The first full day of spring, and what do we get? It’s like winter left giving us a swift kick in the pants on the way out. Or spring is messing with us. Either way it isn’t very nice… I am going back to lifting 3 days a week now with the lowering of [...] So cold this morning. So cold! It was minus 5 degrees and I was not wanting to go out in that weather, so I stayed home instead I figured I would either do a rest day or ride the trainer later. No running today, and I will address that below. So, I made up [...] You all know I love my bagels and bread, so on the lower carb days I was just not having any bready type things. I have made oopsie rolls in the past, but they are a little fragile. Then I came across this cookbook at the library (and I do like Dr. Eades blog). The [...] Okay – book review time! I will say that I really wanted to read the entire tome of Good Calories, Bad Calories by Mr. Taubes and it was just a little too much for me to take. Too heavy a reading for my bedside table. The Why We Get Fat (heretofore called WWGF) is [...] Happy Thursday! It’s almost the end of the week! Yippee! I was up and ready to hit the gym. After a protein drink, I headed out and got to work. Exercise Set/rep/weight Muscle worked Barbell Squats 3 sets of 10 at 75# Lower Body Alternating bent dumbbell row 3 sets of 10 with 20# DBs [...] I was worried that snow would keep me from the lifting today, but I lucked out as it seemed to have been delayed some, so I was able to get there before the snow really accumulated. Here is me pulling out of my driveway. It’s not quite fully light out, so I don’t know [...] Another week begins I was up and ready for a run today. Must be all that Super Bowl food I ate yesterday! Hooray for pretzels! I headed out for the treadmill and did 3 miles with a speed arc going from 5.0 to 6.0 mph and back down over the course of the 3 [...] Hooray for Friday! Today is a lower carb experiment day. I am shooting for 100 grams of carbs. I went off to the gym for my dose of iron Exercise Set/rep/weight Muscle worked Stiff-legged deadlift 3 sets of 10 at 75# Lower Body Seated Lat Row 1 set of 12 at 40# 1 set [...] Bagel Wednesday Thursday! Roads are all clear. They actually do quite a good job around here keeping the roads clear. First, I rode the trainer a little bit. I tried reading for the first time while on it. That was a little weird at first, but the time sure went by fast! This is [...] |
