RaginCajun's Daily Log

[Bio-Active]

I eat 1/2 avocado with 2 eggs for breakfast. I have some raw almonds for a snack. Very little fat in evening. I eat 3 meals and a protein shake before I go to bed.

dont you get hungry at night? I would move that avocado to your night meal and add just a serving of fruit with breakfast. That would be a small adjustment you could make when you start to stall. The fats from the avocado will help you stay more full at night

[GirlyGymRat]

I believe I am carb sensitive and/or insulin resistance. I also need to go get my damn hormones checked! Last doctor told me I was fine and that at 33, I did not need to check my hormones because I wasn't have any erection issues. Still looking around a good doctor. Need to look into those Lab places and just pay for it. Work always gets in the way!

I think there is recommended labs in HRT forum. Krlkel knows what to have tested.

I am on appetite suppressants that 1/3 avocado fills me up for hours. Sometimes I don't eat lunch until 230.

I know. I can't cut at 1300. Hate that.

man life we be good if I could get away with eating that few calories. Have you tried bumping up your cardio so you can consume more calories? That's another way to speed things up. Another 10 minutes on the treadmill each day will do a lot at the end of the week. I like to do my treadmill work right after lifting weights to because my heart rate is already in the dat burning zone so I don't have to waste 20 minutes getting there

Same here

I look forward to starvation(I mean cutting)

Eating till your sides hurt gets old, quick


Do what works for your goals - not much else to it

Went to gym this morning and did some fasted rowing, stretching, and foam rolling. Legs are tight from working them yesterday.

I wish I could loose and eat more. I do a lot of cardio but can add more to the lifting days. Thx!

On aside. I was really hungry this morning. Was away for the weekend and did not follow my diet. Didn't go too crazy other then the 2 glasses of wine, pink moscato and desserts.....sounds bad when I read it. LOL. I am down a pound in the last 36 hours so life is good, again.

Clown. LoL

[jdpeters]

Same, my body likes to store fat. Trying to do more cardio too, but trying to keep and even gain a little muscle. Feels like a constant science project.

You guys have been working for a long time. Congrats on keeping it up. I guess it's a lifestyle! Been reading your logs for some time. Keeps me motivated!

Keep it up!

[RaginCajun]

30 minutes on the bike trainer

2nd two a day

I may need to get some new bike shoes, I seem to lose some circulation in my toes/feet. I contribute it to the knots, tight legs, and tight shoes.

[RaginCajun]

Did a lunch WO:

3 rounds of this

10 box jumps
10 over the head lifts with a 25lb plate
10 push-ups
20 Russian twists (10 each side) with a 25lb plate
10 curls on each arm

Was dripping wet and out breathe. Only took a minute break between each round

[RaginCajun]

Shot my bow yesterday and walked probably 5-6 miles in heavy boots while playing in the great outdoors!

Today, did a quick kettlebell WO and foam rolled. Hitting the road for work, heading basically to Mexico! I purchased a nice jump rope and brought it with me for the trip.

Gosh you make me feel like a loser. I am on business trip this week and I didn't buy a jump rope.

I'm a bad boy

I figured this out about 4 years ago. Lol

[RaginCajun]

Hehe

[RaginCajun]

Did about 5-7 minutes this morning of jump roping, just enough to get the feel. I need to practice.

Just got finished a 3.7 mile jog/walk, took an hour. I tried not to push it with these jacked up legs of mine. I don't feel too bad at the moment. My legs were a little sore from yesterday's workout so I was timid to really push it the first time back on the pavement.

[RaginCajun]

Swam for 20 minutes straight with fins on.

Felt great to get back in the pool!

[RaginCajun]

Foam rolled, calves, and 20 minutes on bike, all done fasted.

[bethdoth]

Ragin,
This is a 4 year long thread...you should be huge and ripped by now!!! I didn't read all 73 pages but, have checked this periodically. Where are the before and after pics?

[RaginCajun]

Haha!

Still a work in progress!

It's a good read, plenty of ups, downs, and laughs!

[RaginCajun]

hit some golf balls yesterday evening, was whooped towards the end. i need to really practice if i want to be good at that again, i was all over the place like splattered cat shit! only clubs i could hit was my 9 iron on down to the wedges. i found my groove for a few swings but overall was not up to par for my standards.

on another note, waiting for some new bike shoes and pedals to come in. i think my shoes are just too damn small so i ordered some new ones, and of course, had to order new pedals because the new shoe clips did not fit into the pedals i have! planning on riding saturday morning if they get here in time.

[RaginCajun]

Meh, did chest , shoulders, and tris. Really didn't feel like I had any energy throughout my workout, just feel/felt dull. Maybe I need more rest?

maybe you didn't enough carbs?

[RaginCajun]

maybe you didn't enough carbs?

possibly, net carbs has been pretty low, maybe having 30-50 a day. i did have some carbs on wednesday night, had 3 beers and few chips after hitting golf balls.

[bethdoth]

I hope they were lite beers and diet fat free chips! LOL Man that is not going to help you trim BF! I hate it but to be lean for life, it's a lifestyle that typically is not a whole lot of fun. But, I guess moderation is the key. But what I find is that most of us have some form of addiction, whether it's drinking, smoking, over eating, sexual, or just working out. I am trying to convert my drinking addiction and socializing to one of 2.5-3 hours a day in the gym and getting healthy. I can socialize at the gym after my workout, they have a cafe style area and make protein shakes, coffee, etc... and a lot of people do hang out after they workout.

haha, def not light beer!

i don't drink like i did only a few years ago, maybe once/twice a week if that.

i have been adding a little more cardio in each week and with the weather getting nice, i will only increase! just hoping my knots in my legs do not get any worse!
