Just when I was starting to get disheartened, my husband noticed something where my Lats should have been . . . What? I FINALLY have some growth in my LATS??? YAY!!!!!!!
V- Taper here I come!!!!
I sat down with my hubby last night and boo hood because I just felt that I should be farther along. I'm lifting heavy and taking sups. What gives?!
Well. being an Ectomorph/Hard Gainer, I definitely need to take a look at my diet. I haven't been taking in enough calories to compensate for all that hard work in the gym. Also, although I am one EXTREMELY focused chick in the gym, I have been cheating myself. I stay between the 8-12 rep range and lift heavy. Well, what I THOUGHT was heavy until I trained my Back today. I decided to warm up my Back on Lat Pull Downs for 2 sets and then added weight and did 4 sets of 12. I pushed through and finally started to feel the burn I had been longing for. It was so hard to complete the 12 reps on the last 2 sets and could only get to about 9 on the last.
Ok, now THAT'S progress!
I am also going to curtail my sups since I am changing my diet a bit. Only Myofusion Whey Protein shakes and BCAA's from now on. Everything else will come from my diet.
Oh yeah, water is fast becoming a good friend. Thanks to my friend Heathers suggestion of adding Crystal Light Pure, it's bearable. I need a gallon a day so it better have SOME flavor, right?? It's actually quite yummy :-)
Well, I will be back with more pics next week or when I feel there has been some gains.
These were taken PRE-Lats!!
Out for now!!
