I know I have been slacking on my posting, but I have had no time all week. My new temp job is taking a toll on me. I am so freaking tired all the time and it's taking me all my willpower and inner strength to keep on top of my diet and workouts. I have really found my groove with my diet...it's pretty much the same thing everyday, nice and simple.
M1-Lenders bagel, 2 tbl Natural PB
M2-4 oz turkey, salad, ff italian dressing
M3-apple or banana, 1 scoop protein
M4-4 plain unsalted rice cakes, 1/2 cup lf cottage cheese
M5-2 scoops protein
My workouts were:
Tues 1/13 - chest/biceps/glutes/hips
Wed 1/14-
Thur 1/15- shoulders/abs/cardio 45
Fri 1/16-abs/low back/15 cardio dead tired!
Sat 1/17
I had my training session which was back & tri's. So now we have gone through all my bodyparts and next week will do a full body routine to break it up and do one exercise, one set per bodypart. Following that we will be going over posing which I will also practice at home a few times a week in the mirror. Posing is not really required for Figure but still will help harden me up and prepare my body for the stage. I also have to email my trainer my diet sometime this week to make sure I don't slack. I have been using sugar free hot chocolate (sometimes with cinnamon and equal) to quell my hunger pains...it is working like a charm! Fills me up and helps me stay warm. After all it has been 20-30 below out there most of the week. It was 30 yesterday and it felt like summer, I didn't even need a coat. Ha! Too funny!
Oh, before I forget, here is my back/tri w/o:
DB Rows 3x12
Cable Bent Rows 3x12
BHN Wide Cable Pulldowns 3x12
Hydraulic PD Machine Narrow 3x12
Tri Rope Pressdowns 2x12
Tri Lying OH Ext 2x12
Hydraulic Tri Pressdowns 2x12
DB BHN Ext 2x12
abs/low back in between sets. very little rest between sets. On just about every exercise we did I found that my form was way off. Now that I know the correct form for each exercise maybe I can create a back! I definitely feel it now (the day after!)
