I prefer evening workouts myself. Last night was a really good one. I've been at a plateau for a while and am starting to push through it. I even pushed 2 new personal best's last night. That made me happy.
Here's hoping I continue and my deadlift goes up tonight.
I ate two salad and cheese wholegrain sandwiches, two whole boiled eggs, a cup of yoghurt, a banana and an apple for lunch... and I was still hungry. So I walked 1km up the road to Woollies to get some tuna but by the time I got back to school I wasn't hungry anymore
But at least I'm slowly increasing how much I eat - I used to just have a couple of sandwiches, I have to eat more to bulk up as I now wish to, now that most of my newbie gains have passed.
I didn't lift this morning. I am too lazy to get up early, I go after school or work, start some time between 1500 and 1600, go for about 45 minutes. At that time the gym gets mostly tradies and students, which is a crowd I like. The professionals stroll in to use the treadmills from 1700 onwards, but I'm off by then
Chussen, (I like your name by the way), 45 minutes for chest and bis is way to long a time. Half that would've been more appropriate even if you were performing 20 rep a set.
I had a good workout this morning, working my chest and shoulders and core with 15 mins of moderately paced rowing to get me warmed up...
I do enjoy working out in the morning because I fell that it sets me up for the rest of the day, that is makes me feel alive and energetic afterward, no matter how sleepy and tired I was to begin with. Im really not a morning person usually.
Fadi, I did a sort of fast run on the tready finishing with a sprint to try and get a sweat up. It was more of an afterthought as I had 10 mins up my sleeve before I had to walk to work.
My aim: I've been hitting the gym for a year and a half and have developed a good base. I started out with a plan that was a mixture of 3 days weights and 2 days running, but after a while I was more interested in coming to the gym 5 days a week (i.e. the cardio fell away). My diet has been a let down, which I'm trying to address. Currently have too much fat round my stomach, so I'm adding some running and bike work (to go along with eating healthier) which should hopefully have me looking much better come summer.
