About that time I (nutrition)

[Double D]

Stewart20- I sure felt it after that workout to. IMO that workout isn't anything compared to what me and Arch put together for me. It was some type of a HIT routine, but I kept puking everyday I lifted, so I figured malnutrition may come into play so I had to go back to my old workouts. Thanks again anyways Arch.

 

[Double D]

Well I felt kinda lazy today so I put a routine together to get me through this week.

Today
Bench-3x10 at 225lbs. (last set was not to bad this time)
Pullups-3x10 (last set with a 45lbs plate) some assistance for the final 2 reps
Shoulder press-3x10 at 135lbs. (pretty easy, but having some shoulder soreness)
Butterflies-3x10 at 55lb. DB's
Pullovers-3x10 at 105lbs.
Side Raises-3x10 at 35lb. DB's
Decline crunches-4x20 (with 25lb. plate)

W.O. Time-1hour 5 minutes

Kinda long workout, but I wanted to kinda take it easy this week since there was so much going on.

Ate not the best this week either. I consumed about 2300 calories which is about 500 more than I wanted. I'll get back into it 100% next week. All the overtime this past week hurt me.

Still got a leg workout this week, wish me luck.

 

[Double D]

Well played a softball tournament yesterday and suppose to play today to. Damn this is killing my sleep. I have been getting off at 8am and staying up all day to play ball I get to bed at like 8pm and have to be back in here by 11pm. Its getting pretty rough, lucky for me today is the final day.

Diet is totally aweful for the past few to. I have been getting my protein intake, but I have been up for so long my food choices suck! I just eat whatever I can find. One of these days I will grow up and put my training first and everything else second, oh well......

 

[fufu]

Numbers looking great.

Do you work nights or something?

 

[Double D]

fufu I work swing shifts (which sucks). It gets tough sometimes coming off of midnights to get motivated to get into the gym. So sometimes my workout hours are kinda crazy.

 

[Double D]

Well Monday night will be my next workout. I need to get a leg day in since last week was so wicked terrible. So I think I will do the following:

Squat-3x10
Deadlift-3x10
Lunges-3x10
Leg Curls-3x10
Calve raises-3xhigh reps

Hopefuly I can do it in under 45 minutes which would be excellent since I have to do it before work tommorow night. I think at like 9. Yeah I know another late workout.

 

[DeadBolt]

Lookin good bud!

Whats your diet look like when its on...you said its very repetative? Just curious what your eating day in and out...

 

[Double D]

Mostly chicken, greens, a few fruits, and some peanuts here and there.

Atleast 3 liters of water a day. So yeah very repetitive!

 

[Double D]

Todays workout

Bench-3x10,8,6 at 230,240,250
Shoulders press-3x10 at 140 (not to bad)
Butterflies-3x10 with 55lb. DB's
Side raises-3x10 at 40lb DB's


Kinda tired today, but workout time was 35 minutes.

 

[fufu]

Do your shoulders ever bother you after a workout like that?

 

[King Silverback]

Lookin good and Strong Brother D, keep at it!!!

 

[Double D]

fufu Yes the definitly do. When I bench I feel like my joints are goin to bust! But I have been doing it so long it just seems like second nature. You have problems with your shoulders do ya?

Arch Thank ya brother. My journey torwards a better body is a never ending journey.

 

[fufu]

fufu Yes the definitly do. When I bench I feel like my joints are goin to bust! But I have been doing it so long it just seems like second nature. You have problems with your shoulders do ya?

Sometimes. Less now than before because I am being more cautious.

 

[Double D]

Well the last week I pretty much took it off. I think it was mostly because I simply got lazy. I had a ton of softball to play so I figured it would be best to take a week off. My nutrition was aweful. I dont think that I ate a single thing healthy either.......Oh well I suppose, I guess I will get back to it on Monday. wish me luck.

 

[fufu]

Good luck.

 

[Double D]

We did however play in a tournament on Saturday and we totally dominated every team in it. We beat every team in 5 innings, but 1. And that team we beat by 9. We were absolutly smashing the ball. It was a lower class tournament and the guys I was playing with were of a lower class, but they asked me to play so I decided I would. And I got asked several times if I was that class of a ball player. Of course I simply told them that I dont ussually play with those guys. And the response I got most of the time was oh well I didnt think so. Anyways we doubled our money so it was a good weekend.

 

[fufu]

How do you win in 5 innings?

 

[Double D]

If your team is up by 12 or more runs after 5 innings then the game gets called. In slow pitch softball if your team is up by 20 or more after 3 innings the game is also called. We almost did that to the last team we played.

 

[fufu]

lawl, nice.

 

[Double D]

I just ate something good for me for the first time in a week. I had me some chicken breast. Now we're getting serious baby!

 

[King Silverback]

Congrats on the tournament!!! Doubling money is ALWAYS a good thing, LOL!!!

MMMMmmmmmmm Chicken Breasts, Good Stuff!!!
Hope your having a Great weekend BRother D, and a safe 4th!!!

 

[Double D]

Arch I appreciate it, I hope you are yours are safe this weekend. I got some fireworks to go and see tonight.

 

[Double D]

Well fireworks sucked. Parade tonight. Wont be able to with stand the corn dogs and funnel cakes. But the best news is that i havent gained a single lb. as I have stayed just as hard for now. I have to get this diet back on track after the 4th. It shouldnt be a problem, but we will see.

 

[fufu]

Must...resist! Today I took a bite of angel food cake and I spit it out after a couple bites. It probably wouldn't have done shit though.

 

[Double D]

I think I got my body about right where I want it for now. I am trying to maintain and I havent gained a lb. or a slight percentage of bf so far. I check all of this on a day to day basis. As of right now I am not to worried about it, but come winter time and if I was still eating like that I think I would be screwed. I am so much more active in the summer months.

 

[Triple Threat]

If your team is up by 12 or more runs after 5 innings then the game gets called. In slow pitch softball if your team is up by 20 or more after 3 innings the game is also called. We almost did that to the last team we played.

I've played in leagues with mercy rules of 15 after 5 and 12 after 6. 20 after only 3 is almost cruel, the game's not even half over!

 

[King Silverback]

How goes it Brother D???

 

[Double D]

Havent been able to get on here for a while. Have been really busy.

Last workout

Incline-4x10 with 200lbs.
Shoulder Press-4x10 with 135lbs.
Butterflies-3x10 with 55lbs. DB's
Side Raises-3x10 with 35 lbs. DB's
Skull Crushers-4x10 with 105lbs. (pretty easy)

WO Time-55 minutes

 

[Double D]

Triple Threat- Yeah we have beat a few teams this year in 3 innings. We are looking to actually win a state title this year. Last year we took 3rd.

Arch- Thanks for the concern buddy. Things have been a little tough lately. I havent found to much time to get to the gym. Plus my gym is my garage and its been like 90 degrees plus everyday the past week.

 

[DeadBolt]

Lookin good man! Glad your sticking with your journal...I haven't been around in a while but glad to see your still up and running!
