Today was my last day within my 2 week promo membership to this Gold's Gym. While there I talked to a guy who said there was another gym nearby that had more of a "gym" ambiance. So after training I checked it out and was mightily impressed. And their rates were $30/month. AND I saw some muscle head people! SCORE! AND they actually had applications for an NPC card & ads for a local show in May. So, I think I may have found my 2nd home.... More to come on that!
Today I also switched up the diet -- all the carbs except green leafy are pulled and replaced with 1/2 grapefruit in meal 1 & 2x/week carb up in Meal 5. These will coincide with quad & ham days (Mon & Thurs).
Meal 1: 8:00 pm
3 egg whites + 1 whole egg
5 oz turkey patty
1/2 grapefruit.
Meal 2: 12:00 pm
2 scoops protein mix
Meal 3: 3:00 pm
5 oz chicken
1 c spinach salad
1 tbsp vinegar & oil
Meal 4: 5:30 pm
2 scoops protein mix
snack: 8:30 pm
EAS to-go protein mix -- needed something to hold me post workout & thru a bunch of errands I had to run
Meal 5: 9:30 pm - CARB UP! This got a little late because of errands & a hail storm that blew thru town.
