Poop The "I just got back from the gym" and this is what I have eaten thread. - Page 355

SenselessChiefsFan · 11-28-2009, 07:40 PM

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.

I let it slip and now I haven't worked out in like 2 weeks. Stupid ****ing motivation. Oh well....time to get back up there.

The only thing that slowed me down even a little was that I got hit in the leg by the knee of a 300lb + guy at volleyball at full force and it's left somethign in there that isn't quite right, the bruise is gone, but every now and then, the pain can be excruciating. I just feel good that I finally got motivated. Must be that I'm moving to texas where tan, blonde and thin is really in, and I'm white, redheaded, and chubby, two of which I can't change, so I'll work on the one I can.

YES!!!! I love it. You guys both have no idea how much. Tell him to keep it up. It's hard, but it'll get better. You have to push through those mental barriers and refuse to accept failure. That's the ONLY way this works.

Today is your day. Remember, I'm creeping up on you. I'm at like 270 now.

For me, I've ran 12 miles in 24 hours. I'll probably lift and run in the morning then maybe try and go tomorrow night, but we'll see. I think I'm taking Thursday off though, this is my 7th day in a row and yesterday I went twice.

Add in my knee.

I don't know what the **** happened but I squatted down to pick something up.....and I got a sharp pain in my knee. Now anytime I bend it....it feels really tight....like there is a shit ton of pressure in my knee cap....and the bitch hurts too.

Jesus.....270??!?! I better get my ass in gear. I might not be able to run for the time being....but I'm definitely getting some walking and weight training in now.

Going to rest it a week and then go get a cortisone shot if not better.

The wife finally broke down and fasted today after seeing the success I've had. She didn't do a "real" fast as she had an Emergen-C in her water during her workout, light soy milk in her coffee, and she completely forgot she wasn't supposed to be eating and munched like 4 pecans while putting pecans in the kids' oatmeal.

It was a start, though.

There's no going back now.

Silock · 06-15-2010, 07:07 PM

No gym for me today, but here's my dinner:

8 oz grilled pork tenderloin
6 eggs with 1/4 of espinaca

So ****ing money.
