Lol, if I got a video, I would never do it. I'd need a 1 on 1 instructor and a place to go other than my house

So happy to go to the gym today...I've been procrastinating on packing (moving in 2 wks then again in july

) so i made myself a deal, no gym until i did laundry and packed up 3 boxes. no being online either!

finished 3 boxes and actually cleaned the apt too, bonus!

Sat. May 28th
Chest/Tris
(30sec RIs)
SMBP- 50x 15, 10, 10 (WEAK!?

)
Incline BP- 15sx 15, 15, 15
Incline DBFlyes- 10sx 12, 5sx 15, 15

Hi Cable Tri pushdown
RG Cable pulldown
Cable OH skull
Tri-set these 50x15, 15, 40x15
DB kickbacks- 10sx15, 15, 15
OH tri extensions- 10x15, 15, 15

Cardio- 40 min elliptical, HI/LOW intervals, 525 cals

not sure why i was struggling w/ the BP...might have hit the chest in the shoulder w/o yesterday...? probably didn't stretch enough either.

usually do FB DB presses, i like the incline bench though. works the outer chest more, where the shoulder joins... felt like it anyway.

mixed it up for the tris, tri set worked well, all on the high cable so its like 45 reps straight before a rest. i need to find something that really targets the top of the tri by the armpit...the outside part is doing fine... thoughts??

cardio session kicked ass. the new sports illustrated was in the mail box when i left and i finished reading it right at 40 min, perfect!!

Seanp156 · 05-28-2005, 04:19 PM

Wow, nice w/o 525 cals on the elliptical

.

Archangel · 05-28-2005, 04:20 PM

Cris2Blis · 05-28-2005, 06:21 PM

Cris2Blis · 05-28-2005, 06:28 PM

Seanp156 · 05-28-2005, 06:33 PM

Nice work Cris, I can see the abs setting in

. Don't make me jealous about salmon.... I can't cook so my diet is a staple of eggs, salad, canned tuna, whole wheat bread, peanut butter, and a few other things

. Now I wanna go eat to eat and buy a $14 salmon dinner !

And...where are you moving?

Cris2Blis · 05-28-2005, 06:48 PM

if i can make this salmon, anyone can! its gortons brand, in the freezer section. they come in packs of 2 and you can even microwave them if u want. i doubt that would taste good though. they've got 2 or 3G fat, and 19G protein. i got the char-grilled kind. they are on sale at kroger for like $3 a box!

Seanp156 · 05-28-2005, 06:55 PM

Lol, I used the microwave for just about everything, I have almost no idea how to use a stove, oven, or grill.

Egoatdoor · 05-28-2005, 08:52 PM

Cris, you scam artist! Those pics... you say you are NOT lean??? Look at those abs. Those ripples in your middle back.

Of course, I can't see your legs, but from those shots, its hard to believe you are over 150 pounds. Its certainly muscle, not fat.

gwcaton · 05-28-2005, 08:54 PM

Nice wo Cris

Pics looking good, nice shoulders

really nice abs

b_reed23 · 05-28-2005, 09:52 PM

hey cris....those gordons salmon patties do taste good in the microwave, I make them quite often...if your getting tired of tuna, why not switch to some lean turkey? I really lean kind only has 130 cals and 28 g. of protein per 4 oz...I love it!

Nice pics, your in great shape! I'm kinda scared to post pics of me now...

not a scam artist! as of this morning i am 150 on the dot! thanks for the kind words though... and more importantly thanks for the initial information when i first started the journal

i've always been stuck on the 150lb number rather than being proud of the work i do to be fit and dedicated to fitness in general. and i guess i dont LOOK that heavy b/c of the muscle... actually the nurse who weighed me on fri was shocked when i was 150... she said "you just don't look like you weigh more than 130, it must be your shoes." Yes maam, that must be it, i am wearing 20lb shoes, LOL.

Pylon · 05-29-2005, 08:11 AM

Hey yo...Sorry haven't been around, been a little under the weather.

If I didn't know, I would have guessed high 120s or 130 from looking at the pictures. I'm sure people look at you and have no idea you are 150. The scale is just a number. I have co workers who are 115 and are soft, flabby and out of shape...nowhere near what you look like.

Cris2Blis · 05-29-2005, 02:19 PM
