Thanks Shirlene - yeah I'm thinking probably a combination of lots of stuff - need more fluids, maybe more carbs? Yesterday and today it hurt around 3:30 - was crabby when I got to the gym; and normally would go with her on Tues, but getting pictures done tomorrow night, so had to go and work with her "group" training - apparently just 2 of her normal 4 were there - stupid women that just bitch and complain and do pushups on their knees. I hate it when people do pushups on their knees!!!! I was done with round 4 while they were starting round 3. I tend to recover quickly and I'm just there to get shit done. Anyway. hm, I'm crabby again.
lolololololol@ knee pushups...someone should try to get them to do countertop pushups if they cant do regular pushups
crabbiness/headaches...could be low sugar, could be dehydrations, maybe like you said...a combo
me (and I suck with cutting bf these days) I probably have a small class of chocolate milk to see if my headache went away after trying some water first

I would say you might need some more carbs
I almost never get headaches, but when I do it is usually from stress. Are you maybe a teeny bit more stressed than usual?
I take two aspirin, and it usually helps. I try to breathe better too, to relax my neck and shoulder muscles which get super tight and cause tension.
Good job on the buliding of muscle, i am quite sure you will reach your goals because it sounds like you have a lot of self discipline.
I've been itching to get on here and tell you guys about my day.
Let's start with work - and I'll call it a very intense day. Got a press release published with a big publication, but also had a "talking to" from my CEO, had to work on Board Reports due at 5pm, etc... I did a lot of sweating
Fastforward... finally got to the gym about 5:45. I wanted to tan, hit a couple weights, and then I had to teach at 6:30 (Body Pump). I was just itching to get lifting, I needed it so badly to get rid of today. I was in the tanning booth (standup), and I literally had to get out before the time, I couldn't stand it anymore, I wanted to lift so so bad that I was starting to hyperventilate - literally crawling out of my skin. So I decided the quick complex I was going to try and do before class - hopped up first to chin-ups AND THEN BAM!, did a nice quick 8 unassisted; this has been very weak for me lately, only been getting to 6. Then I did assisted pull-ups with only 30lbs of help instead of 50 - and on and on... felt good. Taught my Pump class - forced myself to actually go heavier on Chest and Biceps that I ever have before (this is always a gamble when increasing weight in Pump - I need to be able to finish the whole track without dying/quitting etc.)
For being in such a crappy mood when I left work - I was flying high on endorphins on my drive home from work. Just felt GOOD.
Oh yeah - I'm up about 1 1/2 to 2lbs. It is not my diet - as far as I'm not eating too much. I haven't been cheating, I've been consistent. I can tell I look stronger, but still seeing the bloat around my belly area. I'm just about into starting week 2 - is this and when going to go away?
Tomorrow I workout with AM!

okay guys - worked with AM tonight -
First I ran two miles in about 15 minutes. I was feeling good - so I ran fast
Did sets of 15, 12, 10, then 8 - abs and cardio in between each set different each time
This is what we (I) did: (I don't know the weight of the ball - maybe 8?)
-squats/jump thingy with medicine ball (squat then jump high - landing w/soft knees? - what do you call that? some sort of plyo squat)
-squat thrusts
-V squats (lunges) holding medicine ball in one arm out front each side
-Lat rows in plan position w/15's
-side plank (on hand not elbow) w/ shoulder press - 15lbs again
-pushups
-abs round 1: reverse curl w/vertical thrusts at the top x 30
-abs round 2: full center crunch x 15/ obliques each side x 15
-abs round 3: stability ball held in between legs (straight not bent) reverse curls x 30
-abs round 4: I can't even freakin remember now
-cardio round 1: airdyne all out for .2 miles (takes to about a slow count of 40)
-cardio round 2: jump rope x 130
-cardio round 3: rowing machine for 250meters
-cardio round 4: Ran 1/4 mile on treadmill at 10mph (yes, that's right, 10mph)
I then somehow managed to put some jeans on and walk to my jeep - and then threw up outside of my jeep x 2 in the rain. Then sat in the jeep with my head on the steering wheel for about 5 minutes until I didn't feel dizzy anymore.
She wants me down to 50-60 carbs daily? Before noon. This scares the shit out of me. That's not much. Also, been holding steady about 100g of protein daily. She wants me at 150.
I am having a really really hard time recovering right now. Really shaky, really anxious. I ate a banana in the car and just ate a protein shake, and I know I need to a) eat more, and b) shower and get out of these wet clothes (it's raining cats and dogs) - but c) I can't get up
