It's Friday and I am dragging ass. But I drag ass every Friday, so I can't say for sure it's the lack of carbs. Something must be working because I weighed in at 122.4 this morning.
I was REALLY tired yesterday too, but I haven't felt terrible this week at all. I have had fewer migraines this week than previous weeks too (none so far this week and I have really been struggling with them this year).
I did one hour on the bike yesterday morning and then a tough leg workout last night. 10 mins of climbing stairs after legs was all I could handle. I got up this morning and did 55 minutes on the elliptical, but I was sore, and it was brutal. It was one of those cardio sessions where I spent every single minute of it trying to talk myself into staying on the elliptical. Got it done though. Gonna do ARMS and another cardio session tonight.
Here's a summary of my leg workout from yesterday.
SQUATS - ass to calves, you know it!
Barx15
95x15
115x12
145x8
165x6
165x6
165x6
95x15
Seated Calf Raises - with 70 pounds on the bar, I did these in btw squats and SLDLs, probably about 5-6 sets x 15 or so
SLDL - because I haven't deadlifted in a couple of weeks and wanted to hit the hammies
95x15
115x15
135x10
135x10
Leg Extensions - used the Nautilus machine, I think. I did 5 sets with a squeeze at the top. Last 2 sets were drop sets (20+ reps), and last two sets were also supersets with the Nautilus lying hammy curl machine, which I also did as a dropset.
I did a couple extra unweighted calf raises on my left calf and a couple extra lying hammy curls with a squeeze on my left hammy, both of which are lagging way behind my right side.
