I put 110% in my workout, nutrition and recovery and I am satisfied at the end my workout!!

In the years of training I have seen more people fail to reach their goals because of the fact they aren’t willing to make life adjustments to better their life and live a healthly balanced life.  You don’t have to be the biggest, leanest body in the gym but when you look in the mirror ask yourself…are you happy with your results? If not, STEP IT UP.

So lets make it happen:

1. Do cardio in the morning to burn off any extra carbs you ate
2. Consume more meals a day (add acouple of BLITZ SHAKES bewteen meals and before bed)
3. Change your workout style confuse your body
4. Drink lots of water
5. Get 6hrs to 8hrs of sleep
6. BE HAPPY!!!
7. DONT GIVE UP IT DOESNT HAPPEN OVER NIGHT!!!

My training is going great this last week. I did a split of two days on two days off. My training style was heavy…no more than 8 reps and on the last set of each exercise I cut weight in half for a burn out. I didn’t count carbs this week, just ate tons of oatmeal, rice and lots of steamed greens. I was full and my energy was amazing but sleep was an issue. My body temp was up, burning off the extra carbs going from no more than 100 carbs a day to not counting put my body in shock. So one more week of shock. Now the great news…my weight is at 220!!!!  I feel like the old me so I’m going back to moving at 110mph.

I did some crazy loading starting Saturday and ended Monday (thank God).  I decided to go back to the old days when I depleted for a while (my normal intake of carbs is no more than 100 per day).

I went on a overload and ate any food Iwanted but still consumed my 3 shakes a day. My theory was to send my body into shock. Well I did. I also took those days off from the gym and ate pizza, a gallon of ice cream and way to many hamburgers and fries. By the end I felt fried and my body temp was thru the roof.  And to be honest I felt shtty and didn’t sleep well.

I made it back to the gym Tuesday and I was pumped. The veins were out but I was drenched in sweat.  It will be a very long time before I load again, so this week ZERO CARBS.
