1500 cals is like a 1/3 of what I eat

at 1500 cals I would feel like I was getting a work out just watching the other people in the gym

Lucky Luke, 1500 cals went out the window as soon as I opened my mouth for the first bite of my food. It actually was pushed out the window while I was laughing....

I started boning up on monday regarding all facets of the diet that I was doing before and it is much healthier. We all have a little OCD in us. In my case, once I start a workout and a diet, they need to start at the same time. If they don't, then I stop them both and restart again "on monday". I didn't want to do it this time, so I went ahead with my workout and will continue on today once I get back from work. The meal plan will come next week. I am not splurging this week as I have said. I have eliminated a lot of the fat out of my diet this week and have eaten a reasonable amount of proteins, carbs and fats. I have bought light mayo, light cream cheese, 2% cheese and my ham and turkey are low sodium boars head, so I have shaved a lot of the bad out my eating. The carbs have been whole grain bread, a handfull of cheerios here and there, not too much though, and the morning bagel which I will stop eating once they run out (I hate to throw away money). This should all happen this week, so I'll start anew after the Super Bowl (how convenient, right?)
Anyway, young lady (how freaking condescending is that, I should just call you crazy), thanks for your support and believe me, you are free to critique anything that you want and I will listen, heck you're like my role model....
Oh, and speaking of models, nice AVI

Oh Mr. NT,

There is no bigger fan than myself of Mr. Jones. In fact, I don't think he was avoided so much as there was nobody left to fight in his division since he just beat up everybody. Thus, his short trip to the heavyweights and easy win over that gloryfied sack of potatoes John Ruiz. Not to take anything away from Roy, in fact, I think that night, he could have beaten a lot of heavys. I also think that after that night, he lost some steam. I'll repeat and repeat that he lost to Tarver that first fight and the proof came in the second fight. He's getting hit too much.
Regarding the quote, that is the most original thing I have ever heard a sports figure say in any interview. That's the epitome of the underdog, that quote....

As I am typing this my hands are shaking and I am still queezy....

When I sat down on this chair to type, my legs just gave out on me. The mere thought of food makes me nauseous. Having said all this, I am very happy with my workout. Not so much for the weight, but because I used good form and busted my ass to reach failure in each routine. Here it goes:

-Leg Curls: 8 x 110
-Leg Extension: 11 x 140
-Leg Press: 8 x 270 (I said I could do more. That felt great....)
-Straight Arm Pullover: 13 x 45
-Bent Over row with palms facing out: 10 x 80 (I used lower weight but much better form. Still my lower back was bothering me a bit, but it's just sore)
-Overhead Press: 9 x 110
-Bicep Curl with barbell: 9 x 50 (Lowered the weight to apply proper form and was able to do 9 reps)

All in all I find this workout to be successful. I think I found the right weights in most of them but I am still working on finding the correct weight in only a couple.
Right now I am going to bathe as I am supposed to, even if I just want to lay down in my room and cry....
In fact, I am going to seat here for a moment and gather myself....
This whole thing took me 10 minutes to write because my fingers and forearms simply don't want to respond....

Something funny....

My 1 year old son learned to walk before he turned 1. Now he's running around....
Now for the funny part, I was sitting down eating dinner just now and my son flew by me and into the kitchen. He started playing with the kitchen cabinets by opening and closing them. I say, "Anthony Stop!!!!" loudly, so he stops, looks at me and literally starts slamming the cabinet doors. I get off the table to go to the kitchen and as I do that I literally fell sideways and couldn't catch my balance. So I fell on the floor. As I fell down I was cracking up because I remember a sketch in "In Living Color" when Jim Carey makes believe that he pulls off his fake leg and just falls sideways.....I guess you had to see that....However, that wasn't the funniest part, I went to push myself off the ground and again fell sideways because my left arm gave out on me. I almost cracked my eyebrow against the floor.....
Either way, I am walking around my house on very unsteady legs and my arms are worthless, and I worked out 1 hour ago....
I have to tell you, this is one of my best workouts in years, including all of last year because I finally understood that good form + slower speed + failure = PAIN!!!!!!!
My shoulder is feeling great, my joints are kicking ...I am very satisfied with HIT

After my second workout, I can report no shoulder pain of any sort. Well, let me rephrase that. My shoulders hurt, but not the actual rotator, my body is a mess.
I am sore everywhere, but that, I am happy about....
It's amazing what two little workouts can do for you. Today I feel stronger and somewhat larger than yesterday and the proof is in the pudding.....My sleeves feel somewhat tighter (believe it or not), so I either got fatter or I have attained a little size in two workouts (probably my muscles going back to their form from before I got hurt)....

GREAT W/O Tony!! I'm proud of you. And your shoulder should do very well on this IMO. That's why I recommended this style of training to come back, it was great on my injuries and you'll see gains fairly quickly. Again, awesome w/o. Feel great about it



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...

Gracias Dave....

I am not too worried about the gains, I am more worried about the losses
The gains are definitely happening, even after two measly workouts, but I am more hoping that there will be mounting losses....
