Day 14 Squats, Deadlifts oh my. Day 15 CST

Image
Thursday I believe I just ran around the neighborhood and wasn't very proactive with my working out. So I won't count this day. Day 14 Friday .  I spent most of the morning getting my eyes checked out and then immediately after I went to the gym for  Volume training  Squats! -warmup with the bar -add the 25 plates and do a set -make it 35 plates and do two sets -make it 45 plates and do as many reps. I take rests in between since I don't have anyone to spot me and every time I don't succeed in completing my squat I have to take the plates off and raise the bar again LOL.  -afterwards go back down to 25 plates and do volume training I also did some deadlifts, I couldn't resist. Then did Adbuctor machine before heading home. Oh but first, let me take a selfie I'm telling you  Squats > Deadlift  for booty growth. Trust me, I like big butts and I want one too. Day 15 Saturday .  Today I got to workout and teach my f...

Week 1 workouts

haha this is a little embarrassing.. putting pictures up of my progress but I want to be more open and candid with my fitness journey. So I'm kind of laughing at this before and after for my first week because of how 'drastic' it is. The picture on the left was from the past Sunday after July 4 celebrating of eating, drinking, and no working out. And the right is a pictures from a yesterday morning after almost a week of lifting, eating low carbs mostly, and morning cardio sessions. Quick advice. The night before the 'before' picture, make sure to eat some pizza and a burger then wash it down with a cold beer. When taking the before pic, remember to jut out your guy and then you'll have a 'drastic' picture ;) It can possibly trick you and motivate you because of how much progress you have made in a week! haha actually, I lost 4 lbs though. It's mostly water weight I'm assuming but it's been stable at -4 lbs : Anyways I kept track ...

Thursday, May 29 PUSH

PUSH chest press 3x12 squats 5 sets leg press 3x10 tri pressdown 3x10 shoulder press/y-press 3x10 Yesterday I kind of lagged so I did the workout fasted. I'm personally used to fasting till 1-2 pm so I was still energetic. I did eat a handful of peanuts just in case - don't want to be lightheaded and faint at the gym! After the workout, I realized I like to do cardio fasted but strength training should be done after a solid meal. I didn't feel like my performance was weaker or that I burnt out quicker, but preferably I won't be weightlifting on an empty stomach again. I thought it was so funny that my sweat marks made this face -___-. I call it the "weh" face But this is what I got to eat post workout. Chirashi bowl - some carbs and protein :)
