Tina's training log

[HARRYBEAST]

Deadlifts are the only workout I have to do later in the day due to time constraints. It usually takes me 2+ hours too.

Squats looking good, you are a strong lady.

I have to either hurry up or do mine on Saturday morning. It takes forever to do fronts and deads

I've been looking for new foods to incorporate into my eating plan. So far I picked cliff protein bar (~$1 for 20g protein and 280 cals), and fruit snacks (carb source only, 20 or 40g carbs around training). I REALLLY REALLLY (Really) want to buy the pre-made protein shakes again but at $2/ 20g protein, it feels a little ridiculous.

Any ideas? Convenience and price are high priorities. Taste is a low priority (lol). I'm looking for low fat+protein+carb source or carb source only. It's easy for me to get fat grams in because I prefer dark meat, butter, cheese. Looking for a few snacks to round out my meals.

edited to add: what I really need is beer that has protein in it.

amen to that!

The grind on that front squat was amazing!!!

[okayest]

I didn't realize you kept a log or that you were so damn strong!!!

[bmgamble]

Way to come back on that 185. I have seen much, much worse. Nice job sticking with it.
I do like me some cliff bars.

[penny0527]

Wade says grinding is an art and not everyone can do it. I never put much thought into it. I just do it because I hate when the weight gets the best of me. Way to hang in there!

[bigwade800]

you did or you didn't

beauty don't count, did and don't, that's it

you did, period, end of report

It's funny how easy it is, once I'm through the sticking point

I didn't realize you kept a log or that you were so damn strong!!!

I'm glad you found me! 8 ish years in the weight room and the last two of them on powerlifting progrmas - it's slowly adding up, faster on these programs those.

Thanks! the cliff bars have been really handy. I'm surprised at how much I like the fruit snacks too - instant energy!

Your grinds have been epic. Form usually maintained too. I usually feel like I move to a risky position to complete the movement.

Good energy. Finally. Fruit snacks are great, I don't eat a lot of carby stuff and even less sugar, so the amount of energy i get from this caught me off guard. Despite running into the issue pretty regularly, lol, I always forget how much low cals + time of month hits me. I should design my eating plan around that, not training. Squats moved pretty well, some form/technique inconsistencies. I'm excited to work on it and get them out - elbows always tend to come up, but I did a pretty good job of remembering to reset and put them down before starting a new lift. It doesn't guarantee that I'll keep my torso tight/straight but it makes it more likely. Trying to get more consistent in the walk-out and the breath in. I think I have a 240 or 245 double in me if I can get these worked out.

[penny0527]

My elbows always come out! They start down but by the end of the rep they are out again.

What shoes are you wearing to squat in?

It's annoying! I think I'm not keeping enough upper back tightness.


They're reekbok lite TRs, basically converse, but material's a little stiffer and sole is more solid. I used to wear the adipowers.

[SophieM]

So jealous of your squat form.

[HARRYBEAST]

you ever tried a carb drink? I like to use them on deadlift day when I think i need it.

I thought you were wearing different shoes than normal. Why the switch from heeled to flat?

[tina722]

Wade suggested it. The heel makes me lean forward too much. The flats have been nice for staying more upright. I had been doing a traditional high bar squat, but we switched to flats and I brought the bar lower as well, this low bar-style fits my proportions/strengths really nicely. This explains the comfort with the heavier weights too. The caveats are my heels come up and I don't always reach depth, but I think we aren't worrying too much about it.

That was one of the good days.

I have used gatorade during training, but probably drank it too slow to notice anything. What are you drinking?

[HARRYBEAST]

Carbotein by GAT is what I use currently. I believe Wade uses Carbolyn which is also a good one

That's seems so obvious, I honestly never thought to try a intra-workout/carb product. I've used pre-workouts, amino acid mixs and mass gainer. Thanks for the recommendation

The heel can definitely exaggerate that forward lean. I struggle with it too but it has improved over time. Some people use lifting shoes to deadlift but I just can't do that. I have to use a flat shoe.

[bigwade800]

Karbolyn and Mass amino tabs

They both process extremely quickly

Well, that's cool that you're feeling really good with the changes! I bet the heels coming up and depth will resolve themselves soon enough, since you've only recently switched over.

Some people use lifting shoes to deadlift but I just can't do that.

I am convinced that people who deadlift with raised heels secretly have a deep love of deficit deadlifts, but don't want to admit it.
