My work outs have been getting increasingly more intense! My aches and pains seem to be slowly disappearing and my numbers are bouncing back/up, I have not been pushing overly hard on the bench lately but i have been keeping good numbers, getting 3 smooth reps @ 205 lbs without a spotter, and 185/195 on the incline, and everything has been feeling really good! I have not been spending as much time critiquing myself lately as i have been, partially because my numbers aren't as good as iv wanted, iv lost a few more pounds, and i have been just struggling. But i have been noticing quite substantial size gains in almost all of my muscles and have been having increasingly more issues getting clothes off so it all seems to be going in the right direction.

Had a pretty killer work out today, back unto 225 lbs on the flat bench, but only hit 295 on my dips, had some fantastic chin ups and just a great overall workout! Now for some uni practice =D

Had a pretty good workout, my numbers were good and everything but my right shoulder was just SO tight it was making everything very difficult. I spent tons of time stretching and trying to get it to crack so i could get some relief but had no luck. I did some light leg press today thinking i shoulder try and stretch out my legs after my ride yesterday and boy was i tight! I could barely get 1/4 of a rep compared to my usual so i just took it easy on the weight and stretched myself out enough to be able to get some smooth and clean reps.
The bike ride was AMAZING! I went with a group of 7 people to Albion Hills, and we did 25 mms in just under 3 hours. We had a very new ridder with us so there was lots of breaks and a decently slow pace, but it was a GREAT ride! Super fast and flowing, lots of variety and some awesome technicals with real tight winding through the trees!

Its been a goos shitty day... Things have been rather amazing with my girlfriend, she is quite a phenomenal young ladie but... she left to kingston for school (3 hours away) so i am feeling lonely and semi depressed about it but we will get rhoguh it. I managed to turn my sadness into rage and rage into a great workout! I pushed and hit some great numbers! I will not be posting photos this month although i did take them, i am going to give it another month, i have not had to many great work outs lately so i feel like i don't deserve to share my progress, so give me another month and i'll have them up!
My car died... so i traded it in for $300 and got myself a 2006 Envoy =D its pretty awesome!

I feel like i am being dropped down a well.... My girlfriend moved to kingston for her third year in engineering, which she has done for the past 2 (i was not a part of her life during those years) and it has been kind of tough on me. I am not an emotional personal... i do not enjoy showing emotion or get emotional about just about anything... I put my cat down of 12 1/2 years and it was one of the hardest things i have EVER done but it really didn't get me blue, he was suffering and i could not bare to watch. But her leaving has sent me through a loop... My past 2 workouts since she has been gone have been much better, i am getting more sleep and turning my depressive attitude into rage and destroying my body as a result. Due to a lack of ambition i spent most of sunday loafing around and in result my back was extremely tight and sore today, so it was a tough workout. I hit all my numbers and some and really got to release some frustration while turning some heads at the same time. Its going to be an interesting fall/winter/spring.

I have been having increasingly better workouts, getting caught up on some sleep, and charging hard at the gym again! I have decided since my girlfriend moved 3 hours away for school that i would start to attend the gym every day, lose some belly fat and maybe even bulk a bit, get rid of my grossness... I will keep the same idea with an intense workout every other day, but to help keep me primed i am going to do and hour or so between days doing lighter weights more reps, lots of stretching and more cardio, it can't hurt >_< Just been working on the whole separation thing with my girlfriend and its been kind of depressing me... but i am working through it as always >_<

Hey hey, its been a while... it have been mixing this up and having some fun with things. So i have decided to start attending the gym everyday, only for an hour or so on none gym days for stretching and lighter higher rep weights, and my real workouts as usual. I headed for kingston friday night to spend it with my girlfriend, and we hit the gym both saturday and sunday.
Saturday - we went to the Kingston YMCA because i am a members and they are usually pretty nice... usually... it was rather disgusting... the facility was super run down and old, the equipment was super old and generally useless... There was like and inch of dust around the bottom of every machine, basically no spray bottles or cleaning clothes, and the ones that were there was always a walk and a half.
Sunday - We went to the arc, which is the queens university gym. I was told very good things about it by people who really don't know much about weight lifting and i had a good feeling i would be disappointed. Sure enough i was... They have a brand new massive facilities on like 6 floors, with a insane amount of equipment, with a large variety and large quantity, but it was in weird groups all over the place i i was on every floor like 9 times trying to find different equipment... and they did not have 1 incline bar bell bench press... i even asked..... they had no idea what i was talking about.... how do you have a gym of any sort without it? IT was such a piss off...
Monday - left kingston at 10 pm on sunday and got home at 1 am on monday and i was exhausted from working all day so i skipped the gym.
Tuesday - had a very awesome workout and destroyed a very satisfying amount of weights, although i pulled my hip exiting the gym by tripping on a buckle in the mat... I finally got some muscle pump going and really destroyed some stuff.
Missing my girlfriend.period.
