Tilapia is a type of fish. Pretty good. Low cal, low fat, high protein (not a good source of EFAs, but good source of protein).

**Luke9583** · 11-01-2004, 07:14 PM

and it tastes excellent!

Chest/Back

Superset 1

Bench Press 4 x 65lb x 15/12/12/10
Bent Over Rows 4 x 40lb x 20 <--- 50lb ez bar was missing, made up for in reps (should I even do that? does it make a difference

Superset 2

Nat. Incline 3 x 45lb x 15
Wide Grip Pulldow 2 x 60lb x 15/1 x 65lb x 13 <--- failure

Superset 3

Nat. Chest Flies 3 x 45lb x 15
Cable Seated Row 3 x 60lb x 15/15/13

Bicep/Tricep

Hammer Curls 3 x 15lb x 15/12/12
Cable Pushdowns 3 x 60lb x 15/15/13
Reverse Grip Cable Pushdowns 3 x 30lb x 15
Regular Dumbell Curls 3 x 15lb x 15/13/12

Cardio

Stairmaster, Fat Burner Plus (Intervals), Level 20, 25 minutes. <--- more energy than yesterday, I guess because my legs weren't fatigued today since I didn't work out legs.

-----------

I had to change the order/circuit training stuff around a bit because of the availability of equipment (or lack thereof) if I go through one of my giant supersets. People take over stations while I step away, so I grouped them into super sets, so i could easily work in with one person or another, or keep my dumbells or bar near wherever I was doing a Nat. exercise.

Overall, I felt really good. I wish I'd had someone to spot me for bench so I could go a little heavier, but 4 sets at 65lb on my own was great, regardless. I'm too shy to ask people for help. That, and I don't want any of the guys to think that means I want them to talk to me while I work out. I just need a spot.

The whoring can continue here, but for my workouts and food, please refer to this other thread from now on, if you care about that sort of thing.

Do what I do. Wear head phones when you work out and avoid eye contact.

When you need help, look around for the person you feel can give you a good spot,

walk over, take the headphones off and ask for a spot. During the spot, put the headphones back on.

When you are done, take only one ear bud out and says thanks, and talk long enough to stretch

if you feel so inclined. Then get back to work

Good tip. I will try to do that on thursday (well Friday, Thursdays I don't need help!). You would think I wouldn't have a problem talking to people, but I'm SOOOOO SHY at the gym, or intimidated or something. I don't know. I am a wuss. hahahahaha!

i'm working on upping them... slowly. the carbs.. i'm having issues with the carbs. hahaha!

I'd like to be between 1200-1300, as you can see i'm close to 1200 right now.

Thing is since i'm getting up earlier, i'm eating like 7 meals a day. i have to REMIND myself that it's ok that my cals will be higher, but i start freaking out. So far though, though it's only been a few days, my body's reacting well. No bloating, still feeling/looking lean. Good energy level. I should be brave enough to break 1200 or 1250 by next week

I AM!!!! outside of the gym. In the gym, for some reason, I'm like a completely different person. I don't like to talk to people, and i am embarassed to ask someone to let me work in with them, and of course, embarassed to ask for a spot. I DONT KNOW WHY!

Yet, anywhere else, I'll talk to anyone within a 5-foot radius.

**klmclean** · 11-02-2004, 09:57 AM

Good morning GG!

I checked out your new competition journal, looking good!

It shold have shocked your back, as in it isn't used to doing all that volume? I bet you will feel it tomorrow!

I ask people all the time to give me a spot if I need one. I just find someone that i think would help, give him instructions on how I like to be spotted and get to it.
After the set, I say thanks, and if need another spot, ask if they could help me after their set.
