Day 17: Today I went to the gym and got my arms done!! I added this arm workout to my program because I love it and its probably the best arm routine Ive seen and felt. Its really hard for me to get my biceps sore and feel like i got a good work out in. But this does the job.
*All pairs of exercises are superset
Standing DB biceps curl with sup. 3 x 12
Lying DB tricep extension (both arms) 3x...

Day 15: It is 10:24pm and the cravings are starting to kick in. All I can think about it food, but horrible food. I only crave this food at work, never at home. I don’t get it, I think I need help hahaha. I think someone must have sprinkled some crack on my food last time I ate bad or something hahaha. I think the reason I crave some of these things (stuft pasta, pizza, asada nachos, chili...

Day 14: Breakfast time!!! My favorite part of the day. Today I was gonna make pancakes but instead I just made oatmeal with almonds and cinnamon, and egg whites. Going to Costco and buying a crate of 72 eggs hahaha. Again, I am not excited to go to work tonight, with all this time off lately, it make me not want to work hahaha. But my job is so easy!! and fun of course. Last night I slept for the...
Day 14: Just got off of work, gonna crash out for a few. Today is my chill/relax day, I get so bored on these days hahaha. I ended up having a cheat meal on thursday, I had my carne asada nachos.

Day 10: So I thought maybe I’d have my cheat meal today, but for some reason I’m just not in the mood…. hahaha. But maybe that means I’m not supposed to have it, I can do without for now!!! Today I did bi’s and abs with my buddy. I broke out a pretty good sweat today, hopefully my bi’s wont be as dead as they were last week.
So today I went to my buddy’s...

Day 9: so I brought double the veggies tonight, edemame and green beans. An I’m still craving freaking carne asada nachos!!! What the he’ll is wrong with me???! The last time I had them, they must have sprinkled some crack or meth in them to make me keep wanting them. I don’t get it, I don’t get cravings like this when I’m at home,
Only at work. I don’t know if...
Day 9: I’m already 1/10th of the way done, sounds crazy when I say it like that. I had some legit pancakes again this morning. I wish I had some granola to put on them, they would probably be even more bomb with them. But today was cardio, went to the gym and did abs and walked on incline. Its also the first day that my biceps are no longer sore!!! what a good feeing!!
But lets talk about...

Day 8: So I went to Borders yesterday while I was at work, and got an awesome steal on a book. The Borders in my city is going out of business (don’t know if its just this one or all of them) and everything is like 30%-50% off. So I went and bought a book on the Paleo Diet called A New Evolution Diet by Arthur De Vany PhD. A buddy of mine was telling me about the diet and I became curious...

Day 4: It feels so good to have everything back on track. I missed having my workouts and diets both at 100%. I would say that getting used to the diet again on athlean has come pretty quickly. I didn’t feel hungry or anything today. I also went to costco with my buddy and stocked up on a couple things for the next week. Got 7 pounds of all natural boneless chicken breast, tub of cottage...

Also last night was a little rough at work, I was a little...
