I have been doing a lot of low intensity cardio for the past few days. Today I did a great back workout followed by some cardio and ab work. I was a little bad today because I ran 4+miles after my weight training session. I will have to resist the urge to run any more, especially if I want to keep any muscle mass. The YMCA has some new Precor treadmills and I just had to give it a try out--love it!!! I will do some more cardio later on today, but it will be a low intensity cardio workout (e.g. slow incline treadmill walk). Here is the workout I did this morning:
*5-minute treadmill warm-up walk
*deadlifts--5 sets
*narrow grip unassisted pull-ups--5 sets
*wide grip lat pulldowns-4 sets
*goodmornings--5 sets
*T-bar rows--5 sets
*one-arm dumbbell rows--5 sets each arm
*low cable rows--5 sets
----intermission break--had protein shake and amino acids
*ran 4+ miles on treadmill and cooled down by walking up a 15% incline at a slow pace
*Swiss ball ab crunches-3 sets,40 reps
*standing ball twists--3 sets,40 reps
I took Betagen before my workout, after my session at the gym and I will take another serving of Betagen before going to bed. Other supplements that I already have or will take later is Amino acids, whey isolate, CLA, vegetarian EFA's (e.g. flax seed oil), and a multivitamin/mineral. Remember, EAS Betagen supplies me with a total of 6g creatine, 1500mg vitamin C, 6g L-glutamine, 3g HMB, and 1500mg Taurine.
My current measurements are:
135-weight
35-chest
25-waist
35-hips
I have been naughty lately and eating some cheat meals like Pop Tarts and cereal. I will have to get stronger mentally and resist the urge to eat sweet treats that are overly processed. I'm eating every three hours, which is about 5-6 times per day. I'm always thirsty, so, I will have to increase my water intake.
