Happy Sunday, my Best Buddies!
I decided to adjust the Idiot Box up to what is showing now - and what I wish is muscle mass gain...however; it could be some fat, too. I will know next time I get the fat caliper measurement with my trainer.
I lifted a PR today - reverse flys used two 35lb weights!
Wondering about my nutrition plan - since I have added two fruits and some veggies (still no grains or dairy), it seems I am craving more carbs and/or calories. I still may need more calories to grow muscle but do not want to see any more Idiot Box gains! I understand "lean gains" but not sure I am quite there yet. But I persevere and keep tweaking the plan!
#Burn the fat, Feed the muscle - Tom Venuto
Short Range Goals: * Maintain "new" macros to be closer to goal weight on Idiot Boxes by Nov. 16 endocrinologist appointment * Complete trainer assessment Nov. 20 to learn new bodyfat percentage * Drink at least 12 - 14 cups of fresh water daily - especially on gym days * Continue HIIT mixed in with weight lifting four to five days * Keep up the training notebook to achieve progressive overload
Long Range Goals: 2016-2017 *Bodyfat at 20% or less (Current 23.75%) *Maintain Idiot Boxes around 152-155lbs staying under goal weight *Increased strength, endurance and flexibility during workouts NEW Words of the Week: “Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.” ~George Washington I am dedicated, determined and diligent!
