Week 20 Day 2

So the alarm goes off way too soon and I struggle to get out of bed.  Not the start to the day I want but it is the one I get.  I look outside and the ground is wet so I decide to go to the gym to workout.  I knew I needed to run so I got on the treadmill and jogged 3 miles in 35 minutes.  Not bad.  I then did 20 more minutes on the elliptical stepper machine.   I broke a good sweat and this got my day going right.

Off to work and I was back home before I knew it.  Some days just fly by.  I rested a bit then went to the gym to do some lifting.

Assisted pull ups
+100-8
+70-4.5

+100-5
+115-8

Bench press (my arms and chest was done before I even tried to do any)
135-10,10,10

Hammer strength shoulder press with a 45lb plate on each side
10,10,10,10

EZ-Bar curls with 50lbs
10,10,10,10

Dumbbell dead lifts
50lbs each-10,10
60lbs each-10,10,10

The dumbbell dead lifts are my new favorite exercise. I was panting like a dog after doing them. My heart was racing and I was sweating. This was a kick ass workout.

My nutrition for the day was pretty darn good. I had nice breakfast of an apple chopped up with a Yoplait light yogurt on top and 2 chicken and apple sausages. Lunch was 2 cans of tuna, light mayo, some green olives and a large tomato chopped up and mixed in.

This was a great tasting lunch FULL of protien. Dinner was my favorite though, I did a veggie stirfry and then cooked up some lean pork loin chops and mixed it all together with some wicked spices.

My total calories for the day were 2,329 calories.  I had  2 great workouts today and burned a bunch of calories so I am feeling good about today.  I am looking forward to conquering tomorrow!
