Back VOLUME

-
ahh my biceps are hurting, or is it my back?
Back/Bicep days are one of my more intense workouts of the week. However, I never really feel like I workout my back very well. Like I can feel the soreness in my arms, but not really throughout my back.. hmm

Back & Biceps
-10 minutes HIIT stairmaster
-10x10 Volume pullups
4 sets of the following workouts:
-Close grip pulldowns
-Cable rows
-T- Bar rows
-Hyperextensions



Ok so for 2.5 weeks I've been doing a Keto diet with a couple lapses of carb cheat days :) hahah I think it's been pretty effective however I haven't stuck with it long enough for the results to be exactly conclusive. It was weird that I craved carbs/sugars and actually wanted to eat oatmeal and sweet potato and brown rice only because the diet strictly doesn't allow it. (I'll try to write more about my quick experiment with keto diet soon!).

 I've decided to incorporate carbs back into my diet, but only trying to keep it at complex carbs. Currently learning about carb cycling. I like having more leeway in my life.

haha wow today I spent quite a bit of time on Pinterest organizing my old likes and boards. It's one of those sites that really suck up your time because you invested so many things you want to save for a future project or for your future in general. But the one disadvantage is that I've collected so many things that I pinned to look at later, which I have forgotten. I want to kind of get into a habit of looking back at them (while not wasting too much time) and bringing them out into action. Monday Breakfast: Banana, cinnamon, honey Lunch: Chopped Thai chicken salad   http://pinchofyum.com/chopped-thai-chicken-salad Dinner: Chicken, egg, cranberries, apples, nuts, onions, greek yogurt salad eat with veggies Tuesday Breakfast: Omelette wrap omelette wrap Lunch: salmon with yu choy inspirations..

One thing good about having gone to a small private school was that... everyone knew of each other, or at least recognized their faces. Obviously, that could also be a huge disadvantage. But being an alumni means that we have this small yet strong connection of 'networking' and when you bump into someone from your school, it's not that strange to hang out with each other even though back in school the only contact we might've had was taking a course together or bumping into each other at a social gathering. Well that isn't really the case here because I'm close to these awesome ladies here and Mr. Canada (let's call him that) was my ex-roommate's big so we're all interconnected and I have fond, fun memories with him from my undergrad years. hokay.. that was a slight tangent, my bad FRIDAY Anyways, I haven't seen Anabelle and Lexi in a while so through their beckoning I answered their call and sang/drove my way down to SD. I first meet up

Break free from it though! I want those abs and a booty! It's still spring so there's still plenty of time to sculpt :)
