Deltpecx's Journey; It's Never Too Late. 2 more Over 50s then onto the Over 60s

[jpfaherty]

I love me some PB&J!!

[deltpecx]

Down 20lbs and still going strong! Awww yeah

Thanks!

Strong..well at this point that's debatable..LOL!
I've been feeling like crap most of the day.
I feel like crap up until about 4PM then I feel 'normal'

I ate a PB&J on dill rye yesterday and I felt so much better..

BRB: making PB&J on dill rye part of my macros.

[Rypt1]

LOL - Worst feeling ever.

One time when I was a teen I fell asleep around 5pm and my mom came in and woke me up for dinner with tacos around 6:30. I was so effin out of it and thought it was so weird that my mom was bringing me tacos for breakfast (it was dark out, winter) - until I realized it was night time not early AM.

I hate that, too. Similar thing happened to me. I woke up after a nap, winter and dark out, and everyone is sitting down to dinner. I was pissed and asked them why they let me sleep all the way until the next morning, leaving me only a little bit of time to get ready for school. They looked at me and just laughed. Once I finally woke up, I laughed (and was relieved).

[deltpecx]

Coming into this log late on. Amazing progress you’ve made. Keep it up mate.

Thanks!
Welcome aboard the train to Shredzville!

It tasted so good. Almost as good as the first time I ever had one..LOL!

Felt great today.
WO went fast.
Cardio was tough for the first 15 min.
Then the quads kicked into high gear and cardio machine mode was achieved.

So weird how that happens. You're like "this sucks, this sucks, this sucks, hey i think i could go forever" lol

[deltpecx]

So weird how that happens. You're like "this sucks, this sucks, this sucks, hey i think i could go forever" lol

Yeah it is weird how the body can switch gears like that.

As of now I'm taking today off from all training.
My body needs a break and I need to have a day with some energy so I can get stuff done around the house.

This happens every time I prep. The last four weeks or so I come home from the gym and power nap.
I finally have energy to get stuff done around 5PM.

wooooooooooo boy, show time is getting CLOSE for you my man! You may have posted it at some point in this log, but since I'm still catching up, are you doing your own prep? mid section looking sharp!

[TakedaShingen]

That's some nice DB pressing and flying, Delts.

And...I don't think I'll ever not eat PB&J. Even in prep, it was a staple.

I felt pretty strong today. No PRs though.
Spent some time teaching BB row form to my new TP.

He learns quickly too. I show him once or twice how to do an exercise and BAM! He has it down.
Proud I am!..

My left knee and right hip are being a bit touchy, nothing serious, just old man stuff.


Posing went great. All the men physiquers are coming in well at four weeks out.
We should have a really strong showing on the line up.
I got some props about how everything is popping out..i.e.dem abs..

My quads are looking better more separations. Maybe a bit bigger. I think all the biking has helped. I think they are looking the best they ever have...
My lower back looks like it has less fluff..a few more weeks will tell.
