Friday's Diet

Ah... Friday is my sleep-in day, meaning I am not awake as long during the day, meaning my meals can be placed closer together and can be slightly higher in calories - yay!

0715: 1/3c oats, 25g MHP Probolic-SR (185)

0945: 1/2c cottage cheese, 1 tsp flax oil, 4 oz CC yogurt, 1/8c oats (198)

1200: 2 oz chicken breast, 1.5c green beans (140)

1400 Preworkout: 1 packet cream of wheat, 4 egg whites (150)

1530 - Train LEGS!

1700 Postworkout: 25g MHP Probolic, 1 rice cake, 1 tsp honey (154)

1930: 1 whole egg, 3 egg whites, 1 rice cake (161)

2100: 2/3c cottage cheese, 1 tsp flax oil, 15g MHP Probolic-SR (207)

TOTALS: 31g fat, 92(18)g carbs, 135g protein

Week 1, Day 3 - Delts & Tris

Didn't get to train calves today since my workout ran longer than planned and I had a client immediately after. Will do calves Friday instead.

AM: Routine practice - 1 hour - Conditioning/Endurance

PM: Shoulders & Triceps - Today's weight workout really emphasized to me the difference between sheer volume training and volume/intensity training. By pairing 2-3 muscle groups together, I have to train quicker and more efficently, keeping my rest under 1 minute, resulting in a higher intensity workout, but also compromising the amount of weight I can lift. My routine practices also hinder my strength a bit due to the additional work it gives my upper body.

Week 1, Day 1 - Back/Bis/Calves

This week I started a new training phase. I just finished an 8-week volume phase and took a backoff week last week to rest up a bit before charging into the final months of my contest prep. This week's schedule was screwy due to flying back from Seattle and not being able to train Monday, but next week I'll be back to normal.

The new split is 4 days of lifting (last cycle was 5) with no chest work except for routine strength work, and minimized arm work as well. I will do 2 conditioning routine practices and 2 strength routine practices each week, and run once on the weekend. Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday are off from weights entirely.

Tuesday's Diet - Back on Track

After my weekend in Seattle, my body was all out of sorts and the time change during travel prevented me from sticking to any sort of eating routine.
