Shrimp Becoming a Lobster

So today is chest and abs day, with a sprinkle of HIIT ! For many people out there how ever it is only thuesday.

First day on the new diet, Im making some adaptations today since I failed to plan and there for almost failed (thanks to protein shakes i wont but I wont have a happy coach, he is prepping for the FlexPRO next weekend so hes not keeping his eye on me this week)

  1. 200ml egg whites and 38gr oats / 3caps flaxseed oil, 2caps fishoil, 1000mg c-vitamin, 2caps multivit (forgot to take vitamin D darn it!)

  2. 1 small organic apple and a handfull of Goji berrys, cacao nibs and cashews (here was suppose to be 30gr protein but i dont have pure whey)

  3. Small chiken breast and a small avacado

this is what i got down today so far. I drink loads of water all day since I dont drink any types of soda pops, coffee or juice (sometimes juice or chocolate milk on cheat meal days though yummm)

next meal is

4.oats and whey

then its hopefully training

picking up where i left off…

so yesterday didnt go as planed (strange how that happens all the time!) after a hard day at work (the other PE teacher was sick so I was teaching a lone from 8.10 to 14.30 with classes from 40 kids to 60 in the small gym I came home and fell into a friends watching coma and slept from 17 to about 21 then ate some and then back to sleep to 1am and then moved my ass to bed from the couch…

today … the other teacher was still sick, but I was well rested and ready for action… well at least by second period I was :wink:

Diet was good today

quinoa toast with cottage cheese for brekfast (I over slept so I didnt eat untill 9.30 after first class was done since I didnt have time before I had to be at work

lunch was Ýsa, a white fish and veggies

snack was goji berrys, cashwes, caoco nibs and an apple

then pre workout was whey and oats

during workout was a BCAA and glutamine drink with some green tea

after workout was soup

well not really the diet im suppose to be on, but running late this morning left me with not many choices, So it was the less of two evils :slight_smile:

Training was shoulders! wooo hoooo I decided since none of the incline benches where available after I had done my warm up I would just pick up where I left off last week.

It felt good, however my left shoulder and trap area is still bothering me but now the pain was in the anterior deltoid more… hummm… will see if i can shake it off. Did some standing shoulderpresses in front and behind, then some db front raises, and low rise heavy to light shoulder fly for pump, love the straitions in the delts during shoulder training, im pretty sure these are my favorite days, its fun when training is visual as well as heavy :stuck_out_tongue: and then some interval cardio afterwards

I have a question for the strong lean ladys on here about the Pill and cutting. Now I have always been against the pill (dont get me wrong Im all for not having kids and still having sex) because putting extra estrogen in my body whilest trying to keep my natural test levels high makes no sens to me what so ever! BUT the week and sometimes 2 weeks before my montly hell days my boobs get real sore, I know this is a problem for many women, but it has never really bothered me so much since I never really did any running. Now I am doing HIIT cardio at least every other day with sprints so this month it really did bother me and I was wondering if going on the Pill would be a good idea to get to skip it all together, but water retention, extra estrogen and how it could effect the cutting period is a big question in my mind. Also for the contest if it was a bad timing I would hate to have my periot on contest day, so the pill could help aboid that. I would love to skip this wonderfull 4-5 days a month all together as often as I can but is it worth it? Does anyone have any experiance on this?

ask you question in the Q & A, PW Style forum - you might get more replies. I’m a weird case when it comes to hormones so I can’t relate.

And no I dont count my micros at this moment, but cooked my food for tomorrow earlyer

brekfast: 80gr oats and 300ml egg whites

Lunch: 300ml egg whites with broccoli and sweet peppers
(planing on some avacado with that)

inbetween has yet to be decided :slight_smile:

So coach says:
“Eat 50% protein, 20% carbs and 30% fats.”

today so far has been (with pre workout meal):
Protein: 41%
Fat:9%
Carbs:49%
Calories: 993

OPS!!!.. ok so too many carbs (ok so I see where there need to be changes for tomorrow, so ther eaint nothing to em but to do em!)

Training today is legs :slight_smile:

Dinner is a cheat meal (so wont make up for the protein vs. carbs war there)…BUT… im giving up my cheat meal this coming weekend for it :confused: Dinner with the grandparents and today is a holiday with traditional foods where I live so it would be like thanks giving in the usa and skipping the turkey! since im not in full on contest prep, more like a line out period.

bike 20 min warm up
squats
3 x 10 x 60kg
stiffleg dl
