not bad session. had to improvise bc of shoulder but i still made it work. today I had been scheduled for shoulders, but that aint happening. I think i will squat light bc of my hip flexor. I just cannot shorten rom for squats. Its A to G or nothing at all. And, I will do some light rack pulls...maybe. I'm feeling 315 good this morning and probably some bb shrugs. I haven't done those in a while.
and an update on my cycle: still running same amounts. I think this is going into week 3 (i really need to get a calendar). Sides...breakouts are not as bad. I got my period out of the blue. hair- still got it. body hair- had to wax my stache, but to be honest I have to do that even when i'm not on cycle. no extra body bits growing anywhere. strength is remaining static- or maybe I am not pushing myself bc of these injuries? I must be putting on size though bc are commenting. voice- still cracked. I don't think that's going to go away.
I'm going to start dieting a bit today. I have been eating clean, but not really paying any attention to macros so that is going to change. My goal is growth with no cardio- or as little cardio as possible.

my shoulder hurt like a mutha during squats. its funny but i don't often think about all the mechanics that go into a squat. the bar don't hold itself up there- lol. today i am off. making meals for the week and getting ready to go on some serious interviews this week. not sure what my workouts will look like since i can't really do much in the way of chest or shoulders. maybe rehab shit.

I forgot I just worked my back, so I tried to stick to upper back. I cant do a whole lot with this shoulder, but surprisingly this bugger is almost healed up! I am trying not to over do it just so I give it more time to recover. tonight should be bench, but I think I will do legs again. I am going to try to do chest at the end of the week.
Diet is tight right now. Following a good meal plan. Just got off the scale- 134.
Got that big job I interviewed for yesterday Start next Tuesday. Its gonna screw my meals/diet up a little bit at first. Those first couple days always do, but at least now I will be able to afford to eat- lol.
Tweetif your meals get off sched hm then either eat them closer together or a little further apart. just make sure that you dont miss them entirely

TweetI won't miss any and I sure won't miss the meal with the coconut oil. The stuff is disgusting like lard, but I'm so hooked I could stick my whole hand in there and scoop it out lol
Tweetevery single person i have ever worked with says the same thing about it. everyone hates it but me. i can scoop it out and eat it straight up or put it in a small glass toss it in the microwave for a few seconds and drink it. doesnt matter it doesnt bother me at all.
we do want you to hit all your meals however you can and it is much more important to get them in however you have to than to miss.

Exhausted when i was done. holy hell. I'm having a love-hate with legs right now. the work is so tough, but I do believe i am seeing results. one guy says definitely, but he's trying to score a date so he's gonna say whatever. I think i am seeing definition so thats what counts and its enough to keep me going back for more.
My diet has been spot on. I'm so hungry at times though. I haven't dieted dieted in so long that I forget what hunger and looking forward to the next meal is like. lol. I even know exactly what I want for cheats this week too... a 12" spicy bmt sub with the works and an ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery. oh yeah. oh man...I'm drooling just thinking about those. I haven't had my first meal yet. I gotta go eat.
today I am doing light chest. My shoulder is still hurting, but i don't know what else to do. I'm gonna try to use light weight and ease into it.
Tweetcold stone, oh man oh man oh man. that's talking my language right there. i have the seasonal ben and jerry's cotton candy pints in my freezer right now for post show. i got 6 of them and i am building my collection up for my week of pig outs

What a horrible workout. I only brought 1 sneaker to the gym so I had to workout in my socks...sigh...my shoulder hurt so it was hard finding anything to do that wouldn't aggrevate it. I'm not sure what I can do today. I'm a miserable fawk right now. I'm hungry, breakouts from the cycle are bothering me, I'm not seeing strength gains in the gym, I'm injured so it's even harder to make gains right now...and I really shouldn't go to the gym today bc I really need to rest this shoulder. ahhhh...fml.
Tweetrest hm and do what i told you to do. also pick up a set of these and do those spider crawls to strengthen up you shoulders:

TweetSpider curls hurt my shoulder right now. I'm not sure if they are an exercise I will ever be able to do on a regular basis. I can't do pushups regularly bc they start to make my right front delt hurt all the time- these feel very much the same as the pushups with regard to where I feel the pressure. I will check out the bands- thanks.
