Willing to try anything once....wtf

[katt]

I've got my want back...
gonna try the new schedule next week...

YAY!!

I know... after last weekend's partys & all... I was sluggish to get back into the gym.... but once I got there, it was like "dang..this feels good!"..

 

[Burner02]

...I miss having a hottub...when I buy my next house...a hot tub shall be mandatory...

shall help alleviate said sluggish-ness!

 

[SamEaston]

Oooh, a hot tub sounds fab!!

Katt - hows the DOMS now that you're doing high reps?

 

[katt]

We have a hot tub and yes, it helps alot... but it usually puts me to sleep!

Doms.... nothing to write home about so far,, this is just weird... It takes me about 2 days to feel any soreness or stiffness, but today I feel good,, I mean I can tell I worked out, but I'm not " really sore"..

After the burn I felt, I figured there would be something

But we are still taking Glutamine before & after our workouts, so that may help some... using Glutamine is so controversial anyway, who knows?

 

[Burner02]

Oooh, a hot tub sounds fab!!

See...
REASON #2 to get hot tub...

What's the line in the movie:
If you build it, they will come...

Try not using it for a workout and see if it makes a big difference. I remember when i forgot my BCAAs and Glutamine mix i couldn't walk right for 2 weeks.

And why would I want to do that????

 

[Brutus_G]

If its not doing anything why waste money?

Oh, I took to mean,, don't take it and get the soreness back.... ahhhhhh,, now I get what you meant...

 

[Brutus_G]

yes get sore katt dont you enjoy limping .

 

[katt]

ok tonight was 30 minutes on the stepmill... gawd that thing is hard.. level 4 for the most part,,, sweat sweat sweat...

 

[SamEaston]

Yeah, i thought high reps would give you major DOMS. Oh well - maybe the glutamine really is working.

 

[katt]

ok, so I'm still having a little problem figuring out the weights for the 12 rep range.. today, everything felt too heavy I thought maybe my higher carb day could be tomorrow, but we have a bbq to go to on Sunday,, so I'll have to wait until then, I guess...

(35) 1x12
(40) 1x12

good morning!
think the ewight thing was mental? You did 95 w/ ease...maybe psyched yourself out a little w/ the extra weight?

The rest looks great though!
