Poop The "I just got back from the gym" and this is what I have eaten thread. - Page 192

Okay, so there are a ton of guys in here that are working out, trying to work out, or 'thinking' about working out.

So, I figured I would start a thread. I am all about making myself accountable. The more people that I tell about working out, the more people I would let down by not going.

If you go to the gym.... then post here when you get back. If you do P90X, post here when you get done. If you ride the excercise bike.... post it here.

Anything you do to get in shape.... share with the board. I know I have gotten some great advice and feedback.

Also, post what you eat. If you post everything you eat, and you know others will be critical, you may think twice before you grab a Twinkie.

Okay, so, I went to the gym. I did five minutes on the cross climber to warm up. I stretched for about three minutes.

Then, I did three sets of squats with just 135. I did back extensions and hanging leg lifts. Three sets each. I did leg curls, calf extensions, abductor and adductor excercises as well.

On my leg day, I do very light chest exercises to work on my explosive power. I do three sets of six pushups as explosively as I can. I throw the excercise ball up like a chest pass while laying on the bench.

Then, I finished off my workout with 30 minutes on the eliptical.

As far as my diet.

Breakfast two pieces of peanut butter whole wheat toast, protein shake, and banana.

I have had another banana, two yogurts, and a handful of cashews as snacks.

I didn't have a 'lunch' per se.

Kids had sloppy joes with lean beef (as if that makes it great).... I took a baked potato, and put a serving of sloppy joe over it, with jalapenos and 2 oz's of lowfat cheddar cheese.

I have also had shotgun with water, and synthesize with water.

I won't eat again before bed.

Okay, I know putting everything down here will open me up to criticism. I know some will think that I am doing things all wrong. I appreciate any advice, but I have done a lot of reading and talking to trainers.... so, I have an idea of what I am doing.... or at least what I think I am doing.

The point of this thread, isn't to get into pissing matches about how to do things.... but rather to give ourselves a gold star for making an effort.

Try not to beat anyone down on this thread, because this is about encouragement.

Our division is really competitive this season, despite my team losing half of our players from last season.

A long time ago. No, I wouldn't change it, because then I think i risk having it become boring and not simply a hobby and interest.

Who would have thought a huge fat man would ever love fasting?

Maybe this is how you should've explained it to Red That, rather than running him off, he's a good dude, man. :/ I mean, it's not like Red That pulled out a light saber for battle against you.

Well, 24 hours down. That really wasn't a problem. Interesting that yesterday I ate breakfast and was hungry all day, and today I consume half of a protein shake and don't get hungry at all.

Hammock Parties · 05-04-2010, 09:16 PM

Time to order some more ON Whey. What flavor should I try? Last time was chocolate whatever it's called, extreme or something.

Silock · 05-04-2010, 09:25 PM

Extreme Milk Chocolate

I've tried all the chocolate variations, and none come close to ECM to me. None of the other flavors that are non-chocolate are very good. ON does have a sample pack of flavors that you might want to try before you commit to a larger tub.

Good job on your first session, though. Don't give up now.

I don't plan on it. My goal is to go from 265 to 187. I should reach my goal in November.

About to try something new. Steamed some salmon in the rice cooker while I went for a walk after work. We'll see how it turns out.

Hammock Parties · 05-04-2010, 10:08 PM

Keg, how long did you walk for?

keg in kc · 05-04-2010, 10:13 PM

43 minutes, 3 miles.

keg in kc · 05-04-2010, 10:23 PM
