Good-Afternoon
Everyone!
AHHHHHH!!!! I can't
believe I have yet to remember to check my heart rate when I wake up.
That's it guys... It is completely hopeless. Forget I even mentioned
it! Haha.
This morning was
ehhhh. I honestly didn't have the drive or mindset to get up and get
shit done. But something in my head got my ass out of bed to get in
my cardio. I'm thinking about starting to hit cardio when I wake up,
fasted, to increase the fat oxidation during a fasted state. It may
hinder my distance/time progress due to the lack of nutrients
immediately prior to training, but the science behind fasted cardio
and fat loss for prep is my main concern. I think I may also increase
my walking time post run. In my recent posts, I document and log how
I walk home from where I end my only attempt of a constant paced jog.
I think I will be increasing the distance I walk post jog, and walk a
longer route to increase my overall energy output, and increase my
calorie expenditure.
Let's talk about my
pre jog supplementation and nutrition for today to just get some
insight. I woke up at 7AM to drink my usual whey protein shake that
had melted peanut butter blended in with it. Then around 9 or 9:30 AM
I hit up meal two, which involved egg whites, fish oil, some cottage
cheese, and some broccoli. At maybe 10:30 or 11, right before my jog,
I drank a quick MTS Machine Fuel BCAA shake, which I stacked with
Ethitech Nutrition Beta-Alanine for extra blood vaso-dialation, along
with MTS Vasky. Did the supplements completely change my progress?
No. There is no quick boost that gives you unlimited amounts of
energy or creates a new and improved athlete in one dose. Well,
maybe. But that shit is illegal, haha. I do believe the MTS stack
helped with bloodflow and pump nutrients into my legs to increase the
amount of oxygen that could reach my muscle cells.
When starting out on
my jog, I literally felt like I could go forever,.... until my shins
began to shriek in pain. Once I hit a long road that goes down hill,
all of the weight impacts directly on my shins, and began to make
them hurt like crazy. I pushed through a little bit longer than usual
and actually lasted almost 8 minutes, with a 7 minute and 45 second
constant jog time. I then spent about 5 minutes and 40 seconds to
walk home from the location I had ended up at.
Day 4
Time of Day: Morning
11:00AM
Duration till
fatigue: 7:45 seconds
Location: Around
town, on pavement/gravel streets
Thoughts: Going
down hill really impacts my shins and puts all of the pressure from
my weight on the anterior portion of my legs.
Issues in muscle
fatigue/joint ache: Not only
did my shins begin to freaking hurt like crazy, but my quads actually
started to cramp possibly half way through my cardio session.

Goodmorning
Afternoon!
Sorry
for putting this up a day late! It is currently March the 3rd,
when I actually hit my cardio session on the 2nd. I
actually felt pretty decent leading up to going outside and starting
off with my paced jog. I was skeptical on actually attempting it
today, due to a fitness/physical education class I have on
Wednesdays, that last from 2PM to 4:30PM. Not only is it a long
duration class, because long classes aren't draining enough, but you
constantly move and perform cardiovascular tasks throughout the
entire session. I ended up going for a run to clear my head anyways.
I've had so much on my mind lately, and just with tons of things
happening, I have to clear my head of the bad days and focus on me
and my journey.
I'm
pretty surprised that I pushed a bit harder on the cardio/running
session on Wednesday. Instead of getting tired and stopping around 5
or 6 minutes in, I carried on for another minute or so, and I had
stopped my stopwatch at about 7 minutes and 10 seconds. After such, I
walked home, which took me 8 minutes and 40 seconds. The increases
run time, and increased walk time indeed confirms that I am beginning
to run farther, not just slower for a shorter/same distance. I travel
the same route each session. Is this much improvement? Not really. Is
it any? You bet your ass. Maybe it was all the crap battling it out
in my head, or my cardiovascular endurance has improved a bit. I'm
going to continue to see how my journey goes and keep ya'll updated.
Unfortunately,
ladies and gentlemen, day in and day out I forget to check my heart
rate first thing when I wake up. I need to write a sticky note on my
phone or something so I can remember for once.
Right
now I am getting ready to ship some PowerHouse Aesthetics apparel to
a customer, then finish up on some homework. You can goto our website
linked below to check out our current apparel line and online
coaching services.
Currently
sipping on my MTS Machine Fuel BCAA blend, which helps me recover for
tomorrow's full body push weight session.
Tomorrow
will be my dynamic push day. I will be hitting up bottom up pause
chained back squats with about 335lb on the bar, and 20-30 chains (at
the top of the movement) on each side for extra acceleration
amplifiers. Then I will be hitting my chained floor press with maybe
295lb on the bar, with the came chains double looped on the sides. It
is all about explosive power!
Not
only am I currently 8 weeks out from the NPC Ronnie Coleman Series
classic and using this cardiovascular endurance to cut down for the
show, but also hoping for improved heart rate and blood pressure, as
well as being able to keep up with my friend ( the Marine I mentioned
in my introduction to this journey) who will be home about the time
of my show.
Day
3
Time of
Day: Morning 9:30AM
Duration
till fatigue: 7:10 minutes
Location:
Around town, on pavement/gravel streets
Thoughts:
My main issue would be my shins keeping up with the impact of the
pavement. They begin to tighten up and hurt 5 to 6 minutes into the
session.
Issues
in muscle fatigue/joint ache: Shins began to fatigue about four
to five minutes in. Began to flat foot every step as shins and calves
fatigued. Tightness in calves/shins. Back was tightening up and in
pain. Felt the fatigue from the previous week build up.
