| I was really into fitness and I got a copy of Muscle and Fitness mainly for the 'fitness' section. However, after awhile I began to desire the 'muscle' part more and haven't looked back. |
Week: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4-6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10
The week in review....
As I reflect over the happenings of the past week one word that springs to
mind is
mediocre. Sure I was motivated and full of desire but my workouts seemed to
lack
the intensity which I craved.
My first two workouts were right up there, close to 10 out of 10's but after
that things
fell apart. I think I began to take things for granted. For example, my
chest workout
2 weeks ago left my knowing growth would follow and my chest was pumped for
days, however this week even though my poundage's did increase by 5 KGs on
all
presses I was still not real happy with the results, it was like I was going
through the
motions rather than going through the pain.
My diet also wash all over the place. I didn't follow an exact plan but I
ate every 2-3
hours, ensuring at each meal I got at least 30g of protein and at least 70g
of carbs and
10g of fat. My main sources of protein where eggs, tuna, meat and powders.
Another negative was that my supplements have not arrived yet. I will begin
taking
them as soon as they do.
The week ahead....
This week I have set 2 goals:
- 1. Train with monster intensity
- 2. Train with even more intensity.
I must block out everything that is happening in my gym and focus on the
task at
hand.
This is my split for this week
- Mon: Arms
- Tues: Legs/Delts/Traps
- Wed: Arms
- Thurs: Rest
- Fri: Arms
- Sat: Chest/Back
- Sun: Rest
My arm workouts will vary from low reps to medium and also high rep
sessions. The
exercises will be the same as Week 1.
The past week has been very busy for my in all aspects and as a result this
journal is
shorter than I would like it. I plan to spend more time on it this week and
also write
some good articles. So check back next week.
Until next time,
