Well its been awhile! I have been MIA over here and slacking on my daily training. With Matt's injuries I have been eating what he can eat and thats mostly junk food, so needless to say its starting to show!!

I'm going to re-start a log over to here to keep my focus when I'm exhausted and don't want to do what I have to do!! I have done diets sucessfully and no what needs to be done, nows its just not being lazy and nailing it hard!!

Tonight will be chest night and cardio! Diet will be started tomorrow!

Honestly I'm going to be relying more on diet and cardio than supplements this go round due to not feeling well anymore. I'm tired all day and get sick to my stomach often when I train.

However I will be using Slin Sane for my carbs and Neovar daily.

I have a bottle of Free Test I will try to add in as well as Krill and a multi.

I use Vit D and alternate between Eviscerate and Napalm as well. Alphaburn seems to be working well form so that and ephedra will be my fatburner.

I did 30 min of interval cardio last night and will do some today as well.

Hi BOB!

LOL Well its the weekend and my off time!! Woohooo!

I'll be aiming for cardio today as well as Sunday. Matt gets his nose re-broken on Tue so it depends on how hes feeling if I can leave for the gym. Thats my shoulder day and my shoulders are huge and grow easily so not a big deal to miss it. Though I plan to go if I can.

Hope everyone has a good weekend!

Today will be cardio and leg day, I may try to throw in some shoulder work as well. I'm assuming Matt will be in bad shape after getting his nose re-broken. I don't want to miss a day of training if its not 100% necessary.

Welcome back Christine! There wasn't enough detail in FB updates for my liking ;)
LOL I try to keep my FB gym free, or keep it toned down a bit! I have the worst cold from sitting with Matt in the hospital 3 days. I don't know how you do it!!!

So Matts nose reconstruction set me back a day of training :( I'm hoping to talk Natalie into a combo day to make up for it. If not then I'll do some band work at home this weekend for shoulders.

Looks like I'll be training myself today due to the gym closing early. Looks like I might have to go to the Olympia also. I Really don't want to do this. I hate the wasted money and going looing horrible. So now due to the uncertain nature of this trip I have to mega diet just in case to at least look as good as possible!

LOL sure you can go! I'm thinking of all proteins and maybe fats with zero carbs. If I had carbs it would be in the am first thing and as green beans later in the day.

I can relate to getting back into it after a layoff, I was away for over a year once... now that was tough getting back but the fast progress I got with muscle memory at first kept me coming back. Can't believe I actually made it back to the stage last spring. Twas a long haul.

I see, you almost quit... :stooges: Similar circumstances for me, first the diet went, then the consistancy and then I just stopped going.

Logging is so important to me.. helps me stay focussed. Holds me accountable...

LOL sort of. I never quit training and I still am built fairly muscular but I just got where it was a struggle to go to the gym. I'm exhausted all the time. The log is to force me to push through that and go all 5 days a week. Even on the days that make me sick.

I've gained about 5 lbs since that and any fat over heavier muscle just loos bad, so I need to do what needs to be done. It just sucks because Matt and I have enjoyed the time on weekends that we spend out but it just doesnt mesh with what I'm trying to do now!
