Well, it's been a little while since my last post, but I am progressing quite well. My Lats have grown, along with a subtle teardrop in my quads!! Totally stoked!! Oh yeah, can't forget my shoulders! My pride and joy right now :-)
I will post some pics soon but am kinda shy about it now. I was so fixated on taking pictures of myself and thinking I was farther ahead than I really was. I would have an amazing workout, muscles pumped, veins popping and wanted to capture that moment. I would look at the photos and deflate immediately. I never gave up though. I have to remind myself that I am 45 and should be proud that I finally care enough about my body to take care of it and push it to the limit I know I am capable of. IT IS NEVER TOO LATE!!
I am still doing the same split. Legs, Shoulders and Back, twice a week. I just change up the exercises, amount of weight, reps, etc. Always keeping my body guessing. Have to do this as I am trying to build before leanout. Wouldn't recommend this for everyone but it has definitely worked for me. I concentrate on correct form and push, sometimes to failure. I am so thankful for BCAAs and Glutamine! Seriously? What would I do for recovery without them? Well, I am sure there are some food choices but I am going the supplement route and my body thanks me!! Granted I do eat clean every day. 4 clean meals plus a protein shake with creatine and fruit, pre and post and then casein at bedtime. Thought I should clarify. Ummmm, there is the occasional cheat meal, of course. Once again, my body thanks me :-)
I have all ready started to chart my diet plan for the 12 weeks. GOODBYE RED WINE ;-(
Hello, tons of oatmeal, egg whites and green beans.
When I get closer, I will start posting more. Heck, maybe I'll go public with this blog!! Teeheehee :-)
Out for now :-)
