Synny667 Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Never stopped lifting. Just haven't logged it. Making some post workout fruit leathers for the days I can't make it straight home to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 This is what I use for my high carb (with my protein powder) post workout shake: http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/p/cytosport-cytocarb-ii-1-98-lb-powder/cy-1060#.U7vNrPldWSo Has no taste (at least this one. I see they have many flavors - but I do not need artificial flavors to get it down past my tastebuds) and dissolves instantly in water. Leaves one feeling very satisfied for hours after a workout. Sometimes I will put in a tablespoon of coconut oil for the MCTs also - as this shake has no fat except for whatever is in the protein powder.

Synny667 Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 My funds are extremely limited for a bit longer. So homemade fruit leather or plain fruit is my only option at the moment. I don't complain either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaia Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Fruit leathers are good! Though being summer I go for just the plain raw fruit lately. So what are doing for lifting lately? are you at a gym? or being creative with the outdoors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted July 8, 2014 Author Share Posted July 8, 2014 At the gym. changing up every workout, 6 days a week only because legs day either my quads are sore or my hamstrings are so going to isolate them. Looking back at some logged workouts I see my numbers have really jumped. Like benching 135 lbs unassisted now Here is today's back workout: Straight arm pulldown: 1 set 30 lbs 20 reps 5 sets 50 lbs 12 repsWide grip pulldown: 4 sets 75 lbs 12 repsLow row: 1 set 45 lbs 12 reps 3 sets 55 lbs 12 repsUnderhand pulldown: 1 set 60 lbs 12 reps 2 sets 75 lbs 12 reps 1 set 90 lbs 12 repsSeated cable rows: 1 set 75 lbs 12 reps 2 sets 90 lbs 12 reps 1 set 105 lbs 12 repsNarrow grip pulldown: 4 sets 45 lbs 12 reps1 arm dumbbell row: 2 sets 40 lbs 12 reps 2 sets 45 lbs 10 reps For some reason the weight seemed heavy at first and then light so kept upping my weight and kept the reps the same so I could work on form.

Synny667 Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 Not going to stop as long as I can help it. Everything is slowly starting to get back to normal just a quiet lil church mouse on the posting front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted September 9, 2014 Author Share Posted September 9, 2014 So been busy with work but still up on training. Today I have lost my appetite as I found out a dear friend of mine committed suicide last night although no one is answering my questions. I don't know how true it is so keeping my eyes open. Even joking about it kills my appetite. I literally had lunch ready to eat found out and put it in the fridge..... So if it turns out to be true I am going to do a show in her honor since that was one of the last things we ever talked about together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
