Background
Alright! Getting into the fitness lifestyle can be difficult for alot of ppl, especially those of us that were raised on greasy meat and potatoes, or even hamburger helper and puffed rice cereal. That's how it was for me when I was younger, with 6 siblings it's hard to get great nutrition with parents on a strict budget. Later though, my mother decided to get back into the swing of things. She used to compete in bodybuilding in the late '80s placing top three in all of the shows she participated in. She even won a "best poser" trophy which she values most. She was good. Great abs, a huge back and she could do weighted dips with more than some men. Sure she got accused of using steroids but it was all just determination and blood and guts workout routines. She ran close to 10 miles every day and practiced her routines for hours before each show. She is my ultimate inspiration. She taught me correct form in the small middle school gym I started at. There wasn't much in there but there was enough. I was overweight in school, I got made fun of and boys never asked me to hang out, or go out. I was depressed, as I'm sure most of us are at a tender age when what people think of us matters so much. I decided to make a change. At age 15 I started running, at first I could barely run a quarter mile but I set large rocks, fence lines or power poles as my next goal and I made them! The first time I could run from my house to a reservoir over a mile uphill, I did the Rocky with my arms in the air and yelled. I was so excited! I love the feeling of reaching my goals. I started doing so with my weights and will continue to do that. It feels good to know you've made it. And because people have asked here is a rough idea of how I eat: Protein Shake, Ezekiel Bread 1 T. PB 1/4 Cup Oats 1 Scoop Protein 5 oz chicken 1 cup green veggies 1 small sweet potato Large Salad Topped w/4 oz chicken 1 can Tuna 15 Almonds 1 piece of fruit Chicken Breast Egg whites IF YOU'RE GOING TO DOUBT SOMETHING, DOUBT YOUR LIMITS.
If I didn't have the weight room, I would be a wreck! Stress is everywhere and it feels good to go throw around some heavy weight and kick your own ass.

My Workout Program
Shoulders & Tris, I go as heavy as possible with both muscle groups, they're a lil' behind.
Tuesday:
Back & Bi's; I do 5-6 sets of chins, my back is weak so I'm bringing it up. I will also do 4-5 different row movements to help build thickness and finish with rhomboid pinches. Biceps go through full ROM- one standing move, incline, and preacher.
Wednesday:
Leg day! Higher rep routine with plyometrics like stag hops, tuck jumps, single leg squats, lunge hops
Thursday:
Chest & Triceps; hitting mainly incline movements, plenty of push ups and heavy tricep work.
Friday:
Additional rest day or interval weight training.
Saturday:
Legs; HEAVY movements! Stationary BB lunges, squats, isometric holds, stiff deads, lying leg curls. All exercises are typically 3-4 sets of 8-12 reps. If I'm feeling great I'll add in a drop set at the end of each exercise.
Sunday- REST

Deadlift-ING
Posted in Training : Feb 06, 2012 5:14pmSo yes, we all know that deadlifts are one of the most badass movements. If you didn't know... now you do and you better deadlift like a motha! Which is what I'm doing.. it's been amazing. Seriously in 09 I tore or did SOMEthing crazy to my right hamstring/glute area and couldn't deadlift or squat or friggin walk for months. Deadlifting the bar? Yeah that's about all I could do. So the fact that I got 225# last week was badass and I felt like bragging a bit ;) It felt amazing! Now at first I was thinking maybe a 300# goal.. then I wondered why the hell I'd ever need to lift that much so onc

Posted in Nutrition : Nov 19, 2011 7:06amI'm terrible at keeping up on my blogs here! Anyway I just thought I'd write a quick hello and let you know that I'm back on track!
After a quick rough patch with training, I'm ready to see my six pack again so let it begin!!
Why, Hello LEGS
Posted in Training : Nov 05, 2011 1:19pmMy training lately has been spotty. Well.. when it comes to actually going to the gym it's spotty. I have a gym in my house so I do a lot of metabolic type workouts at home and since starting the 50 burpees/day for 50 days, my knees and elbows have hurt.. to be honest I've used that as an excuse. NO MORE! Back at the weight room for legs which seems to have been ages ago that I actually weight trained them. Between travel, house work and family events, it's been hard to get in on the weekends.
I started back as I should have, slower with lighter weights
