sounds intense, best of luck with all that cardio. Better you than me...

[ElDude]

Damn, there is a lot of cardio on there. I got ice packs and tiger balm ready for my shins/legs/all muscles!

So I pretty much just stuffed my face yesterday full of burritos and mexican food, totally worth it! Can't wait to kick this off tomorrow with a bright and early run.

Thanks for the well wishes and motivation people! I will try and update this a few times per week while going through this comp. I am definitely excited about this because I finally have some people to compete with! That is extra motivation right there to eat clean and train hard!!

I'm out of breath reading all your cardio. Wow.

Haha, there is a ton of cardio in here, but this is more of my "master plan" right here. As of day 2 I am following it and I am hoping I can keep up with it. Weekends are going to be brutal for the next 12 weeks, especially keepin my diet in check on those weekends.

Then had to repeat the list minus the running all within 30min.

I almost made it, didn't do the last round of Kettlebells. Now I'm eating pound of ground chicken and going to sleep.

[ElDude]

Well, I did not wake up to go run this morning, slept in a bit, which was awesome.

Wasnt too hungry this morning so had 1/2 an english muffin with some natty chunky PB and sugar free blackberry jam.

For lunch I am having a 1/2lb of ground turkey mixed in with kidney beans, cucumber, onion and spinach with some brown rice.

[Back In Black]

Any logging going on here?

[MickeyKnox]

Mantener el trabajo duro de mi amigo!

[ElDude]

There is some logging going on here! I know it has been some time, but that is my problem when i try to keep up with it... Excuses, i know.

So I have been sticking to the diet, but recently I have had the worst god damn shin/calf pain ever in my life. When I try to run I make it about 1/4 of a mile and my calves just give out.

I have been sticking to the diet and all is well on that front and I am noticing my strength is going up and up and up!

[Back In Black]

Ah, you see, running is bad for you!

Have you changed your running shoes, surface/terrain.

[ElDude]

Thats the weird thing. I have not changed shoes or running surface. I usually run in the morning and will switch it up between trail/road/treadmill. I was run in some New Balance Minimus shoes, which have absolutely no padding whatsoever. Everything has been fine with those since I got those shoes about 2-3 months ago. But then 3 weeks ago my calves start to ****ing BURN every time I run.... It is putting a major damper on cutting up.

[Back In Black]

Are you on cycle?

[GirlyGymRat]

hello....home stretch....
