POST WORKOUT SHAKE


30 GHRs

10 neck bridges each side



Notes: Just another solid workout, especially so early in the morning.  Remembered a lesson learned from last time and took off the elbow sleeves for cleaning each rep. If I keep them on, my arms get too pumped up and I have trouble gripping the axle.  Same reason I don't wear them for Grace.


Took weight off the weighted chins since I was moving so fast between sets.  Better to get in quality reps with lower weight vs ugly stuff just for the sake of more weight on the bar.


DB pressing wasn't awesome, but chased it with assistance.


Did a superset with BBB work and forgot that I normally did the pull aparts with the raises.  However, I like what I came up with as a solution, and may just do that moving forward.  Side delts were torched at the end.  


Really liking bringing back the bridging.  I make sure to wear a beanie, as I have less hair than I did back when I wrestled.


Weighed myself last night before bed and clocked in at 188.7. Up a pound since the last time I weighed myself.  Night time weigh ins aren't as consistent of course, but the trend is good.


Was honestly pretty pleased with my breakfast.  I premade 2 eggs and 1 egg white and mixed it with some grassfed steak and 1/3 of an avocado.  I was originally going to microwave it, but microwaved steak is a tragedgy, so I ate it cold while I toasted a keto waffle.  By the time I was done with it, the waffle was toasted and I slathered some sunbutter on it.  Just a handful of minutes and I had a ton of solid nutrition in me.  It honestly doesn't take much to set yourself up for success ahead of time.

  1. I've been eating Kodiak protein waffles but keto waffles sound interesting, I might look into them and resist the urge to defeat their purpose with syrup. Out of curiosity what kind of protein shakes you drinking these days?

    1. If you wanna do syrup, check out Walden Farms

      Stuff is legit.

      These are the waffles I use

      We also make some using the mix, but these are convenient first thing in the morning.


      For protein shakes, I use Dyamatize, since it's at Sam's and is basically pure protein with minimal carbs and fats. I mix it with the liquid eggs whites from eggwhitesint.com. I also throw in some "Amazing grass" greens supplement, because getting old is fun, haha.
