RaginCajun's Daily Log

[RaginCajun]

swam a half mile at lunch time today. still ingesting too many carbs (both liquid and solid) and not hitting my macros!

[RaginCajun]

Had a very productive Tuesday. Didn't get off until late and after sitting in traffic (which pissed me off), I went run 3 miles. The run took me 35 minutes which is right where I left off except this time it hurt! I prob haven't ran in over a month so when right I finished, my legs cramped up bad!

it seems like we r our own worst enemies at times. i hate that i luv carbs. its a vicious cycle - workout only to burn the carbs eaten or to be eaten.

Yes we are! The devil is always around! I think my roommate is trying to fatten me up, she bought all the Halloween candy that she knows I crave! And to think, I printed her out slim's old daily logs cuz she wants to loose a few! Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.........

seems u r living with the devil (j/k).
there is a gal in my "normal" office location with a freakin candy jar. i hate that candy jar. seriously, this gal is at least 2 bills and brings this crap into the office just to tempt OP. some have asked her to give the candy a rest but she says just don't eat it....so i did this.....i bought a case of roasted seaweed packages. yup. i eat one or two of these to get those sweet buds to calm down a bit.

Haha! Protein shakes are the only thing that is helping me. I am glad we don't have any people like that in my office, we actually do not have any women in my office!!!! But, there are some hotties/devils in our building (I already hooked up with the one across the hall!). I may have to try roasted seaweed, where do I find it?

[GirlyGymRat]

^^^ bulk warehouse like sams/costco or any asian market. i like em, but i also luv raw sushi. i brought some seaweed to the office and passed them out to OP trying to promote healthier alternative to the evil candy.

Same here. I have eaten it straight out of the ocean, doesn't get any fresher than that! I will try to find some, wholefoods probably has it and Kroger may also. Wholefoods is literally a mile from my apartment, I've walked there numerous times

[RaginCajun]

Did a full body workout with kettle bells and did 15 minutes of rowing afterwards. All of that while feelin like dog ass! My allergies are killing me and I really need some rest, haven't really sleep well the past two days

[RaginCajun]

Did legs today. My hammies should be sore for a few days like always. It's raining over here so it looks like biking is out the question tomorrow, looking like a swim day!

[bikeral]

Looking good RC. Legs are always fun.

Love doing legs!

Wish I could go heavy again

I competed in college in powerlifting!

[RaginCajun]

Raining out so I decided to swim. Did half mile in 21 minutes, not too bad considering I can't freakin breathe!

[RaginCajun]

Did back n bis today.

That is all

[RaginCajun]

Ran 3 miles in 37 minutes. I think I am only going to be able to run once a week, my left calf (soleus/Achilles) hurts. Going to have to find a diff means of cardio in that respect which sucks because the weather is nice and so are the bunnies!

[GirlyGymRat]

maybe you need to take some time to rehab the injuries????

[RaginCajun]

maybe you need to take some time to rehab the injuries????

No way! It would drive me crazy not to work out/exercise, plus I would prob drive my roommate bananas! I found those seaweed things, not too bad. Something is going on in my calf but I don't have time to stop work and go get it looked at. It only happens when I run and has done this several times thru out the years.

[RaginCajun]

been busy as hell with work and have not lifted weights all week! just wanted to update my weight, 173.4 lbs. it looks to me like i will have to set another short term goal since it seems that is the only thing that keeps me focused. i am going to shoot for under 163 by New Year's. since i have been lifting the past month, i can tell that i have gotten stronger and that some fat has came and went in some places with my weight ballooning up to 177 lbs two weeks into lifting and now leveling back down. my diet has not been perfect and no where near perfect, so i wasn't expecting much change. i know it will be a little tougher to lose the weight during the holiday season, but i need to push threw it.

[bikeral]

Hey bro, I think setting 6-12 week mini goals is the way to go to see progress. Good luck with your new goal.

Have a great weekend.

def calls for drastic measures! it means i just have to stricter on my diet, more green veggies over starchy/wet ones!

plan will also call for more fasted AM cardio which will start tomorrow morning. would have done it this morning but i had a late night last night and body needed some rest. i am shooting for 4 days during the week with fasted cardio. i will have some tough weekends coming up so i need to make sure i am strict during the weekdays! constant struggle!

[RaginCajun]

I finally got in some kind of workout! 2 mile run n 22 minutes. Not happy with myself in regards to diet and exercise this week! Fasted AM cardio here I come!

[RaginCajun]

only did 15 min of cardio this AM, ran a mile. better than nothing!

[Back In Black]

Now RC, I hope that 15 mins isn't how long 1 mile took?!

[RaginCajun]

Peptides came in, but they are the wrong mgs!

Emailed company, they are shipping some more my way.

Pinned 2mg TB-500, 100mcg Ipamorelin, and chic-1295 no dac. Hoping to see some healing from the peps, only time will tell.

Weight is exactly the same. After my weekend, I was expecting it to way higher!

Still going for 10lbs lost by the end of the year!
