probly went a little too heavy on deads. im taking a full week off everything. its probly a good time since school starts tommorow and it takes a couple days too get use to it. ill figure out my nutritian and my lifting and post it in a few days when i figure out what im going to do

Cool, looking forward to it. I start school tomorrow too so enjoy your rest.

decided to do a little easy cardio on tredmill
.25 = 8MPH
.25 = 8.5MPH
.25 = 10MPH

it feels like forever since i lifted weights, it really does

I know the feeling bro. I HATE being out of the gym And sometimes, it’s essential. It sucks.

ill figure out my diet and shit within the next couple hours and post it, i have nothing else to do

ok this is pretty much what my diet will look like on a normal day.

Pretty solid. I’m impressed. However, I would definitely get some other macro is that shake after breakfast and before lunch. Maybe add some raisins and nuts when the scale won’t budge.

Serious Question: Do you have any digestive problems? (I.E. excessive gas)?

the problem about getting in anything else in with the shake is. i drink that shake inbetween the short couple minutes i have in between classes so i dont have much time to eat.

i dont really have any digestive problems. i did more at first when i really started to up the eating. but i think as my body got more use to it i dont have any problems at all.

where my training will go from here…
