Willing to try anything once....wtf

[Scarface30]

i never stop hurting from workouts

don't tell me that.. I just got in my head that soreness is not a big thing, lol.

once I'm back in the gym, the soreness doesn't come as easy, unless I completely switch movements, and even then it's minimal.

 

[PreMier]

maybe because i lift 'heavy'.. like 2-4 reps on certain things? i also switch my routine every 5-7 weeks

 

[PreMier]

Where do you live j? Nice pics! Congrats on the elk also! I have only tried that 1 time.

hey dg, i live in salt lake city, but my mom is in montana (thats where i shot the elk). its near cameron, if you want to google the location

I'll have to check that out. I would love to go there and hunt. Looks like an awesome place for me. Is it high in elevation?

 

[PreMier]

its a great place, because its not too far from west yellowstone, and if it snows enough, it pushes the elk out of the park and down towards the valley. this year it didnt snow too much, so they extended the hunt. instead of 3 weeks they made it 9! because no one was killing anything. the elevation is around 7500 ft i believe

Funny... TOH was born & raised right outside Bozeman in Manhattan... he took me on a tour of the city... that lasted about 5 minutes..

And we were there when they were having thier annual "potato festival" I swear, I've never seen so many potato trucks and machinery in a parade in my entire life.. good golly

We'll see how this works... I just know I'm sore as hell..

 

[PreMier]

where you been?

 

[katt]

where you been?

not posting

I think we were just in a funk.... due to some financial things that have accumulated in the past couple months we have had to cancel our trip to Jamaica in June of 09 (we went last June).... I was literally so down about it for a while,,, but ya know.. there's always next year

Anyway, we have been at the gym here and there... but this routine is an 8 week one, and it seems to be working so far..

How's that elk meat? Did you take it somewhere or did you cut it up yourself? Still waitin' for those backstraps.. lol

 

[PreMier]

havent cooked any of the new stuff yet, still eating last years had my mom and her fiancee take it somewhere. i shot it up there when i had the audi so i couldnt bring it back lol. so most the meat is in their freezer in montana

It's a 4 day workout I found in an old Muscle & Fitness mag... you know,,, the ones that are incorporated for people on roids.. lol.... but I didn't think this one was too terribly bad and it could work for the time frame we had..

Tonight was 45 minutes on the treadmill... various speeds & inclines.. boring, but it is cardio

 

[PreMier]

why traditional over hiit?

 

[b_reed23]

lookin strong in here Katt

 

[katt]

why traditional over hiit?

I wasn't up to that last night, with the intensity of our workouts and cardio I was super tired and was all I could do to drag myself to the gym...

Probably for the fact that I'm not tracking all my calories, and I just started doing that this morning. My estimation of calories was way off.. I was only taking in 1200-1300 when I should be around 1700 or so

 

[katt]
