RaginCajun's Daily Log

[RaginCajun]

Had a good workout and pump this AM. Did 20 minutes HIT cardio on the bike then did an upper body workout. I can still feel tightness in my chest and A/C joint so did not go heavy on any weight and avoided chest. Hoping to do some chest on Friday. Started drinking more veggies yesterday and will continue to do so.

This is what’s in the blended juice, I use a Nutri Ninja. I put in carrots, celery, spinach, kale, lemon, lime, turmeric, shot of apple cider vinegar, kiwi, parsley, cilantro, local honey, and ginger root. Taste pretty darn good, better than what I thought. I am hoping this will help my immune system and help out with inflammation throughout my body.

Tally ho!

so far today:

post gym - green smoothie (protein powder, kale, spinach, carrots, lemon, lime, ginger root, turmeric, kiwi, shot of apple cider vinegar, celery, cilantro, parsley, and local honey. i need some plain vanilla protein but it did taste good with cookies and cream, lol!

For a snack, had a beef jerky stick and some cheddar

Had some chicken boobie and broccoli with cheese

Another shake like above but no protein powders, subbed some natty Pb in. Will try avocado in it if the ones in my fridge are still good

[RaginCajun]

Forgot to post yesterday. Did 15 minutes of HIT cardio and then rolled my quads with a barbell, hurt like hell. Did some ab/adductors in legs and did some abs.

Today, probably go in and do the same. Really need to get these knots and shit out of my legs so I can try to run again. Also still need to go see a podiatrist about this lump on the bottom of my foot.

[RaginCajun]

well, i blew all the work i put in last week by bad eating and drinking. really didn't drink a lot per say, only had 12 beers through out the entire weekend, and that includes the Saints game. Will be cutting that down to a minimum, which will still be hard while hunting season is still open.

woke up to go to the gym, but still did not feel rested. will be getting after it at some point today!

I am trying out a new gym. I have belonged to an upscale gym (LP), (towel service, steam room, hot tub, nice carpeted locker room, protein shake bar etc etc ...) for many years. One of the owners pissed me off, so I went and joined Crunch. It's a new facility equipment is nice ... locker room sucks compared to LP. It cost 9.95 a month and an annual 43.00 maintenance fee compared to 684.00 a year/ 57.00 a month and a 69.00 annual fee. The eye candy at Crunch is way better which equals more motivation. LOL

i wish i had a steam room in my gym here, and a pool. those are the only two things i miss the most! if i land a new client or two, i will join/find a gym with a steam room!

I was already doing a mock show prep to see where I would be at. This really helps make it real. I haven’t cheated or strayed from my plan at all. I’m having a ton of fun doing it too.

[RaginCajun]

went in this morning and spent 60 minutes in the gym. 30 minutes on the bike, 6 rounds of HIT mixed in there, 10 minutes walking on treadmill at 5.0 incline, and the rest of the time was spent stretching. my body is tight, but it is a good tight. weighed in at 196lbs today, that is one pound down since the start. that is good for now as i did not do good with my diet last weekend.

[RaginCajun]

Crushed it but died towards the end.

Workout:
8 sets 10 reps calf raises
8 sets 10 reps deadlifts
6 sets 10 reps hammer chest press
4 sets 10 reps standing lat pulldowns

I’m whooped

Sounds like you have earned a bucket Popeyes Chicken, Dirty Rice, and fries. Just kidding, keep up the hard work. I would have a hard time living in Louisiana and not eating all the great food there.

Wide awake and thinking about going to the gym. I forgot when tren is totally in the system you body does not need sleep.

My wife's counter part said next season come to his house. Said, just open a window and take down as many deer as I want and during my son. Son can take the buck but I like the dimie meat. They are messing with his wife's flowers and garden.
