Eye on the prize

I don't know what it is about running that makes me feel free. It is not competitive. It's free from that. I feel things that I'd like to try and put into words. My heart races within me, fighting to beat through my chest. Beads drip down my neck. My eyes blinded by my own sweat. I feel free of pain. Free of worries. Further down, miles away, I feel some discomfort, pain echoes through me. Pain.. in my sides soon turns into numbing . The numb feeling goes away. My mind ignores it. My feet ... are they mine? I see my knee caps, one after another. My feet, a blurr. I don't know how fast I'm moving but I feel like I'm flying. My head, arms and legs moving in sync to the beat of the song in my iPod. "Turn it up" Chamillionare My arms move with full force, one after another, propelling me forward. Pulling myself forward, faster, harder. I'm growing stronger. I can see it, I've got my eyes on the prize. Miles go by and I'm still alive. The sun beams, burning the nape of my neck, my arms, my chest, my ankles. My sunglasses, shielding my eyes from the rays. Shielding bugs from my eyes. Miles pass by.. My heart races faster, it's not finished but I am for now... I breathe, focusing on my pace, talking my heart back down... I see the prize.....Telly

Does my ass look fat?

Ok, I have to post this. I bought some lacy boy undies. No this is not an attempT to audition for porn. It's just that I have an ass now and I need to see it on a screen so I can criticize it. :heh:   Only a select few of you will have access to this entry.

Competition Readiness - Beach Body for Summer 2007

I have decided that today is the day I put a plan together where I can be either competition ready or beach body ready by May of 2007.   I am at the point now where I want to try my hand at body building. My Personal Trainer and I have developed a plan for me to be in competition readiness within the next 4 -6 months (amateur) if I do this to the "T".   Here's my plan:   Weight Training My weight training will be consisted of a six day a week split, created and designed to put emphasis on each muscle group, individually and allowing me maximum recovery. I will train each muscle group once per week.   There will be alot of emphasis on my posture and form. I will concentrate specifically on the muscle range, squeezing my muscles through the entire full range. I will be using heavy weights and will not do just 3 sets but maybe 3-4 sets with lower reps..such as 8 - 10 on most exercises to maintain my muscle during my calorie restriction. Remember lower reps, higher weights bulk you and higher reps, low weights tone you.   Cardio I will do cardio 4-5 days per week doing only 30-40 minutes of cardio per session at a high intensity level. I will be training on the elliptical and my bike and take some spinning, maybe treadmill as well. I may take some classes such as yoga and pilates to vary my workouts.   Nutrition I will be on a strict nutritional plan, taking in a 35%/55%/10% ratios on foods. 35%-carbs, 55% protein, 10% fats.   I will be consuming slow absorbing carbs (value carbs) that are low on the glycemic index. Carbs like oatmeal, all wheat breads, broccoli, bananas, green beans, etc. My fast absorbing carbs will be consumed directly after weight resistance training.   Since we all know protein is the key to building and gaining lean muscle. I will consume lean protein meats such as turkey, chicken breasts, tuna and eggwhites. They will be low in sat fats and low to no trans fats.   Supplements are extremely important in this process (I read alot). I will be taking additional supplements which I know I will force down b/c i feel im taking in waaay too much now but...here goes:   Whey Protein Phosphagen L-Glutamine Multivitamin Creatine Lipo6 - fat burner   Before & After I will post a before picture (current photo) and an after picture in 4 months which will be current at that time.   Anyone wanting to participate with me on this, we can compare, research, share and take notes.

Checking in and updating journal

Welp, I just finished Massage Therapy & Entero Lavage Therapy school and I'm all spent. Now I have to play "catch up" with my work load and get back into the groove of things as I prepare for the State Boards.   I worked out religiously most of my time in school with the exception of the last 3 weeks, where truthfully I have been in the gym, maybe 3 times. Tomorrow is back to the workout grind so that I can get my pump back.

Belly Comparison

167lbs today, hot damn!

I hope I can keep this momentum up. If I can, then I won't need a fill anytime soon. I think the last 10lbs will be the ass kicker and that's when the fill will come into play. WOOOOT:scared:

165lbs

been up and down 5lbs for about 2 weeks now. *sighs* I came in lower today but of course I won't count it. My weight tends to go up 1 - 2lbs per day and then down by the morning to the same weight. No more weighing for another week for me.

110lbs? Is that too small? I don't know

I'm thinking I want to push for 110lbs but is that too small? I have no idea. I gotta figure out how fit, how much fat% I want to have etc. I'm lost. I'm about to get into some serious body building and I need to figure this out. Is it even important to be a certain weight?
