Week #3 of Working Out

I am finding myself to be very happy when working out. Not only that, my training program seems to be a success as well. I have lost body fat, gained muscle mass, better flexibility, and more energy. I haven’t felt this good in such a long time, ever since I was sick for a long period of time. However, I have made a mistake, but I have managed to overcome my mistake.

THIRD WEEK OF WORKING OUT

My third week of training was a success. I have gained another two pounds from 183 to 185 and my pants, shorts, jeans, and etc. are all not fitting me no more.

……….All my pants are fitting me too big now which feels great!

……….Now, you can visually see my six pack which also feels so great!

WEIGHT TRAINING MISTAKE

Every single day that I work out, I be sure to put aside at least 30 minutes of stretching. However, for some reason, I never realized to stretch my calf muscles. It never came across my mind until I injured the back of my ankle all becuase I do not stretch my calf muscles. Ever since that incident, I have been stretching my calves everyday and at the end of the week, my strain ankle has recovered what I would say at about 75 percent now, so remember, stretch, stretch, and stretch all your muscles.

STRENGTH/MUSCLE BUILDING PROGRAM

During third week of training, I have started my strength/muscle building program. For my first week of doing this program, I have seen a change in my body.

Here is my strength/muscle building training program. I

Week #2 of Lifting Weights

Lifting weights can be a success only for the individuals who are committed and motivated.  It takes dedication to reach your goals, but once you get started, you will never stop.  Working out becomes a drug that you become very much addicted to and it gets tougher to quit.

SECOND WEEK OF WORKING OUT

My second week of lifting weights has become a success.  Last week, I started off by weighing in at 181 pounds, and at the end of my second week, I gained 2 more pounds weighing in at 183 pounds.  I do feel stronger and faster than I did last week.

My workout program was the same program as I did last week, and it is working very well for me.  Now, when I go back to the gym tomorrow, I will start my muscle building program.  I will keep you up to date with everything next week such as my training program, my weight, and etc.

Weight Training Injury

When working out last week as I was doing bench press, from stupidity, I decided to see how many times that I am able to rep 315 pounds because that weight use to be easy before I got sick.  I used to rep 315 about 10-15 times per set.

However, I haven’t lift that weight for about 8 months because I was sick and I just started lifting weigts again last week, and when I lift 315 this past Friday I did two reps and I injured my shoulders.  That was a big mistake.  I should be ok by next week, but luckly I will be ok because I could of been seriously injured.  DON’T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID.
