My damn scale broke so I'm flying blind. It's so weird to not be able to weigh myself... I do every morning regardless of cutting, bulking, binge-drinking... you know, whatever fitness phase I'm in.
Highlights of this week:
- Found a suit:
But where's the butt part? |
Look at that fat a-.... ooh look! Shiny! |
- Ordered stripper shoes: Don't wanna discuss it. They're five inches tall. They are clear plastic. Say it with me. I am an athlete. I am not a stripper.
I can only hope this guy is backstage. |
- Started practicing the posing: This shit is difficult! I am not joking! Try to stand with your hips facing one way and your shoulders facing forward. It's like the worst yoga twist ever. In five inch heels. It does make your waist look small and your ass look bangin' though. And your shoulders look extra manlike apparently.
Ohmygodohmygodohmygod.. hold it... my back is gonna snap |
- Booked hairstylist/make-up person: My cousin Shannon hooked me up with a girl that does some of the local competitors hair and make-up, and she took me on! Best part, it's about half what I thought I'd pay. Winner winner chicken dinner.
So this will be the format of my weekly check-in.. with
an arbitrary letter grading system. I'm a sucker for judgement, clearly.
Bod Progress: B
Things are looking up a bit. Been cutting for a week and am noticing some new ab lines and a little in my shoulders. I'm feeling pretty strong in the gym and like I'm not losing any muscle.. yet. My big concern is leaning out, especially in my stomach and lower bod, but really all over. Not freaking out, I know I have time, and I'm appreciating the muscles while they still look big.
I am all that is man... |
Mental Check-In: B+
Aside from my little meltdown earlier this week, I'm feeling fine. I'm pretty lighthearted about this whole thing, and am finding a lot of humor in what I'm learning. The diet isn't killing me yet, but today being up for a million hours coupled with PMS has left me a raging snack monster.
Training: A-
Good things, good things. In the gym, doing the same thing I always do. I need to start adding a little more cardio probably, butttt.. I'm a runner, and runners don't do "cardio". We shall see.
Diet: A
It's going so well man. Hitting calories and macros perfectly. Not feeling deprived. No real treats to speak of. Could super go for a beer though.
