Fitness Progress Week 1

Fitness Progress Week 1

If you've already subscribed, then thank you! if now then you should do it... Click Here. Thanks for coming back. It means a lot!

It’s Monday already? That means it’s time to start hitting my goals, I have been putting it off a little bit, waiting to get rid of all the chocolate and other not so clean foods in my house from the Holidays. But now it’s out the door and time for me to get serious.

I am going to start my progress pictures today as well, if it warms up enough this morning I will do one and put it up this evening! But I need motivational help too and these pictures help me out so much. It is best to take them about every 2 weeks, that way it’s time enough to get results but not too far off where motivation falls.

Because I am launching my new Charleston Boot Camp, working on The Art Of Weight Lifting and planning a wedding I have decided NOT to do any fitness competitions between now and the wedding (Sept 2010) to help keep me sane. I think I would be the moodiest and most stressed out person if I tried to do it all. So competitions will have to wait for either later in 2010 or even for 2011.

My Stats:

• 112 lbs.
• 20% Body Fat

My Workout:

I just finished a great workout program, I really saw some great results from it and it makes me more excited to change it up so I can stay on this path. My arms have finally started to shape up! I am a classic hardgainer, it’s hard for me to add any  definition and muscle no matter how I eat, so my programs have to be intense and heavy! Here’s the one I just finished:

1. BB Deadlifts 120 lbs
2. Bench Press 80 lbs

1. BB Upright rows 50 lbs
2. Dips

1. Cable Chops 20 lbs
2. Chin-ups

This really was a great workout, but to make sure I don’t plateau it’s time for a change!

Getting Nutrition In Order

Just a quick update… I changed up my oatmeal for muesli cereal. It’s the first time I have had this stuff, and I gotta say that it doesn’t taste much different from oatmeal except that it has sunflower seeds and some other grains in it. I think next week it will be back to the oatmeal, same great taste for a fraction of the price.

I am cutting back to just one cup of coffee per day, not that coffee is bad for you but I used sugar-free creamer which isn’t the best option. I hate back coffee though, so its the only way to get my coffee fix in the am. I am used to drinking about 2 cups not, so taking out one won’t be hard. Instead when I need something warm at night, I bought an herbal tea… Ginger and Lemon. It’s great! I am loving it right now, even though I have only had one! HAHA.

So that’s a wrap on my personal journey…
