm enjoying what we're doing and looking forward to getting back into my groove after a less than stellar year last year.

    Everything counts! Don't fret on a day. Just check to see if weight is going up steadily. If not, add in 200 calories.

    Happy Friday guys! Yesterday was just a rest day for me and I think I must have needed it! Have pretty bad quad DOMS from Wed so my trainer and I worked arms and shoulders today followed by a little core workout.

    Cardio: Tomorrow

    Strength: 20 min warmup followed by resistance band shoulder press, front raises, bicep curl, rear delt flys, tricep push downs and hammer curls all with trainer. He corrected a little mistake I was making in my curls, hammers etc. I was shifting my elbow a little forward on the lift which makes it not as effective and it totally felt different when I was doing it right. After my session with him I did some crunches and side planks just to get a little core in.

    Assessment: Doing well but we're upping my calories again by about 100. I'm losing a little too quickly. Held steady at a 4 lb loss for a couple of days then lost another lb so for 8 days that's definitely a little too fast. I only have about another 5 or so lbs to lose anyway.

    Have a great weekend everyone!

    Hey gang,

    I like myself unconditionally!

    Happy weekend! 2 clients this morning. Still overcast here, but hopefully I can find a dry spot in the day to walk outside. Cleaning up and just getting ready for the big game tomorrow. Forgot to say last week that I got a new laptop: HP Spectre 360. Pretty nice, but not cheap (at least for me anyway). Should last me another 10 years.

    Cardio: walking- 30 min (150 calories)

    Strength: core- crunches, leg lifts

    Assessment: Beef chow fun last night.

    Happy Saturday Guys! So nice getting new computers Niner, I'm jealous!

    Got a nice walk in with the dog. I didn't try to run today as my knee was feeling a bit sore and I have leg day tomorrow so I need to be as pain free as possible for that.

    Cardio: 55 min walk and a little over 300 calories

    Strength: Tomorrow

    Assessment: I've stuck really well to the new nutrition plan and now tomorrow we're doing a brunch at a really great restaurant with friends before the game so all bets are off! Sitting at 5 lbs lost in the last 10 days so that's a bit much anyway. I'm not going to pig out tomorrow but I'm going to enjoy it and also have some champagne!
