So we're on to week 4 now, and things still pretty manageable..except pullups.. i totally suck at them,.. I've been doing my exercises generally in the morning before work but decided to sleep in a little more today so did them in the evening.. and instead of getting 5 or so done in the first set then failing immediately in the second, i got 1 1/2 really crappy ones out tonight then decided to do the incline ones instead. even then i was pretty awful. i've read ppl like Jason Block's blog and he whinged like a baby about them too (hehe) and he ended up with some pretty insane results, so i know i'm not alone.. will give me something very measurable to benchmark myself against.
Today's new diet for the week was enlightening - the carbs in the evening vanished for me last week, this week brought the addition of 2 additional egg whites during the day. Protein up - time to make some muscle - happy about that, as i've been enjoying hoofing down the boiled eggs.
Anyway, a story to finish on.. I wandered down to the supermarket last night to buy some mangos, and as i was walking to the counter, I entered into a staring contest with the sweets aisle.. i saw the M&Ms trying to get at me...but I melted the little suckers and walked off.. they can't break me.. (but pull ups can).
have a great weekend all.. we're about 1/4 through already!!!
if you can beat the M&Ms you can do anything!
