And so we are on Tuesday!

I'm gonna have to update for Monday and today. Today won't have a whole lot because Lisa and I both didn't feel like training, so we figured a little something was better than nothing at all!

Monday..
Diet: Dead on.
Weight: 143 (this likes to go up and down whenever it feels like it, so piss on the weight. LOL)
Cardio: 50 mins on the Elliptical in the morning at a level 8 to 10. I also took the new spin class in the evening which was 45 mins long. Very very easy compared to the classes in Houston. I could have totally taught a better class. There is NO AC in the spin room at all, so you know it was like an oven in there...but hey...we don't need ac!! As Howard use to say...."AC is a privilege and you have to earn it!!"
Workout Chest and tri's. basically I have been doing everything in 3 sets of 12, a few may be 4. Leg days will always be 4 sets of 15 to 20 reps.
Incline DB presses: 35, 42.5, 45, 47.5
low cable cross overs: 20,30,30 (I suck ass at these, as the weight shows it)
HS flat presses: 45
pec dec: 40,60, 70
We only did two tri exercises
overhead db ext: 40,55,55
vbar pressdown: 40,60,60

Tuesday:
Diet: dead on
Weight 141 (down 2! woot woot)
Cardio: elliptical for 50 mins level 8-10 cardio is always down in long pants and a long sleeve shirt
and our mini workout: back/bi's
one arm cable rows: 50, 60, 60, 70
Vbar pulldowns: 80,90,100
WG Chins: 130 then a drop set of however many reps we could do for three drops
21's: at 40 (very light for me)
straight bar cable curls: 50,60,70

Woke up this am and got my cardio all finished for the day. Gym was closed all day yesterday due to the Holiday. Took right at 50 mins to get what I needed to do done. While in the middle of it my GF texted wanting to know if I still wanted to go see "My Sister's Keeper". She literally gave me 30 mins to get home, shower, dress and eat before we had to go! Very sad movie, but yet very good, there were several points that we were both shedding tears in the movie. Mostly because her Mother had passed away from Cancer 13 years ago and she could relate to alot of the movie.

Bruce and I went to see the fireworks at Riverfront Park last night. Honestly it had been years since I have been to watch any fireworks. While living in Houston, I could see the ones being done in RiverOaks right off my apartment balcony, so I would watch them from there. :)

Today is the beginning of the 4th of July Holiday weekend, which also marks 20 weeks out from the NPC Nationals in Florida this year. Depending on where my weight falls I have 15 or so pounds to drop. My nutrition is being done by Pete Ciccone at 619muscle.net, I also drive to Houston once a week to train legs with IFBB Pro John Sherman.

I'll post a little more over the weekend along with keep track of my workouts here as well. :)
