Well today in a deperato attempt to make up for my couple of days off due to the snifflies, I tried to fit in legs and shoulders day together! hehe
I ended up having to get rid of the interval bits all together from the leg ones, I was dying without doing any cardio. I even had to get saved by those bars on the squat rack! you know the ones? I'm so short though when I do a low squat it practically touches them anyway but I went down low and then went SPLAT on the butt! hehehe
I also tried those lunge things on that half bally thing. Bosu? I think? THEY WERE SO HARD! ahhhh
by the last set (which I was going "RAAAAAAAAAAAJIN why is there MOOOORE!?!?") it was all unweighted and so I was going "phew!" but in actual fact, it was probably the most painful part of the whole day! single leg hamstring curls on the ball and non weighted single leg calf raise. At one point I was telling my calves to 'come on' cause I didnt understand why when it felt like I was pointing my toe like a ballerina I was only one trillionth of an inch off the ground! haha
Quick break and then I got into shoulders (yeah, I hadnt done them yet... I was that knackered just from the leg with without the intervals!)
Shoulders went really well though, so painful, I love the Arnie things a lot. I did the full cardio between these ones but my legs were screaming. With shoulder pump on though it looked so awesome which helped me press ever onward! haha I almost lost my lunch once there, not that I'd eaten any yet. I still cant do any weight on the stoopid military press, and I seem to get stuck on 8 reps every time. But it's a lot easier to press on when you know you cant let your heart rate slide.
Speaking of heart rates, wow that Bosu thingy really gets it up there! how does it do that! I'd love an explanation!
So anyway, after the last 60 seconds of cardio I rested on my knees for a little while then went home to eat.
I had my fish with the last of my brown rice today! it turned itself into a mini risotto thing and was delicious!
I tweaked my diet a bit, I took the Fruit out and added in the peanut butter and I also added in the sodium of everything. I'm not sure how much I'm supposed to be taking in right now but at least I know what to not eat when I have to cut it out. I also have changes brown rice to brown pasta, they are so similar in nutritional content I dont think it will make a difference to anything but my tongue tasting something a bit different. I wanna scrap the Quinoa too, I find that meal really hard to force in, but if I do it might ruin my arvo meals so I dont know. Best to let well alone maybe. At least for the next few weeks.
I've been reading article upon article about peaking, it sounds like it ranges so much. I guess I'm just going to have to do a generic peaking trial. No wonder people get addicted to this sport with so much trial and error, if I did decide to never do this again I'd always be all "I wonder what I'd turn out like if I'd..." you know what I mean? I can definately see how you'd want to keep doing it again, but next time better! hehe Not that I will feel that way, I've never been there or anything, just saying I could understand.
I became possessed by demons yesterday, I had to work late and something went *twang* NEED CAAARBBS and my eyes went red and I opened my mouth and lazer beams came out! So I had a chicken and veggies wrap rather than just on their own, I figured it was just me saying I needed more carbs but then I read that once you lose some fat your body starts upping the hunger cravings in order to save itself or something, so maybe I should have ignored it?
I tried to make a countdown ticker, but my signature keeps telling me off for having too many characters, so that's dumb! I'll have to find some other sorta countdowner.
So I've read that a lot of people have weekly carb-ups (or cheats or whatever) I'm 11 weeks out today so I think I'll have one this one, one in two weeks, one in three weeks and then none til carb-up/peak time. Unless there's a reason that cheatings actually beneficial in ways other than stopping you from turning into a psycho.
I'll keep reading!
So much to learn!
P.S Raijin, my ass hurts, you're the best.
P.P.S. I have gone from 50.9kgs to 48.9kgs in two weeks! It's all coming off the waist back and bottom! From directly behind my legs are wider than my butt! It's awesome! I love it! I'm going to go have a photoshoot and just make her take a thousand photos of my bottom. "And whatabout a pic of my bum? We could do this pose where it shows off my bum? Hey I know a good one! You could take a shot of my bum!!!"
