Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

So excited to hear that you are exactly where you want to be even though the 'Feeling Like Death' part is a bit disturbing. Now these meals with turkey and rice cereal just plain sounds like you are eating 'Baby Food' LOL Don't know how a huge man can survive on that.

feeling weak and miserable is the exact sensation you get when your body fat is lower than what you body wants and drying it out also intensifies that feeling. so feeling like death for the last days leading in is perfectly normal and a good indicator for us. this is the only sport in the entire world where you are at your absolute best at your weakest. as for the foods lol, 6lbs of protein in a day with 2-3-400 carbs is quite a bit of carbs is a ton of food. still starving but not about to eat my chair at this point. tomorrow is the last training and cardio session so i shouldnt be as hungry going into the weekend

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

Added sweet tatters nice I know they taste great by now

yeah just for the first two days. the remainder will be dry dogging cream of rice lol. it sits way easier on my stomach and for some reason dries you out really well

great workout today and i got a lot of good blood in my back. i knocked that session down in about 45 minutes total with a super fast pace. i also had to work an event today so i was on my feet again for about 4 hours. no water in my feet or knees today so it should have no impact tomorrow lol.

i am guessing all this excess protein i have been taking in for the past 18 wks or so is making me fat because i eat it day in and day out. what a crock of shit but to each their own

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

demanding workout there boss! on a super low carb day!

hows the energy level on days llike today?

i feel great until it is over and then i am toast for the rest of the day. i think i can mentally crush it in the gym and for cardio but my drive to get anything else done is a stretch a lot of the time. i have to work an event tomorrow for a sponsor so i am starting to load tomorrow and overload water. that should set up the next 4 training days to be killer. i hate that i timed that last leg workout on such a low day but nonetheless i still felt strong and focused. still got a nasty pump as well, so even though i do get worn out afterwards my body is firing very very well during training. thinking out load but i think it is from bumping some of my cycle up at the end and adding in the secret ingredient that i finally found again

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

10 min stepmill warmup
rumble roller work/stretching
leg extensions 45x60 60x60 75x60 warmups

these ts or tri sets were done back to back to back non stop. had my knee get a little aggervated on the last set of lunges so i called it a day. no injury but i know better than to push it so i skipped squats and hobbled out of the gym any way. even though i hate skipping squats this session was absolutely brutal and painful. sad that no legs for a bit but i def made this session count.
