Gym love

I never would have though I was a gym rat, or would like it that much. Gyms were for those big body builders, or desperate try hards. Lol, thankfully my outlook has changed, because I would hate to think of myself as a try hard.

Anyhow, I got my gym membership today, and I'm so excited!

I found a plan that sounds pretty sound (yeah my awesome rhyming skills) online, and I'll be sticking with that as much as possible for the next 3 weeks...now all I need to do is clean up my eatting, which as always isn't the greatest.

Schedule #1

• Monday: Stubborn Fat Cardio (AM), Weight Training (PM)

• Tuesday: Stubborn Fat Cardio (AM), Weight Training (PM)

• Wednesday: OFF

• Thursday: Stubborn Fat Cardio (AM), Weight Training (PM)

• Friday: Stubborn Fat Cardio (AM), Weight Training (PM)

• Saturday: OFF

• Sunday: OFF

Weeks 1-4

During weeks 1-4, you will be lifting in the 8-12 rep range.

Daily Schedule (Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri)

• Upon Waking (6 AM):

• Stubborn Fat Cardio(6:30 AM):

• Meal 1 (7 AM): 1 Cup Egg Whites

• Meal 2 (11 AM): 1.5 Scoops PGN Whey Sensible (Whey Protein)

• Mid-Afternoon Supplements (12 PM): 1-2 Trimfat

• Meal 3 (3 PM): 4 oz. Chicken

• 15 Minutes prior to Weight Training: 1-2 Scoops VasoCharge, 1-2 Scoops Xtend

• Weight Training (5 PM): Sip on 2-6 scoops Xtend during your workout

Weeks 5-8

During weeks 5-8, you will be lifting in the 6-8 rep range.

Weeks 9-12

This phase of the 12-week program is going to be very challenging and produce accelerated results.

Of course though, I'm not waking up at 6:30 for such things, sleep is sleep and it is holy. But that's the general idea.

On a similar topic, after we got back home from the gym, I whipped up a chocolate mint banana smoothie with the immersion blender. WOW!! How have I been making shakes without it before? I do not know..
