What I didn't do yesterday, is made up for today

Monday : lackluster fasted cardio Gym ("legs") -box jumps super set with lunges and split squats -box jumps super set with jump roping in place -box jumps super set with squat jumps -abductor machine -sauna I am very weak in lunges, it is so difficult for me. I think it may be a balance/core thing or maybe my right side is more dominant and my left. Therefore I do body weight lunges for now which still make me quite sore the next day. Lunges is an area I can improve on. So yesterday was like a cardio day because all the booty growing machines/racks that I needed were taken and I didn't have time to wait around. Anticipating a rigorous workout, I made yesterday a high carb day too (50 C, 25 P, 25 F).. oops don't think I worked out hard enough for that. (Keep in mind that I am trying IIFYM for the first time so I am really just experimenting with my body and fitness right now.) Tuesday: Today's battle plan. Have to make up for yesterday's -...

I could probably talk about my Leg Day in memes

Oh man I gotta mentally prepare myself for LEG day. Wear the right clothes, fully charge phone for music, find some fitspiration and think about BOOTY #operationgrowabooty Also hope to catch Ryan Gosling at the gym Yesterday I went to a cafe and got one of their  Intelligentsia coffees . It was so strong (& delish!) I felt slightly buzzed. Needless to say it was perfect for LEG DAY and I went HARD at the gym. However I couldn't fall asleep til 6 am the next morning..  Ps, I don't usually drink coffee and tea (unless I water them down) and I most definitely restrict myself from drinking caffeine after 3pm simply because I actually stay awake. Why do people (Ahem bros) suck at re-racking. The only comfort I have to having to take off all the plates is that it's extra energy expenditure and I guess I'm still "lifting things and putting them down." Ryan Gosling fitspiration/motivation. Self-explanatory. Oo...

This compilation always makes me ready for a great cardio workout! 3LAU HAUS #8 (Techibeats Hard Edition) So yesterday I came upon this song on my mp3 and did a quick 30 minute cardio session: 100 jump rope 75 high knees 5- squats 25 pushups 150 jump rope 75 jumping jacks 50 lunges 25 ab wheels 200 jump ropes 75 butt kicks 50 mountain climbers 25 ab wheels For lunch we went to an Indian buffet. Oh how I've missed Indian food :) It was my brother's and mom's first experience with Indian food. Unfortunately, the mother was disappointed; Indian food is pretty distinct with strong spices, needs quite a bit of getting used to. The brother enjoyed the food, but since he kind of has a weak stomach, he had some aftermath to confront later on :/ Seems like this will be my lonely pleasure. Ok! so yesterday wasn't supposed to be a "high" carb day, but since I indulged I had to go hard at the gym. DEADLIFTS And I finally bought myself these gri...
