Agreed, good trick.

Rocco32 · 12-12-2004, 11:26 AM

I count reps to fall asleep, LOL.

M.J.H. · 12-14-2004, 11:54 AM

BigDyl: Agreed man, sleep makes a huge difference for me as well. Lately for some reason my schedule has been so f*cked up, that I am getting 6.5 hours sleep even when I can sleep in all day.

simbh: Great post man, thanks for the advice about sleep. I am definitely going to try and put it to use. And about my diet, it's pretty much spontaneous for the most part. I never have any idea what I am going to eat. I try to on my days off from work, but it's still kind of tough. Thanks for the post.

Mudge: Yeah, I am going to give it a shot.

rock: LOL, maybe I'll try that, too.

Monday; 12-13-2004

Training:

Took a rest day today, which I don't know if I needed, but I was totally stressed out today about my girlfriend. Finally we broke up, thank God. Come to find out the girl is compulsively lying to me, just a shame I wasted my time.

Diet:

Meal 1: MRP + 2% milk
Meal 2: mixed nuts
Meal 3: tuna & cheese sandwich, apple
Meal 4: MRP bar
Meal 5: peanut butter

Diet sucked today, I was stressed, not appetite.

Sleep: 7.5 hours.

**P-funk** · 12-14-2004, 12:53 PM

what was she lying about??

M.J.H. · 12-14-2004, 01:34 PM

Patrick: Hey man, thanks for stopping by. She was randomly lying about stuff that doesn't matter at all. For example someone stopped in her work to say hi and she told me it was a female friend, when it was a guy friend. She is used to the posessive type of boyfriend I think, and trust/communication is everything to me.

BigDyl · 12-14-2004, 03:31 PM

I can understand, sorry to hear that man. Usually people eat to make themselves feel better, you must be the opposite, lol. Man, peanut butter and mixed nuts are not meals.

simbh · 12-14-2004, 03:57 PM

Yeah , Ill say it again monstar , you gotta plan your meals better and eat more !

At least you havn't got on a eating junk food spree... Keep it up , and keep the moral up dude.

If you are short in time for your meals. Try making a whole bunch of food on a sunday night so you have food to microweave for a few days. I dont know , like cook 4-5 chicken breast at the same time , so itll be quick to eat and youll be able to stick better to your diet. Its what I do , and it helps a lot.

M.J.H. · 12-14-2004, 05:09 PM

BigDyl: Yeah man, I don't know what my problem is. When I get really stressed out I don't want to eat at all, I am all worried, etc. Normally, though, when I am somewhat bored I want to binge. Doesn't make much sense, I know.

simbh: Yeah I should really get into the habit of a more regular bunch of meals. For some reason I always end up slacking off and don't feel like eating, etc. My appetite gets so affected by everything in my life, it's really ridiculous to be honest. If I get a little bit stressed about something my appetite goes down the tubes. Oh well.

M.J.H. · 12-14-2004, 05:09 PM

Hello.

**CowPimp** · 12-14-2004, 10:13 PM

Sounds like you were waiting to break up with that girl... Either way, sorry about the failed relationship. I'm sure you'll be back into the game in no time.

M.J.H. · 12-15-2004, 11:20 AM

BritChick: Hey there, nice to see that you're still reading!

CowPimp: Well currently we're in the process of working things out. We'll see what happens. I am not sure how things are going to go at this point, honestly. I hope for the best, but I question certain things as well. Thanks for stopping by, bud.

This seems pretty high volume--im curious, are these sets to failure?

I think I could do the same with at least 110's or 115's on the dumbells, can you still bench 350?

Well, these are all experiences we go through, we take the good and the bad...

Spontaneous diet, hmmmmm I know that diet

S.T. · 12-15-2004, 05:07 PM

That's great that you are getting more serious with your workouts. I have a friend up at my gym who decided to stop hanging out with his usual crowd because they just weren't interested in doing anything good with themselves. He's added some size, since I first met him. Also, many of the guys at my gym want to go pro one day. One guy came pretty close, but ate some bad chicken on the day of his contest and got sick so he couldn't compete very well.

But definitely hang in there with your workouts. It does pay off in the end.

M.J.H. · 12-15-2004, 07:25 PM

BigDyl: Hey bud, my sets are usually pretty close to failure. Sometimes to failure, but I try not to go to total muscular failure too often. I am not sure if I can still bench 350 to be honest. I know that I hit 350 for a single about 6 months ago I guess it is now. Back when I was training Westside style. Since then I haven't been training for strength at all. Thanks for stopping by, man.

Mudge: I agree man. Yeah, my diet is definitely too spontaneous, that's for sure, lol.

S.T.: I am trying harder now than ever to get dedicated and focused with my training and eating. Trying to eliminate binging completely. No matter what it takes. I am at the point where I will pig out on clean food, sometimes. Just to get myself that overly "full" feeling. I just don't want to slip.

M.J.H. · 12-15-2004, 07:25 PM

Wednesday; 12-15-2004

Training:

T-Bar Rows
5 sets of 5 with 340

Nautilus Pullovers

2 sets of 4 with 295

BTN Cable Pulldowns
3 sets of 12 with 170

Bentover DB Lateral Raises
2 sets of 12 with the 40's

Great workout tonight, really blasted the hell out of my lats, hard. Started off with ghetto style t-bar rows, blasted my midback and mid-traps hard. Moved onto some heavy pullovers and some BTN pulldowns. Nice sets. Then some bentover lateral raises. Overall my workout wasn't too shabby.

Diet:

Meal 1: turkey & cheese sandwich
Meal 2: 1/2 turkey & cheese sandwich, mixed fruit
Meal 3: tuna salad sandwich
Preworkout: 1 scoop of Swole
Postworkout: whey protein + 1% milk
Meal 5: 2 low-fat stuffed chicken breasts, broccoli + cheese, rice

**CowPimp** · 12-15-2004, 10:24 PM

Thursday; 12-16-2004

Training:

ATF Squats
4 sets of 4 with 315

Nautilus Lying Leg Curls
3 sets of 12 with 160

Nautilus Leg Extensions
4 sets of 8 with 260

Seated Calf Raises
4 sets of 12 with 195

Vertical Leg Raises
3 sets of 12

Damn, I haven't trained my legs at all in the past couple of weeks or so. I totally forgot how exhausting it is. Those 4 sets of 4 in deep squats kicked my friggin' a*s. Overall workout was good, though.

Diet:

Meal 1: tuna salad sandwich
Meal 2: chicken salad sandwich, apple
Preworkout: 1 scoop of Swole
Postworkout: whey protein + 1% milk
Meal 4: grilled chicken soft taco
Meal 5: BBQ chicken pizza
Meal 6: 1 quart of Won-Ton soup
Meal 7: 1% milk

Diet was okay today, the BBQ chicken pizza that I had wasn't horrible for you, either. High in fat, but not too bad, it was 51g of protein, 99g of carbs, and 26g of fat. Could have been worse, IMO, not bad for pizza. The Won-Ton soup was just great!

Sleep: 7.5 hours, not bad at all.

ncgirl21 · 12-17-2004, 07:13 AM

Hey Mike

How have you been? Journal is looking good!!

I've never had the won-ton soup, just the won-ton's. I'll have to try it next time I get Chinese! Have a good one!

simbh · 12-17-2004, 07:32 AM

Thats a fine diet Monstar (Ill just call you mike , seems better) . Its actually good , since you had a sort of cheat , but didn't go overboard like you say you did before. If you want a little trick for eating a pizza and taking out a bit of fat. Since the fat is in the cheese , what I do is I take a bunch of napkins or scott towel and I put it on the pizza and let them take out a good amount of fat. You'd be surprise how much fat you can avoid with that.

Keep it up mike , you're doing greeeeeeeeeeaaaaaatttttttt like tony the tiger says.

M.J.H. · 12-17-2004, 05:15 PM

Andrea: Hey there! Thanks for stopping by, appreciate it. Yeah won-ton soup is definitely something that I love! Probably not the best thing for you, but this time around I am just trying to steer clear of sugar and alcohol for now. Not trying to be too strict.

simbh: Yeah exactly man, that's what I am thinking. Slightly cheating here and there to avoid a binge, I don't have any problem with that at all for the time being. I am going to slowly bring some cheats into my diet, nothing too extreme, basically just to avoid going overboard and binging. Thanks again for the support.

	I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Since the fat is in the cheese , what I do is I take a bunch of napkins or scott towel and I put it on the pizza and let them take out a good amount of fat. You'd be surprise how much fat you can avoid with that. Keep it up mike , you're doing greeeeeeeeeeaaaaaatttttttt like tony the tiger says.

Yeah won-ton soup is definitely something that I love! Probably not the best thing for you, but this time around I am just trying to steer clear of sugar and alcohol for now. Not trying to be too strict. simbh: Yeah exactly man, that's what I am thinking. Slightly cheating here and there to avoid a binge, I don't have any problem with that at all for the time being. I am going to slowly bring some cheats into my diet, nothing too extreme, basically just to avoid going overboard and binging. Thanks again for the support.
