Very selfish of you.

I think it was the low carbs and/or the 20 reps on the leg exercises.

Posted by: Twin Peak

Cool. I am off the hook then, since I didn't proscribe the workouts. Jodi, please tell your family it wasn't my fault.

What's wrong with my workout? Do you know why I do high reps?

Nope TP, I've already blamed you, deal with it.

Ok, this past winter during a bulk and the beginning of a cut I went all out and freaked on my legs in hopes to add mass. I was squatting 225 pounds, leg pressing close to 600 pounds for 8-10 reps. Well needless to say my quads got freaking HUGE and I mean HUGE for my body. Well they were no longer proportionate to my body. So, in April, I started a long term process of shrinking them to a normal size but keep definition and muscle and hopes that they don't turn to fat. My 20 rep workouts have been very successful and my legs are back down to a normal 21" again and still very muscular.

Posted by: naturalguy

that makes sense.

I think the guesstimate 300G of carbs I ate yesterday might have something to do with me bloated today.

Posted by: freeman1504

just make sure you don't go too heavy and have shitty form...keep those elbows from coming in.

Posted by: Jodi

I do, sometimes I think I am doing them wrong though because I can do 30lbs on each stack and that seems high

Posted by: freeman1504

That's probably right for you. You're pretty strong girl. I usually do them with 50lbs per side.

Posted by: Pat

Thanks for the welcome

30 lbs sound right for you Jodi...i do 30 as well...its a great stabilizing exercise and once in a while i throw them in as well.

Posted by: Pat

Hello, J'Bo

Posted by: Twin Peak

Its all relative. On one machine you may do 30, on another 50, and yet another 10. It depends on the machine, the number of pulleys the cable goes through, etc.

Posted by: Jodi

Yeah this one is a dual pulley and I know that tends to lighten the load a bit. Thats ok makes me feel strong

Posted by: Twin Peak

My point is, simply, don't worry about it.

excellent thanks, and your fine self, how is it going?

Posted by: Jodi

Its going quite well thank you. TP says I'm doing fine and on track but its just around the corner so I would be lying if I said I wasn't scared.

Posted by: naturaltan

as well you should be ... I think we'd worry if you weren't a little scared, but you'll do great! Is there going to be someone to take pictures? If you don't post them, you'll have to bring them to Vegas for us to see!

Posted by: freeman1504

She better freakin' post them!!!!!

Posted by: Jodi

Depends on how I look

There will be pictures whether I post them or not is a different story

Posted by: naturaltan

ok ... 'how I look' Whatever!

Well I don't know how I'm gonna look.

btw Jodi ... we (Trisha and I) purchased our tickets to the halloween party on the 25th of October in Vegas.

Posted by: Jodi

Cool how much were they?

Posted by: naturaltan

it came out to 138 for the two ... here is the ph # I called 1 888 234 2334

now we're forced to come up with a couple of cool costumes. We're going to another halloween party the Friday after we get back ... it's a big one as well. A local rock station holds several big parties each year ... I think this is one of the best attended - maybe 3000 people!

Parties on ...

Posted by: Jodi

OMG - what does that include?

Posted by: naturaltan

entrance in ...

... giving us the opportunity to party with 5000 nearly naked people ...

Posted by: Jodi

I think I might need to pass on that.

Posted by: naturaltan

ok ... I think Studio 54 is the bar of the night plus the Olympia finals!

Posted by: Jodi

So I hate cardio. I mean I really hate cardio and worse than cardio, I hate HIIT.

But TP has instructed 2 20 mins. HIIT per week so I have no choice.

I refuse to use those stupid cadio machines, I can't run anymore cuz of my knee and shin splints and I just hate cardio.

However, the only thing I like is my bike and I LOVE my bike. I look forward to going out riding and really enjoy it. Unfortunately doing HIIT on a Mt. Bike is not easy and the last thing I want to do is ruin the one cardio thing I like by trying HIIT on it. The other think I like/tolerate is Spinning, it doesn't come close to my bike but with the right music and with my eyes closed I make it so where I do enjoy it.

So, tonight I strapped on my heart rate monitor, turned on my MP3 player which I downloaded so killer music for HIIT and used the empty Spinning room for my HIIT session tonight. Let me tell ya, I don't think I have ever sweat so much in my life. I had the best cardio ever that I was forced to do.

I feel so good right now. I brought my HR up to 95% during the interval. Thank god I found a way to handle how I was going to do my HIIT.

Sorry just had to express myself

Posted by: freeman1504

hah ayeah I HATE cardio too. I feel like I should do some, just for health reasons, but I'm just starting to figure this whole "get stronger and bigger" thing out, so I'll save the cardio for later...

cool! glad you liked it. i'm going to try apple next.

question for you....how important do you think the green veggies are for results? not for keeping you full but for actual results? i hate them. i really do. i know that's not the right thing to say but i find them to be a huge pain and they're the thing i mess up with the most.

i know they're good for us. i swear i do. but if i stick with a good multi and follow the rest of the plan....(and not cheat b/c i'm less full w/out the veggies to fill me up) would it be a disaster?

i think i shouldn't be asking this - but i just want to be excused from eating my veggies. please? lol

Posted by: Jodi

Apple should be here anyday. I'll send you some.

We'll have to check with TP on the veggies.

I love veggies so its never a problem for me. What about peppers, onions, muchrooms stuff like that

Posted by: nikegurl

i do like mushrooms. pretty good to add them to eggs as an omlette but wasn't sure if they could be used as a "green veggie" on this plan.

it's so bad but i just hate most veggies and i really hate preparing them and planning for them (and buying them and storing them)

true confessions are just pouring out. get me excused from veggies and i'll be eternally grateful

TP always tells me I should have veggies. but I can't stand them and they take to long to make because I hate reheating them.

So I've done the carb cycling without veggies for the most part.

You can continue fat loss with out veggies. You are just compromising your long term health. As well, it add to a sense of satiety, promotes good digestion, and so much more.

Get veggies frozen and nuke em, or out of a can. Or get a salad.

Posted by: Jodi

NG - Check this out. I found a huge list of veggies for ya

Fibrous Veggies

Posted by: nikegurl

frozen is very doable. i'm sure fresh is better but sometimes frozen has to be better than none. i love cucumbers but figure that i should eat others. jodi - thanks so much for your list. i LOVE artichoke hearts. (there's hope here)

i'll make sure i eat veggies every day...lazy isn't the way to go here. i just may not get 3 servings. i promise i'll always manage at least 2 though. thanks!

How much does that BB weigh??? Is it the big 45 lb'der???

Posted by: Jodi

Yup its the 45er, I know its a pathetic workout but my legs are very muscular and I don't want ANY growth on them.

Posted by: butterfly

Yeah I remember you saying that now!

Posted by: Jodi

Maybe someday I'll have a real leg workout again

Posted by: naturaltan

I love the sig!!

Just a question, but wouldn't it help to put on some weight that you could feel and do the high reps? I know you're very strong and it seems a waste to be just doing the BB when you could put more weight on ...

Posted by: Jodi

No because of it being a continuous set, 1 right after another I do eventually hit failure, I work up quite a sweat and my legs are like jelly when I'm done

Posted by: naturaltan

ok! Sounds reasonable to me ...

Hey Jodi!

Posted by: Jodi

Today was a very difficult day.

I had to say goodbye to my one of my sisters because she is moving. She is my best friend. She's my favorite sister and the biggest reason I moved back here in the first place. I'm having a very difficult time with this. Her fiance has been relocated to Chicago. I've been

all day and I can't stop. We can't stand being apart too long and I don't know how I'm going to handle this because its killing me. I feel so alone without her.

Posted by: tigerboo

im sorry jodi, i know how it is. Me and my brother are very close too, and now that I'm in college its been difficult.

Posted by: sara

I'm sorry to hear that jodi

Posted by: J'Bo

i am with yah too Jodi...5 years ago my sister/best friend left for Calgary.

when we see eachother now every minute counts and you never waste precious time. it has brought us closer.

Posted by: freeman1504

Hang in there Jodi. I'm with J'bo, it may very well make you guys even closer. Also, now you have a perfect reason to go to Chicago a few times a year!

I have had my own personal negative digestive experience while experimenting with NO vegies, NO fruit, and just a half cup oats for breakfast....all meat and pro bars n shakes for meals.... Oh yea, I lost 10 lbs of bf in 2 weeks so TECHNICALLY it worked, but OMG my lifts fell, constipaton from you know where, and My physician says blood in the stool is not a symptom of good health.......I am dieting slow rather than rip my bowels to shreds.

10 lbs in 2 weeks is not fat loss...maybe 2 lbs of it is...maybe even three but the rest is fluid.

Posted by: Jodi

What the fuck are you people writing about in my journal.

Posted by: Jodi

My sister and I are extemely close. We spend alot of time with each other and share so much. I feel empty. As if my life wasn't lonely enough

Sorry don't mean to rant and sound so pathetic, its just yet another dissapointment in my life that I must overcome. Thanks guys for your support.

It's not too humid here come Winter. It gets nice out. Real crisp and cool, and I love it! It's the other 8-9 months out of the year that I can't stand the heat and humidity!!

Posted by: Jodi

I need a kick in the ass. I woke up really late today, I think my depressed state is making me tired, 2 days in a row 10 hours sleep. I'm so bummed out about life that I just don't care this weekened. I didn't go to the gym like I was suppose to, I ate a handful of peanuts at my grandparents.

Looks like I better skip on the eggs tonight.

So I guess I'm a whiney, pussy, crybaby lately. That would probably have a lot to do with how much MY LIFE SUCKS!!!!!!

Posted by: donescobar2000

Well I personally feel like shyt. i finally went to the beach today and I ate shyt that was not helping my diet. I really had not choice. I ate an omelette, white bread w/ butter, skim milk and raisin bran cereal. There was some fried potatos and four slices of that white bread. I only ate 2 of them. I said screw the potatoes. This inactivity shyt is driving me crazy. Actually its depressing me. I bought "Body For Life" today. Its a bunch of crap I already know. The whole day I felt lazy, unmotivated and I got tired fast. I wanted to do was sit. I feel like I'm turning into a ball of fat. At least you can hit the gym. I probably have 2 to 3 more weeks. I hate my endomorphic ways.

Its just alot happening in my life lately that is one disappointment after another after another. I'll put out of it eventually. I don't want to whine or cry about it anymore as I sound pathetic and weak and I don't like that.
