Day 24

Not too bad of a workout this morning. Working out in the morning with no carbs for fuel is really hard when you're trying to keep the intensity up in the weight room and working three huge muscle groups (back, quads, shoulders) doesn't help. I couldn't finish my workout again. I got 5 of the 6 circuits completed. I didn't limit myself to 20 reps per set. If I could get more I did and most of them I did 20 reps rested about 15 seconds and pushed out a few more reps. Good pump in the shoulders today. I tried to add in squats today but my hamstrings weren't cooperating. They were extremely tight from the workout on Monday and I didn't want to chance pulling a muscle so I stuck with leg extensions for my quad workout. I can tell my legs are getting bigger. Dang pants are getting too tight around them. I'm leaving today for thanksgiving holiday and won't be around a gym until I come back on Monday. Monday I will start my animal cuts a long with all the other stuff I ordered.

I have been successful kicking my coffee habit by drinking green tea, now I want to try and kick the diet drink habit. I was watching a bodybuilding video the other day and the guy said something that I never thought of. When asked does he drink any diet drinks he said no, I only see fat people drinking diet drinks. I've read that diet drinks still spike your insulin like a regular coke would.

Hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving. I'm thankful that I get to spend mine with my family.

See y'all Monday.
