(No full-on knock out & weird psychadelic dreams like w/ Nyquil... :rainbow: ) And a bottle of zinc supps & a pile of Vit C and continuinig w/ the echinecea. And I brought my laptop home in case its easier to work from home tomorrow.

I guess we'll see how this puppy plays out -- I really need to do cardio tho. :(

Have a Hot Toddy: Hot water or Hot Tea + Honey + a small amount of Gin or Vodka. Add some Splenda to sweeten. Obviously this is for night time.

For some reason, this combo seems to work/help.....it's one of those "old fashioned" remedies....

Can anyone explain to me why lemon-flavored Day-time Theraflu tastes like ass compared to lemon-flavored night-time Theraflu???

Have no idea.....maybe the sleepy time agent is sweetened due to the tsate?
 
The night stuff tastes like a nice lemony flavor, but the day one is like, too lemony but sort of fakey -- its a powder. I dunno. As long as it kicks the cold.

OK took some pix tonite. A little flat from being sick, not that you can really tell right now. I'm seeing my chest pop out more & more which is awesome because I've had problems with that over the last few yrs. My quads are popping a little more but you can't see it much in any pix, and my back is starting to pop too. Getting another bodyfat test done on Wed.

And as usual, the actual pose shots are better than the standing shots :)

Bodyfat: 17.1% (7 pt caliper, avg of 2 measures - greatest change in the subscap & tri measurement)
Weight: 158 lb

Had to delay training an hour to get the bodyfat done (scheduling issue). Like an idiot I also tried to delay my last meal prior to training a little longer so I wouldn't be starving during training. Except I waited too long & got a shooting headache which stayed with me and I still have. Sort of put a damper on my workout.

I still have a headache from last night which sux. Like Frisky mentioned, I'm starting to get ravign starving about 20-30 min earlier between meals than I was. Drink more water! I'm trying to make the meals cover my day at work and not wait too long between the last & my trip to the gym. If I do start feeling like I'm still hungry at gym time, i'll get one of those "Shredder" (non-stimulant) workout drinks -- they have about 6 carbs & nothing else but they'll get me through a workout. I also had my last "therapy" trip to the massage therapist. I think this puts my back recovery at about 90% complete. I have very little back soreness anymore, though I still have issues doing deadlifts. I was going to do hamstrings, but I still had this damn headache, I was sore in my lower back from the massage (she worked a lot on the psoas) & I was getting hungry for my last meal already. So figured a good night sleep would do me better. And I still had to grill food.

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).

Great news that things are going so well. I was at IHOP last weekend, but I think I had pancakes with my eggs.

IHOP?...hmmm...(I'm going to go back and take a look at that nutrition again.)Just kidding, of course!

Hey...BTW - tonight's a carb night. I bet your in a coma.
 
It was GLORIOUS! I was dead after quads tonite. Dragging a little from being short on sleep -- my refrigerator's freon is dying & a bunch of fish & stuff thawed out & started stinking up the freezer last nite. So I'm running around at 10 pm in a rain storm trying to find some coolers & dry ice. Then I got to clean out the smelly fish. Wonderful....

I did very well at IHOP -- I'm not a big pancake or bready-breakfast-food fan so I got the omelette, hold the cheese & sour cream. And had the 1/2 grapefruit when we got home. And LOTS of coffee.

Just had to make it thru today, hit the gym for quads & CARB UP!!!!! Very long dull day at work and I was short on sleep. Not sure how much impact the low carbing had on me -- I was sort of moody today, mostly impatient, but not pissy. I think I was just really tired.

Fantastic! I know the days on the low carb really bites - but it truly does work some magic if given a chance. :)

We'll get the Quad to do your bodyfat - see where you are at! Good times.

See you at the Arnold this weekend!

Damn! Another month! Where does it go?? Anyway, as usual, short on sleep but slept like a baby after carb up. I drank a lot of water & tea today. Just seemed like a lot more than usual.. Anyway, got to the gym a bit late which starts to stretch my time between meals, but it was OK. Good training session. I actually watched a guy spend 10 minutes re-racking & reorganizing all the heavy DBs in the weight rack. Amazing. It was really cute.

Also some new pix. These sort of suck tho.
 
More.

I can see the bodyfat dropping, the size being decent, some quads coming out, chest definitely leaning out & popping a little, general quality of my poses & the pix themselves...ugh. These were taken yesterday morning -- after 3 days of low-carbing, so a bit flat. But its for tracking purposes :)
 
LMAO -- or maybe its just an excuse. It was going on 4 days of low carb though. Its exhausting doign those silly poses waiting for the camera timer to go. I think I need to start working on conditioning by holding those poses.

Getting a new bodyfat measure at the end of teh week.
 
Seriously...I saw that posing makes, Treil, I think is was sore...



The project folks are going to focus on contracted position TUT next wekk


MMUAAHAHAHAH!!!!
 
Oh I wanted to add -- last nite I was at a different gym than usual & they've got hella killer leg eqpt. So I think I used all of it! Anyway, I"m trying to get some size in my legs & drag out the sweep, so I did the ol' wide stance / narrow stance on hack squat & leg press for heavy weights. After HIIT cardio on the precor tonite, dayum can I feel the inside & outside parts of my quads....

And BTW, for you more recent members, I'm following advice from Shadow that he gave to me in 2002.... He's not just a fly-by-nighter..!
 
The bastard judges at my 2nd show made peeps hold poses for onwards of a minute+ so, yea, its killer conditioning and if you can't do it then you start to cramp up or just want to go die.

sorry ,i dunno what "stalker" means !
i found in the dictionary : someone who prowls or sneaks about; usually with unlawful intentions
Is that what u ment ?
Then NO , im not.
I just liked you like anyone else who posted here 4 u and I thought it may be good to let you know .
 
Very cool! Your pic (I assume from before) is quite impressive. I obtained my ideal physique a few years back too, but since my last baby was born I have quite a bit of work to do. Your posts are inspiring. I'm just now starting to try and get my body back too.
