A little food for the soul..

The rest of my day:
Well today sucked for me. First off I went in to work early, thinking that I would get out early then lift. This was not the case though. I ended up leaving at the normal time, with no time to lift before my bball game, which we ended up losing. All in all, a horrible day for me.
My diet was also not too good today either. At work around 11 I ate a big plate of baked chicken, beef stroganoff, and lots of veggies. This is when I took my 2nd daily dose of Natadrol. After this I actually had to work and I didn't finish until 4:45. While working I snacked on a protein bar. After work I had to hurry to my father's house to talk to him, which took about an hour due to traffic. Once we were done talking I then had to rush to my bball game. Before I left I got in two shakes w/ some whey, oatmeal, and a banana in each. I took my final 2 caps of Natadrol with those two.
Once I got home from the game I heated up a chicken breast and some brocolli. Then I made a shake w/ coconut milk, evoo, & whey. Unfortunatley tomorrow is going to be similar to today, but with no bball game. So I will probably be able to get my lift on after work, if everything goes as planned, which it probably will not. Hopefully I will be able to get some pics up too, sorry guys- I'm slacking...

Seriously people, if you want to talk burritos, you are all in the dark unless you have been to San Diego. It's close enough to baja to be authentic, but far enough across the border to keep the montezuma's revenge away.
All of the lower half of Texas is in the same boat, regarding being close enough to being near the border for authentic. Of course I will say the taquerias have some DAMN GOOD BURRITOS TOO! And cheap like $2.89 for a 2lb burrito. Just one thing you are forgetting about that you definitely do not have there. Tex-Mex! The best of both worlds mixed into one.
burrito bowls are the sh1t...that's why I use Chipolt-away! Get's those blood stains right out!
Haha....why the heck would you eat that food if it does that to you...:zx11pissed:...i just don't understand...:toofunny:
Honestly, not a fan of the Tex-Mex. You ever had mexican food from So-Cal... it's different than most anywhere else I have tried it.
Sometimes he is the S and sometimes he is the M.Haha....why the heck would you eat that food if it does that to you...:zx11pissed:...i just don't understand...:toofunny:
LOL"you mean your mom actually cleans the bloodstains out of your underwear with chipotlaway and then takes you back to chipotle?!"
Man dont feel bad about that, those pecan crusted chicken breast sound amazing. Like I am salivating over here... Great workout Bro. I know what you mean about going back to a gym. I worked out in my garage for 2 years and loved it until I went bck to the gym and had so many exercises I could do. That and at 4:30 in the morning I don't have to wait on anything.
"You must spread some rep around...."
Looking good jd! real nice leg day you had there..Man....you better never screw up and lose that job!:lol:..you eat about 70$ a day worth of food ..hahahahaha
Here is a little morning libido check :bad:

you should ditch the straps to get some more grip strength
Yesterday:
Basically all day yesterday I was at work. From like 7 to 6. There was a big tournament that didn't start until noon, but some people were playing in the morning too. I ate like 4 times, they had some kind of steaks and many other good things. I just can't remember everything. After work I had to pack up some of my stuff bc my girl and I are moving into a new place.
Today:
I had to work early today so I got up early. I only had peanut butter and protein powder for breakfast since we were at our new place and we didn't have any food yet. To bad that I arrived at work to late and I just got to sit there for 4 hours and I left, not doing anything. There were not many people playing today and I was too late to get a group. I did get a two plates of spagetti, meat loaf, fish, and green beans before I left. Once I got home I hit the gym for an upper body session.
Upper Body:
Deads - 135 x 5, 225 x 5, 285 x 5, 315 x 1,1,1, 285 x 3
Incline DB Press - 70 x 10,10,10,8
Pull Ups - 7,7,77 superset w/
Shoulder Press - 115 x 12,12,12,12
DB Rows - 90 x 3,4,3,3
Incline Hammer Press - 45 x 15, 45+25 x 12, 45+25+10 x 8
Dips - 15,15,15
Lat Pulldown - 130 x 10,10,10
After
After my workout I had my 40/40 post workout shake. Then I ate a ton of chicken, broccoli, and three pieces of ezikiel bread w/ honey or peanut butter. I went a little light today w/ some extra reps on most lifts. I also forgot my straps so I couldn't go too heavy on my deads. I suck at pull ups now. I use to be able to get 10+ for mulitple sets easily only a few months ago. I had taken my afternoon dose of Natadrol like an hour before I lifted and I noticed a increased pump today, especially in my back. Yesterday my girl said that my muscles looked "fuller" and felt harder than usual. I just told her that that is not the only hard thing she would be feeling lol, seriously.
I have no idea what I am going to do with the rest of my day today. I might go somewhere and eat later with some friends, but I don't really want to spend any money. Tomorrow I have to work early, but I am going to wake up extra early and get in a core workout before I leave. After that I have to go visit my girl's parents until Monday evening I think, or Tuesday morning. Tuesday is when my next workout will be hopefully. Although I might have a playoff bball game then. Hope everybodys weekend is going well!!
Mood: I feel relaxed, kind of tired though
Strength: Slightly up so far
Weight: will check tomorrow or Monday
Endurance: I'm not even needing any rest between sets
Agression: don't really notice this too much anymore
Sides: none
Libido: still sky high
Concerns: none
you should ditch the straps to get some more grip strength
I know, I am working on my grip too. Today was actually the first time I was able to pull over 300 w/ no straps, so it is coming along
315 is damn good!
315 is damn good!
Marzia!!
I honestly think wraps are great on deads and doing more dynamic things like walking dumbell holds are better used specifically for grip strength when the goal is strength and mass increase in the back and legs. I prefer to go heavier with wraps on deads but only in the upper sets not using staps on the first 4-5 sets as I build up the weight. That way grip strength is not the limiting factor but is still being worked on. Then you get best of both worlds. But holding on to HEAVY dumbells and walking is so dynamic it requires more grip strength than the same weight on the bar would because of the free movement of the dumbell. Just my $.02
Lookin' good buddy!! Nice weight without straps, good job!! Straps can help break some plateaus, I've used em' before. Now, I just don't, although, I'm almost to the point of exceeding my grip, unless I stagger it, but I hate doing that. More than likely gonna invest in some hooks, those will be more useful for me, and hten I can start working my forearms again.
Man if you get hooks get good ones cuz the ones I got at Academy SUCKED!!!!!! They didn't even fit the olympic bar and the metal stuck out far enough to impede my grip or cut into my fingers. I was VERY DISSATISFIED with them. Use them once... I here the 1 Ton Hooks are good but I went with something I found at Academy and was not pleased.
