mouthful squirt honey
2 red stix, 1 teaspoon creatine [see below] stretches
-- red stix [now don't be mad] are something i picked up before going to the gym, they are little vials, about 8 inches long and a diameter of about 1 inch. They are whey isolate mixed up in a red liquid [no carbs, no sugar, no fat] that tastes like Tylenol. I cracked one open, poured in my 1 teaspoon of creatine, gave it a good shaking and drank that and then cracked open another and drank that too for a total of 50 g whey isolate. On last thursday i ordered more syntha6 online from orbit [thanks zack for your sig, i saved some money with that code] but it's not supposed to come till this thursday, and i used my 'emergency' whey on sunday, or whenever i last worked out, and then i was wiped out so i picked up 4 red stix, each was like $3, so it was cheap, really cheap.
i can take some snaps of the red stix if you guys want, just to see what they look like.
today is off, but tomorrow i'll do abs, tris and cardio. day after will be light back and i'll do hams and quads.
when i was doing calves, right after the burn started, i moved over to the seated raises but it was being used [some motherfucker was doing 2 of the 100 plates and 2 extra 45lb plates on each side, and the guy was small, my calves were bigger than his, weird i thought] so the burned stopped and i wasn't able to get it again, so that made me kinda sad, that and i wasn't able to go till failure, but i wasn't planning on doing it, so i guess it wasn't that big of a deal. I really dig failure, complete failure, but i can't do it every time, i just forget that sometimes.
when i saw my psychiatrist, he suggested that he should talk to his brother who once competed and "still looks the part." he said maybe his bro could hook me up with some "serious and hardcore" trainers and/or gyms, so i'm awaiting a phone call from him. we live about 40-50 miles west of milwaukee so i'd be doing some driving to get in the "hardcore" gyms but it'd be worth it if they were really hardcore and i'd learn some things. i don't know if you guys know it or not, but if there are 10 ways to get somewhere, and i want to get to that place, i will research each 10 and see what works and what doesn't, i'm really OC when i want to get something done, like it is in this situation of BBing, even though i know it takes time i want to have all the skills mentally so all that is left is time, i just dont want to waste even one workout session! we'll see how this pans out w/ his bro or him calling me.
