10-4, thank you.
Day 30 update:
Weight - 174.6 (yesterday mornings wake up weight)
Wow, what a difference the lack of carbs makes! Lol.. I'm really enjoying this new recomp strategy. I mean, it's sunny & 71 today! It's still shorts weather down here! That means spring is right around the corner, so I need to buckle down & dial it in!!
I hit the one month mark today & can honestly say, this has been a great run. Despite the downer of the sore nipple, (not as bad as it first was), I've enjoyed every part of this! Again, other than the initial gyno flare up, this bottle has been 100% side free!! Imagine running this along side something like SD, or at least bridging into it. That would yield some pretty impressive results.
Yesterdays total body workout was a great one! I woke up late, & am completely out of pre-workouts, so I hit up the vending station at the gym & got one of those ABB NO/Energy drinks. The last time I ran this routine, it was 5 sets of 15. Yesterday, it called for 5x12. I knew right away I was going to get a little more weight due to the lower reps. Here's the routine & weights: I'll post last weeks weight in ().
Squats - 5x12 (135) 160-1st 2 sets, 175, 185, 190. My thighs are responding great to all these leg workouts! Side note, I went to Old Navy the other day & decided to try on a pair of their slim cut jeans, just for a cleaner look.. I could barely fit into those things!! I walked out of the fitting room & my wife couldn't stop laughing!! She said it looked like yoga pants!! Needless to say, I didn't go w/ the "cleaner look..." My legs wanted more weight on the bar, but my lower back said it was plenty.. We'll see what next weeks routine brings. The lower back might have just been a little stiff from jumping right out of bed & being under the squat bar about 30 min later.
Bench press - 5x12 (135) 135, 145, 155, 165, 155. Had to drop weight on that last set. Both my shoulders are in some serious pain. Thinking of going to the surgeon that did my previous shoulder surgery for an MRI on both. I can feel some tingling down in my fingers every once in a while. The fish oil & super cissus hasn't touched the pain. Had a pretty good pump after that 5th set.
Lat pull downs - 5x12 (150) 170, 175, 180, 175, 170. I could feel when I peaked on these.. My lower lats felt like jello all day yesterday & now my entire back is feeling wide & full.
DB curls - 5x12 (25's) 25, 30, 30, 25, 25. The pump was sick! But, my shoulders, once again kind of limited my movements.
Skulls - 5x12 (65) 65 for all 5 sets. For some reason, my tri's felt weak yesterday. I really struggled w/ all 5 sets. Not sure if it was just fatigue, or still waking up.
This morning, I did 25 min on the stationary bike after doing about 5 different sets of ab exercises.
Looking forward to tomorrows workout already! I'll be able to update tomorrow night when I come back to work.
