So are you going to continue switching? Do HIT for a month, something else for 2 weeks, back to HIT...etc?

I'm not sure what my plan is for January. I've seen great strength gains using HIT but I haven't really seen much of a "body change" (probably because I haven't changed my diet too much).

My deal is that I'd like to be in the gym 3-4 days plus my one day of football. I think I'll worry about strength until March then I'll reduce my cals a bit and focus on "looks".

Gotcha! Good luck

Football

We played pretty bad but still won 22 - 2 (I think that was the score).

12/14/04

Today I'm back to my 3 days of HIT per week. I definately need to exercise since I abused my body in Pittsburg over the weekend. I think the only good thing I had ALL weekend was one cup of yogurt. The rest of my meals were BAD. Pizza, Hot dogs, burgers, beer, shots, fries, taco bell Oh well....back to the program.

Thanks..

It was a good workout. As far as my MP's go - I was having some shoulder pain for almost 2 months so I quit doing shoulders until recently. I'm slowly moving back into some shoulder exercises. I might switch up my HS Incline Press next time and do a different exercise. I also need to find a new exercise for my Tri's on Tuesday since I'd like to keep the reps range between 12 - 15. I already do Dips and CG on other days.

 

[Rocco32]

So what do you think you'd go for with Tri's? I really liked doing the HS Incline for HIT, I felt it was easy on the arms and really hit the chest well. So your shoulders are doing well now?

I want do a movement over my head so I might go with an incline french press or a Single dumbell extention over my head (with two arms).

My shoulder fells a lot better

The good thing is that I still like the HIT approach and I am still making gains.

I love Taco Bell

The sodium gives me an instand headache


TONS and TONS of sodium

I'd rather have that water free for other things in my body Like peein'

Bummer .... I'm more concerned with 2000 calories (and a ton of fat) in one meal than the amount of sodium.

I think Taco Bell cures my headaches (but gives me stomach aches ...haha)
