Finally posted my workouts ...and by the way, I am not Angela.

Ok so I finally found time to get this started. I am going to do one giant post with all of my workouts from September 1. This way you can see my progression/regression. So far, my diet has been so-so since school started. I have managed to keep my weight between 130-135, wioth it hovering more on the 134/135 side. I do my best to keep with the plan. Unfortunately, that is not always convenient and so when I am off my macro count, I keep it lean and clean. I choose vegetables and whole grains. I occasionally will have a treat here or there, but I keep that to a minimum. My issue is not what I eat. It is how much I eat. I can literally plow through a vegetable patch with my teeth.

Also, I have a food lab on Wednesdays and we make things, taste them, and then we have to write papers on the food. These foods are healthy for the most part, but they are not for the bodybuilder diet. But I have to know how to counsel and treat people in the future so it is what it is for the time being.

Okay on to the workouts: weight used x reps x sets. I am not sure what I did on the gap days - maybe cardio, maybe nothing.

10/25/2011 Back and Shoulders
Wide Lat Pulldowns 55x15, 70x10, 85x8, 100x6x2, 105x6

Side Lateral 5x10, 10x10, 15x6, 15x6

Pain in left should for about 2 months now so I don't go too heaving on shoulder press anymore.

10/24/2011
Cadio - 30 mins on stair mill. I am out of shape. I only got up to 90 steps per minute. That used to be my stead state. 6 months ago.

I wanted the 40s with the slight inc db press, but I could not get them up - I need them to be put in my hands - 35s are not that hard anymore.
Chest Dips - I do not do the assisted ones. I prefer to do them on my own. I usually get a total of 50 across 4 sets. Today must have been a tired day.
