Trying to go shopping AND workout!
Today I had a full load. The gym was kinda empty so I decided to do a circuit for my upper body. I did compound sets with no rest between exercises. I went through the circuit twice starting with larger muscle groups to smaller. This is what I did: 2x15-20
Incline Dumbbell Press: 20#, 25#
Pushups to Failure 10, 10 (Yes, WEAK! WEAK!)
Lat Pulldown to Front: 80#, 90#
Hyperextentions for lower back (no weight)
Military Dumbbell Press: 15#, 20#
Side Lateral Raises: 15#
Lying Tricep Extention: 35#
Rope Pulldowns: 30#, 35#
Bicep Curl Machine: 30#
Arnold Cable Curls: 30#, 40#
After this workout I felt kinda nauseated. It took almost 30 minutes to do. We had recently eaten and I think that's why I kinda felt that way. I had chicken and a potato.
I went to the Chiropractor after this. He examined my knee and head. I feel better already! I went and had my hair trimmed! I hate that! I wish my hair would keep growing, I like it long but it seems to be stuck!...LOL!! We went shopping after that to spend some of our Christmas money. I spent $75 dollars on supplements! I couldn't believe it but I'm trying to prepare for my dieting and intense training. It is a MUST!! You MUST take care of your body, the finest instrument you will ever own.....I heard that in a song! That is so true! I bought some essential amino acids and protein for helping the body to recover and heal after intense workouts.
I bought: L-Arginine (important building block of protein), L-Ornithine (involved in metabolism) L-Lysine (an essential amino acid used for the production of collagen) These all came together, they work well together and are very important for the serious trainer. I bought some L-Glutamine that I will put with my protein shakes. This is a very popular supplement out right now. It is the most highly concentrated amino acid in muscle and plays a role in the proper functioning of the GI tract. I bought some Oil of Oregano. It is an herb used to help fight off the flu and other illnesses and help keep the immune system strong. I've never tried this before. It was recommended by my masuist. I usually get sick every year between December and February. This year I was hospitalized for the stomach virus TWICE 3 months apart. Once in January and again in April. I was very dehydrated and weak. They had to pump me full of fluids and a month later, I stepped on stage. Weird how that all worked out! I'm learning to "LET GO AND LET GOD" handle it and stop worrying about things so much. It is so hard for me to do! I will start these supplements in January.
YOU CAN'T HIRE SOMEONE TO PRACTICE FOR YOU.
