Default Business as Usual: Wk3 do-over

Another superb day!! Gawd, I'm just loving the weather.......sunny skies and a high of 23C......awesome!! Got alot of yardio done this aft. as well........who knew that digging and thrashing in a garden could raise one's heartrate like that?!! It's because I've got this one bed that has been let go a bit and certain tenacious plants have now taken over.......it requires me using a potatoe fork to get down beneath the roots and pull.....it's much like cutting and lifting sod as the root systems of theses plants are so enmeshed.....it's just crazy, but it's looking sooooooo much nicer now too! I took some pics of my flower beds this morning....I'll get them posted tomorrow........

Now on with today's workout.....y'know, the one that isn't yard related, lol!!

I am basically repeating what was to be last week's workout since I got in only one of my workouts last week......I'm getting alot of upper body work just doing all this landscaping so, I'm not worried about it at all. Again I will be doubling up on some workouts in case we decide to hit the highway Friday.....just seems to work well for me.

Wk3 - Day 1&2 combined: 3x10

1A) Leg Press: 3x10@161,161,144
1B) Hammy Curls (standing cable): 3x10@21e

2) Incline DB Press: 3x10@25

3A) Inner Thigh: 3x10@16, 13.5,13.5
3B) Outer Thigh: 3x10@16,13.5,13.5
3C) Sumo Squat: 3x10@53.5

Abs: Pilates 100's
Hand to Foot Ball Pass: 3x10 (I love the burn these give!)
~should be noted that this workout was done after all of my yardwork this morning......it was about 90mins-2hrs of heavy yardwork

today's eats:
m1) kashi n' milk
m2) ff yogurt
m3) 1c mixed greens, 3/4can salmon(ran out of tuna), raspberry vinegrette: I omitted the chesse due to extra fats in salmon
m4) Pwo shake and 11 almonds
m5) emu, brown rice and broccoli
m6) protein n' water + glutamine b4 bed

today's cardio:
30mins treadmill: program - max incline 8%, max speed 3.5mph...things change-up every 3mins
~ I didn't do a full 60mins because I really worked my ass of in the gardens today and really felt it would've been overkill.....the goal is to not burn myself out and be able to finish the week's workouts, lol!!

so that's my today in a nutshell......things seem to coming along though.....I'm seeing some nice shape in my delts and arms. I've still got a stubborn layer of fat over my abs but it's getting thinner, that layer, woot!! should prive to be an interesting month as far as results go!!
