Following the first 4 posts where I talked about my exercise for each day, and after detailing what exactly it is that I do on each day, I’m going to provide you with a weekly update rather than a daily one, this way, you won’t get bored reading and working out alongside me, and I can detail the important changes with my workouts and anything I deem significant; and also, be able to stay on “top” of my work.

So, did I have a productive week? No, not really, and my routine won’t be optimal for a while, this week was impacted because my personal life took charge, nothing too serious, but it wasn’t something I could ignore –furthermore, university work is never far off, and I’ve been taking on more hours at my part-time, and I’m not one to turn the offer of more pay down…

I missed Wednesday and Thursday’s workouts but made up for one of these days by working out on Friday, so this week I only managed to do Shoulders and arms, Chest and Triceps and Back and Biceps – no leg day this week! My diet was poor this week as well, keeping to a steady diet is more difficult than the gym itself, we’ll see if I can discipline myself until I can get back to my regular routine once all my deadlines are handed in.

For reference, my regular gym “diet” is a simple meal of cooked chicken and rice an hour or two before I walk to the gym, and a large meal of cooked chicken, pasta and sauce (very cheap and provides some of what you need to gain more muscle – fat, protein and carbs).
