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

bet youre loving today with all those carbs!

been doing the lemon in green tea before first meal. like to think it helps detox

feel like a brand new person for real but honestly i feel the best on the second mid level carb day. with the tanks being around half full and all that's when i feel the best and strongest.

the combo of the detox and digestion aid from the lemon, it is a great addition to the first thing in the am ritual

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

You're no cheater! I went downstairs and took a nap in one of the chairs while Rake finished up this morning. That's a cheat.

nah that's just saying you worked extra hard and need some better recovery. that or rake was taking to long to finish up haha

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

i can only imagine dude! i did something fairly new and my legs are killing. I usualy have a narrow stance so this week i went wider, more of a power lifter stance and i did a triple drop for 4 sets then a heavy regular set at the end FML. usually just do your typical 4 sets with maybe a drop set at the end.

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

doing legs on low carbs sucks. i couldnt imagine on your second day of no carbs!!!

yeah man, it takes a special kind of focus to get them banged out productively for sure. i like the punishment but man you have to dig in extra deep. i wish i wouldnt have done that 100+ rep drop set and got my squats in. i felt like i cheated even though i limped out and they are stiff as hell today

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

Sooo funny! I was going to add; How many times have you heard "Payton Manning questionable for Sunday's game, he hurt his shoulder playing catch with his son in the yard."

You will be happy with the result after cutting the Diet soda out, I'm sure it causes a tiny bit of bloating. Hey, it is great to see what it takes to get you through this grueling diet though. There are not many out there like you, I think you are one of a kind. Thank you for everything.

you know what's funny about the diet soda? the bloat even as bad as i hate being bloated makes you feel full. this is a plus when your stomach feels like it is eating your liver and pancreas. i dont even really like soda truthfully but it is those small tricks for your mind that help get through the process. at least it is for me.

you are very welcome and yeah i am def one of a kind. i enjoy pushing myself and my limits and sharing what it takes to reach the best that i can for everyone to see.

when i work with someone that is just trying to get into shape or whatever their goals are that isnt stepping onto stage i tell them hey you can look unreal and in great shape but getting on stage is a whole other level or being in shape. that's where the difference is. i cant have that small cheat or that extra sodium or it could be the difference between first and last. the biggest motivation for me to sticking to what i do was losing to people that i knew i was way better than and they stuck to the plan and i didnt. plus i like to win which is an added bene to sticking to it lol. the post season feast is also motivation also

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

Great to hear that you have only suffered some small injuries, it is always the every day stuff that gets you hurt. Hopefully the Root Beer made you feel better! You may need a heating pad tonight.
~Trixie~

the diet root beer sure does hit the spot and its to bad that i have to let it go in about 2 wks. so then the mega super suffering will kick in nicely.

funny thing about getting hurt is that i have hurt myself outside of the gym 99% of the time and it's always doing stupid stuff like messing around with the mrs or the kids or slipping in the shower bathroom or garage. the only time i have hurt myself in the gym was freak injuries warming up
