Good leg day today, even after running the morning! I think rowing machine makes for a good warmup for squats, as it involves so much leg movement.

Good workout today. 5lbs shy of 600 on the shrugs! I think it’s time for a deload, I’ve been lifting heavy for over 2 months, and my body could use the break.

Good leg day. The squat and leg press numbers are lower than before the deload, but its because I’m really concentrating on getting down to a little below parallel. It is so easy to start going not quite as deep as you add weight! I subbed in the skull crushers for the cable extensions, and I think I’ll stick with them.

6/14/2012 – Run During Lunch
Ran 5.15 miles in 43:20. 8:25 miles! We were flying today, best time yet on this loop. Felt great today, first mile was 9:10, and then the rest were consistent 8:10-8:30. We need to shave another 2 minutes and 13 seconds off to reach my 8 minute mile goal. I hope to get there sometime this fall.

Good first week back from the deload. No new ground this workout, but I wasn’t planning on any, just getting back into the heavy weights.

Thanks!
Yep I do all my morning workouts fasted. I drink a Gatorade G2 during the workout, but nothing other than that. The couple of mornings I've tried to eat something before hand, I've almost thrown up. I can't workout for at least 2 hours after eating.
I think the fasted workouts in the morning were part of my weight loss success. Also, by doing the first thing in the morning, I make sure that they get done before the rest of my life can interrupt.

Good workout today. Don’t know how I was faster on the way home, must be more uphill on the way to gym. Cranking up the big hills really make those quads burn!

Decent workout today. I just ran out of gas on the bench press. I think I didn’t get enough sleep this weekend. Need to try to get to bed earlier tonight.

Good workout today. Made some gains here and there, and pulled 605 on the shrugs, which is a personal best for me!
