What's that smell? Its not Reaper thanks to RPN's Gut Health/NoXidant

[AE14]

sorry for the delay in posting, we had an emergency at work.

got in some fasted cardio this am

35 minutes 4.5-5.0mph 15%

 

[AE14]

Nice arm workout but no cardio as the weather is bad and I wanted to get my daughter early

Arms:
2arm db extensions (5 sets) 80lbs
Rope pulldowns (5 sets) 100lbs

2arm reverse pulldowns (5 sets) 70lbs
Hammer curls (5 sets)40lbs

BB curls (5 sets) 105lbs
1arm db preacher (5 sets) 50lbs

got a nice pump, and with the weight loss I noticed that I actually see the horseshoe in the triceps that I didnt know existed. I was like a little kid at christmas. Tomorrow will be good as I have the day to myself. It seems my jerk of a soon to be ex father in law is coming out to take my daughter and her mother out for the day. So no time constraints or anything tomorrow :thumbsup:

 

[dsade]

Wait....triceps are horseshoe shaped?

 

[AE14]

see, I didnt know that either. Then, I am working on them, and this odd shape just keeps popping out. I was truly stunned:fool2:

 

[AE14]

early morning fasted cardio

40 minutes 15% 4.5-4.9mph

Will be back this afternoon for shoulders and more cardio. Will also d some abs since I will have the free time, which is something I also did last night

 

[crader]

Enjoying your free day? Hope you are, you deserve it!

 

[AE14]

Enjoying your free day? Hope you are, you deserve it!

thanks C. They are leaving in a minute, as is usual for that family, running late is an art form.

 

[AE14]

what a nice afternoon workout. no rush, just a lot of lifting and cardio and felt awesome

Shoulders:
Seated BB Press (8 sets) 205 8 reps
Upright rows (6 sets) 105lbs

Reverse Peck Deck (4 sets)75lbs
Seated DB Shrugs (4 sets) 110lbs
Seated DB Press (4 sets) 75lbs

I was fatigued as hell, but was loving it. I was drenched in sweat, which is great from just a lift. To make it better, I stept on the scale in shorts, tshirt, sneakers, ipod etc.... and weighed in at 202. :woo hoo:

Cardio:
40 minutes 4.5-5.0 15%

Awesome afternoon, got to come home, give the head a shave, now just relax and decide what I want to do about dinner. Ahhhhh..................

 

[AE14]

well, last night did not go as planned, but as always we find ways to make it work.

however, I did get my sunday morning cardio in.

40 minutes 15% 4.5-5.0mph

will go back this afternoon and figure out what I plan to do about legs.

 

[AE14]

Decided to use sunday as a catchup kinda day. I think you will see what I mean in a minute

Bike:
25 minutes 7% incline

Tmill:
40 minutes 15% 4.5-4.8mph

Calves (superset):
Standing calf raises (6 sets) 150lbs

Back:
Weighted pullups (7 sets) 25-35lbs to failure

Really wanted to see if I could hit a few different things today, and work on a few missing pieces. Was really surprised at how easy the weighted pullups were.

Tomorrow it is back to normal with chest and am cardio

 

[AE14]

Morning Cardio

35 minutes 15% 4.5-4.8mph

Tired as expected, but feel good. As is the norm, stomach feels great, no issues to report as all. I have not had a stomach problem in a while or gas problem for that matter.

Also, as an FYI, my sister is now on her 2nd bottle as well and got the 75 count

How is she feeling?

 

[AE14]

35 minutes 15% 4.5-4.9mph

feel good but tired, did not sleep all that well, lots of late night bathroom stops damn it

 

[Royd The Noyd]

Damn you and all your cardio! Props man

 

[AE14]

thanks man, I try like crazy. I know from experience what happens when I slack off, I gain weight like a lunatic. Drives me nuts. So I gotta hit the treadmill as much as possible.

 

[AE14]

Had a bit of afternoon cardio

30 minutes 15% 4.5-4.9

Also, wanted to add that I just received some protein. I am trying 2-1-1 recovery by ON (flet like I needed a post wo shake and I got this at a good price) I tried it after cardio this afternoon and it was quite tasty. I am interested to see how it interacts with GH. Should know by the am

 

[AE14]

AM Cardio and good news

AM cardio

31 minutes 15% 4.5-4.7mph Was a little slower today as it was real cold out for some reason, barely 50 degress, and I was actually a little shivery (not a real word) in the car


The good news is, that I actually did it. I weighed in after cardio, fully dressed at an even 200lbs. Which means I actually broke the 200 barrier for the first time in a decade :woohoo::afro:

 

[crader]

Great job on the 200. Seems like things are going well with diet and training.

 

[AE14]

they are moving along nicely. On a positive side, all the nonsense at home, has given me a lot of focus and time to really dedicate to training. I havent been this light in a decade, and I figure, since I am technically single again for the first time since the mid-late 90's, I better look my best :thumbsup:

 

[AE14]

[AE14]

[AE14]

Ok, a bit of fasted cardio this am

50 minutes 15% 4.5-4.8mph

Felt good, stomach feels great, and still looking lean. However a question to the RPN folks, not to be gross, however, is it normal to have really no urge to go to the bathroom at all. Only once in 3 days?

 

[AE14]

[dsade]

45 minutes 15% 4.5-4.9mph

also got in some calves
standing calf raises (5 sets) 180lbs
Seated calf raises (5 sets) 110lbs (all superset)

That's a hell of a calf blast.

 

[AE14]

That's a hell of a calf blast.

I am feeling it now too as I just got back. It seems that no matter what I do I cant get the calves to grow, although they get veiny as hell. Oh well, keep trucking along.


Also, the stomach problem I mentioned a few posts back has cleared itself with a little extra water consumption. Boy has it cleared it self.

Here was the afternoon

Tmill:
30 minutes 15% 4.5mph

Bike:
30 minutes 6% incline

Also through in some back, as I feel that since I switched to doing it 1x per week, it is lacking a bit.

Wide grip chins (4 sets)
Narrow grip reverse facing pulldowns (5 sets) 170lbs
Cobra pulldowns (4 sets) 150lbs
NG chins (5 sets)

Got a good pump, now I feel like I need a nap, but the good thing is the Steelers are on in 30 minutes :dance:

 

[AE14]

also, Tuesday I wont be around much. I have been asked to attend a conference ( a big deal for me and my possible eventual move up the ladder in my district). So I will not have my computer with me.

Tomorrow will be normal am fasted cardio, later pm chest. Then tuesday am fasted cardio and not back till late

 

[crader]

I hope your conferance goes well! We will be leaving on Thur. However I think I'll take the laptop.

 

[AE14]

good luck with the O, I am sure you guys will kick serious a$$.

also got in some morning cardio
35 minutes 15% 4.5

Had a slight pain in my ankle so I didnt change speeds and kept it somewhat lower impact

 

[AE14]

Had a very good chest workout tonight.

Flat BP (9 sets) 225 15 reps
Flat flys (4 sets) 40lbs
Incline DB press (4 sets) 85lbs
Incline flys (4 sets) 30lbs
Cross bench pullovers (4 sets) 80lbs

Good pump, and really started to fatigue a bit. I am going to be cutting back on the 211 recovery, as I am beginning to think that is what is causing the back up in the bathroom. Hopefully, with my conference tomorrow, it does not decide to shoot back to normal. That would be a bit embarassing.

 

[AE14]

a little am cardio

35 minutes 15% 4.4-4.7mph

feel good and ready to go.

I will be back on tonight, as I am leaving now to head to NJ for my conference

 

[crader]

Have a safe productive trip!

 

[AE14]

thanks C, it went very, very well, and it looks like more conferences will be heading my way in the future with most of the district admin. :woohoo:

 

[crader]

Awesome news...congrats!!

 

[AE14]

thanks C, it seems like it is only a matter of time, which is great as it is what I have wanted for a while, anbd most importantly it makes things financially so much easier in the future when I am a single dad

got in my morning cardio

33 minutes 15% 4.5-4.8mph

It is funny I got home late last night and took my GH at 10. I think my body is starting to adjust to the fact that I take it at bed time, and I almost get sleepy from it. It must be in my mind :lol: Otherwise I feel good, the stomach is causing no trouble at all
