If it at all helps, here is tonight's effort to get some decent nutrition into me (it won't let me rotate the picture - nippy!!). I've got a legs day planned tomorrow. My focus is really on trying to grow this area to attain some balance and proportion. I fear I may have to go through a bulking cycle to actually see results but lets hope not.
Its 200g of Coley cooked with black pepper & fresh lemon, half a packed of Uncle Ben's wholegrain rice and some baked peppers with Italian seasoning. Odd combination I agree but its all there was in the fridge :-)
Bulking for those not familiar with the term refers to when you increase your food intake to fuel muscle growth. Workouts aren't enough you need to feed your body for it to repair and grow. With this comes an amount of fat gain, which is unavoidable but can be managed by keeping your diet as clean as possible. Bulking will then be commonly followed by a cutting phase - food intake lowered, cardio increased, ie. trying to lower body fat to unveil all that muscle underneath. Like bulking it has its side effects and dramatic cutting phases will result in muscle loss if not managed carefully.
My little lunch boxes from Poundland, yes Poundland, I love that shop!! have perfectly designed sections for portion control. I'll probably throw in some more vegetables in the morning.
iPod loaded, food packed, no excuses!
I'll leave you with my latest gym track. Nicky Minaj and her rage is a common feature in my workout playlist. Mixed with David Guetta, LOVE LOVE LOVE!
I'll be the loser singing DAY DAY DA DA DA DAY out loud in the gym.
Love
