About that time I (nutrition)

fufu · 10-07-2006, 02:17 PM

I highly recommend buckwheat blueberry and banana pancakes.

I got a free "Detour Go" bar in my last order of supps. How do you like those bars?

Double D · 10-07-2006, 02:23 PM

Detour Go? I dont think I have had one or atleast I dont think so. The detour protein bars with 30 grams or protein and 330 cals are ok, I dont think they are great! But they taste ok.

fufu · 10-07-2006, 02:26 PM

Yeah this one is like a carb bar, it doesn't have alot of sugar in it though, not even sugar alcohols. I wonder how they pulled that off.

Double D · 10-07-2006, 02:30 PM

It is going to suck! Send it to me........

Double D · 10-07-2006, 02:45 PM

Hey I kinda did something very bad. I drank 4 ounces of Mt.Dew. First soda I have drank in probably a year or more. Oh wow was it sweet. I felt like I did something horribly wrong. Like I am going to jail or something.

fufu · 10-07-2006, 03:24 PM

lol, I know that feeling. 4 ounces isn't too much though. Probably like 15 grams of sugar or so.

Double D · 10-07-2006, 03:26 PM

Was awefully ridiculous. I have guys I work here with and they drink like 3 or 4 20 ounce Mt.Dew's a day. That is unreal!

Double D · 10-07-2006, 05:14 PM

Well Here goes

Meal 2
chicken breast
Flax oil
32 ounces water (with crystal light)
Red Potato

Meal 3
Detour Bar
2 tbsp nat. pb
32 ounces water

Tom_B · 10-07-2006, 05:28 PM

hahah great meal 1! I'm sure that helped get those calories/carbs up! LOL don't worry about the mountain dew .. that's less that 100 Calories!
Have you been able to make any gains with the current breakdown in your diet?
Don't worry I'll defintly be reading and lurking

Good luck on your goals!

Double D · 10-07-2006, 05:32 PM

Well as far as strength goes I dont know I have only been on westside for about 2 weeks now and I am only going 3 days a week for now. That is because I am working 80-90 hours a week right now and that includes weekends. Hell i am at work right now! But everything seems fuller and harder, no pun intended. If it wasnt for all the working hours I am sure I would feel much better but I havent been getting a whole lot of sleep. However last night I got 9 hours and feel great today!

Welcome to my journal and I would love if you stuck around.

Tom_B · 10-07-2006, 05:55 PM

Arg ... I hope the month flies by for ya so you can get back into your regular hours .. I couldn't imagine working 80-90 hours a week

I can defintly relate on how shitty lack of sleep is, can really ware you down.
Good job on the 9 hours of sleep though!

Well my mom took the kids for the night so I had time to sleep in. Thank god! They like to get up at 6 or 7. And i dont get to bed until 1 because I get off of work at 12. Sucks sometimes. I expect whenever I get time off and I am back to my regular scheledule I will get stronger and eventually be able to get to that 400lbs bench and 500+ deadlift. I dont know where my squat is but I want it around 425 or so.

Double D · 10-07-2006, 06:35 PM

Thinking about doing some sprints. What do you guys think with all of the things I already have on my plate, along with my westside training?

Double D · 10-07-2006, 06:54 PM

I looked back and found this that CP had said about doing sprints while doing westside:

"I say yes. Sprints do amazing things in terms of setting off the "oh shit" alarm inside your body. The massive devouring of ATP that your body does during a sprint leads to a serious surge in ADP and AMP levels, which means your body now needs to adapt. It can't have this surge in AMP/ADP levels, because that means ATP levels are lacking. So, this leads to a greater propensity to store glycogen in muscle. As well, you get a nice metabolic boost for quite a while post workout because of the massive EPOC you induce during sprints."

So I guess they are a go, unless someone can tell me why they shouldnt be?

JerseyDevil · 10-07-2006, 07:21 PM

It's going to be hard to gain working 80-90 hours a week. Is this your regular schedule, or are you just working a ton of overtime?

Double D · 10-07-2006, 07:41 PM

Ton of ot. We got an older guy out because he had surgery. Came back to soon and now he is out like 2 months. My job is pretty easy as far as labor goes. I basically cook oil using a computer. Its almost constant sitting. But yeah the sleep is an issue. I know right now would be tough to try and throw some sprints in there, but I want to make such an impact on my body that it makes a positive change. So I wanted to get some thought on that from you guys.

fufu · 10-07-2006, 07:43 PM

Can you access IM from work?

Double D · 10-07-2006, 07:45 PM

Thats where I am right now. I never get on here at home. Almost all of my posts are from at work. So as you can see I get alot of net time. Haha
