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

yesterday:

well yesterday was a completely wasted day and i screwed gusto out of a workout entirely. my programing for the week didnt come in to me until he had all ready left and made it home. so it was an unplanned day off. i suppose it was a good thing because my hams glutes and hips are freaking nasty sore and worn out from saturday's training session. gusto and i at least killed it sat and sun big time. just wait till he unveils the completed package. at 6 wks out he is well ahead of sched, muscle bellies are nice round full and detailed. the funny thing is you can see them through his clothing including the seperation haha. his calves are also pretty nasty also and he may have better detail in his hamms than i do.
as for me other than being sore, everything actually feels pretty good. knee is still a little sore but i am accepting it but dreading having it beating up tomorrow. this weeks programing looks extra extra nasty. got legs back and chest and shoulders all twice.


meal 1
protein cakes w/sugar fee jelly
meal 2
16oz ground turkey
2 tblspn coconut oil
meal 3
16oz ground turkey
meal 4
16oz ground turkey
meal 5
16oz turkey

i did have 50g of carbs because it was supposed to be a training day but those are all i had for the day

No worries at all brother got a really decent arm workout in that night and like I said my feelings weren't hurt anyway I was drained LOL

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

Seriously?

I've got to see the day when any human has as crazy freaky hams as guns. I'll be reporting back with first HAND experience on this one in 6 weeks. gusto must really be killing it for this report. Apparently 2 heads are better than one, great coach + great student = success.

done for the day. for a secondary day this was an absolute brutal day. so brutal that i was pouring sweat out of my hoodie and leaving puddles on the floor everywhere i stood still haha. the pump in my quads was so bad from the leg press that i had to take a few minutes before starting up the lunges. i could have went way heavier on the lunges but my forearms were cramping a bit and even wrapped i had issues holding weight. knee got a little irritated early on but once good and warm no issues at all. it is bruised all to hell though and quite tender to touch. i will be trying out a little interval cardio tomorrow as per my therapist to see if it gets the area fired up and tight again. going to be another nasty workout again tomorrow also

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

I've been slowly reading this for the past few days and it is really inspiring. Your diet alone says it all and that is taking nothing away from your workouts. Really great stuff.

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

today:

legs(not at my regular gym)
10 min treadmill warmup
roller work and stretching
lying leg curls 4 sets of 10 (warmups) 8sets of 10ss (i have no idea how heavy these were because the numbers were completely gone. i did 15 plates for 6 of the 8 sets though) very awkward machine
glute kickbacks on cable machine ss 8sets of 8 (no glute blaster machine here so i improvised) made my lower back tighten up like it was cool also
free squat machine 45x10 90x10 130x8 170x8 230x8 270x8 290x8 ds290x6 230x5ds 190x4ds 130x5 (drop set was done super super slow motion on the neg and positive really hammering them)
leg extension ss again no clue of the weights but about half the stack 3sets of 6 with a 3 sec squeeze at the top ss
sissy squats ss 3sets of 6
standing one leg leg curls 40x15 50x15 50x15
roller work and stretching

done for the day. ok, we did a recon and found the required squat machine for today's workout so i didnt have to try it with balancing a regular squat. the downside was that all the numbers were worn off of all the machines and they didnt have a butt blaster. either way, the squat machine was pretty sweet and felt 10x heavier than the weights listed on the plates. we tore legs up today big time even though i have absolutely no clue how heavy most of the movements were haha. knee fells pretty good and back is pretty tight but not painful. very very nasty pumps today

done for the day. not a bad session today. the higher rep ranges on the press were a challenge right out of the gate and i had a hard time picking jumps so i didnt lose volume. i probably could have squeezed another 10-15lbs in but i didnt have anyone besides the mrs to hand weights off today so i went conservative. it was still a pretty brutal session though.

didnt feel like a good cheat yesterday so i am having a small slice of vanilla pound cake. it only has 10g of sugar in it and has 4g of fiber so it really isnt that bad of an addition. i also dropped a carb from one meal to semi accomadate the additional cals that it brings in
