It's been a few days since I last spoke, but my weekends and Mondays are rest days for me; this could eventually change, but until I complete Semester 2 it will stay the same.
Today was another good day for legs, I did my usual but I upped the weight for my calf raises from 79kg to 86kg which I was happy with.
The area of the gym in which I work on my legs was rather quiet today, which was great for me; I prefer it when there are less people- It means I don't have to wait around for weights.
I wanted to up the weight for my lunges to 10kg in each hand, but the weights were nowhere to be seen which was annoying, but Friday can bring it! I wanna show my PT that I can work hard on my legs. No pressure.
I had to halve my cardio time today, because I wanted to get back to my Nans on time to see my uncle who has came over to visit from Australia- Means extra work tomorrow!
I had my protein shake straight after my workout today for the first time; can't really say I felt any different, but I'm sure in time it will take it's tole.
For the past 5-6 weeks, I have been using an app called 'My Fitness Pal', I have used it before when I was trying to lose weight, but this time I'm using it just to keep my eye on the carbs, proteins and fats I'm taking in.


I have my standard 3 meals a day- Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, and on every 2nd hour in between these I will have a piece of fruit or cottage cheese; this is helping my metabolism stay at a good pace, and burning foods more regularly.
Breakfast- x2 weetabix, banana and milk.
Lunch- whole meal bread and protein filling (chicken, turkey, tuna, salmon, egg, etc.) and a cereal bar.
Dinner- protein (meats, fish, eggs, etc.), fibre (beans, vegetables, etc.) and carbs (sweet/ normal potatoes, bread, etc.)

This is me below a month in training, tomorrow I will post an image of what I'm like now (2 weeks later)
