Carlman - Training to become the ultimate manlet

[cmoore]

You got this. Go bring the pain.

Bump in the road. Onward.

Well... BIG mistake. Had a few drinks... Now I want to have a drink really bad right now but have not had one since Thursday. I'm craving some but know it will just set me back that much more. I gained 7 pounds since last Sunday. I lost three pounds the past two days. Feeling like giving up. I'm just mentally drained right now.

Anywhey, I did manage to do some legs friday night, chest and triceps yesterday and back biceps today. Didn't push myself too hard. Kept the weights moderate and did ton of sets.

I really need to do some cardio later today. Unsure if I am motivated enough to do it. Last week really fukked me up bad!

It's hard to be 'good' with the diet when you're on the road........mind you, 7lbs in a week is a good effort hopefully mainly water!
At least you got some lifting in so you'll be back on track quickly!

Took yesterday off.
Right now I have 30:00 min done on the bike. Gonna do 20:00 more.
Bowling in a couple hours.
Shoulders/Traps tomorrow!
Legs Thursday.

Low carb diet started yesterday. Diet going well so far for two days.
Plan to be 149-150 by gym time with Chris and Tom next Saturday.

If things go as planned from today plus my gym is closed Thanksgiving day....

It's looking like a shoulder/traps day.

Just got done doing 50 min of cardio.

Just saw your journal.

Cool welcome!!! You will notice that it's not always pink little bunnies and rainbows in here. As with diet and training... the mental aspect of this is just as important. Can't hide the downs all the time. As much as I know that missing a week isn't going to kill me... Mentally it really plays tricks on me. That's where this journal helps me the most. A simple post like "You got this. Go bring the pain." from cmoore really kicks me in the ass and puts my thinking back on track. Other than that I really do live to lift weights and try to become a bigger better me!!!

Chest and Triceps tomorrow.

[fittofattofit]

Huge volume on those squats. 12 sets/120 reps = great way to make a short session pay!

As long as I get a few "heavier" sets in before my bigger rep sets.... I'm happy. I feel that it helps me keep my strength up durin my "cutting" phase.

Has Chris confirmed about Saturday?

I think he just did. See below....

This Saturday?? Im in!

Be at my house or meet at the gym at 11:00? In case you forgot my addy... I'll pm it to you in a couple days.
