My last meal was at 7:30pm so no food for 17 hours. I was not fatigued and it was the cardio that held me back rather than fatigued muscles.</p> <p>I am also eating way more fat (saturated and unsaturated). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-101-102#post-1965852 Tue, 16 Oct 2018 22:50:40 +0000 anne 1965852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smittie, when in the day are you exercising? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-101-102#post-1964411 Fri, 12 Oct 2018 14:05:49 +0000 anne 1964411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a busy few weeks with extra days at work and a talk which I did on Saturday, which preoccupied me for all my spare time, and took a toll on my sleep.</p> <p>Healthy eating went by the wayside, and only did one run last week, and have done one this week.&nbsp; I&nbsp; cycled into work on some days, less than I wanted to owing to a flat tire. Kept up 2 visits to the gym for weights.</p> <p>I find it a bit hard to understand eveyone's weights, especially since I think in metric, but I suspect I'm a weakling compared to most of you.&nbsp; I am pleased I can bench press 25kg for two sets of 12 reps.(after one set&nbsp; at 22.5) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-101-102#post-1963479 Wed, 10 Oct 2018 00:55:45 +0000 Anonymous 1963479@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last week I only did one workout, no sports and lots of carbs. And I don’t feel too bad because life is too short.<br /> This week I started intermittent fasting (or time restricted eating). I eat all my calories between 1pm and 9pm. It is going well, but the real amazing thing is how Much easier my workouts are!!! So counter-intuitive! My heart rate goes very high but I am not fatigued like I am usually. It is amazing. I was able to go quite a lot harder, and so much more comfortably! And all this in a fasted state! Wow! </p> <p>I still can’t give up bread though. It’s too hard! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-101-102#post-1960832 Mon, 01 Oct 2018 22:58:29 +0000 wendy 1960832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I should feel like a weakling, but don't.&nbsp; Squat 12 @ 36.5, DL 15 @ 78.5, BOR 12 @ 45, OHP 12 @ 27.5, no benching.&nbsp; Yoga 3 times and went better than expected.&nbsp; Diet has been iffy.&nbsp; Overall, I feel pretty good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-101-102#post-1960762 Mon, 01 Oct 2018 17:19:09 +0000 Anonymous 1960762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pulled my left pec. I think I did it when I lowered the dumbell incorrectly during a chest fly ( I felt it). Not too bad, but I was not going to risk injuring it worse. I continued to train on Thursday using lighter weights and more reps. Made sure I stretched at least several times a day and did weightless chest presses, fly's, and arm circles. Feels much better today. But as of last Tuesday, doing 25lb dumbell rows, 20 lbs dumbell chest presses. I shall see what I am able to do tomorrow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-101-102#post-1960747 Mon, 01 Oct 2018 15:35:42 +0000 gradfashionista 1960747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As predicted, I wasn't able to squeeze in much gym time in the past two weeks due to holidays and family obligations--that was expected. There were a few occasions where I was simply too tired and either didn't go in, or skipped weights entirely, opting for medium-intensity cardio instead. Right now, I seem to be hitting squats and bench twice per week, deadlifts once per week, and accessory work once or twice.&nbsp;</p> <p>The past week's highlights include squatting triples at 175lb, deadlifting 250lb, benching 120lb, and using 55lb and 30lb dumbbells for rows and overhead presses respectively.&nbsp;</p> <p>How was your past week or two? </p>
