Wow, stressful day...

...but at least I managed to get a rather good arm workout in! It went well, but unfortunately I'm not getting enough protein in my diet. It's 12:55AM and I just downed 40g worth of protein and roughly 12-15g worth of Creatine Monohydrate. I'm feelin' pretty pumped even though the dosage of these supplements is rather late...haha.

I topped out alot today in the workout, for instance I curled 80lbs on the E-Z Bar 5x which is more than I've ever done. I need to start out slow with lighter weights/more reps in the beginning of my workout to get the blood flowing/nitric oxide working/muscles absorbing creatine but I'm just too lazy! I'm more focused on strength training than definition and volume training. I need to mix them better to achieve not only mass but an overall healthier physique with as less fat as possible!

You see, when you start your workout off with less weight and more reps, (such as 25 lbs curled 15 times instead of the muscle straining 40lbs curled 10)it causes your body to burn calories which results in loss of body fat, particularly from around the muscle group you're exercising which provides more tone, which is naturally more healthy. Plus it increases size by pumping your muscles with more blood flow.

Well, enough of the lecture, that's all for this post!
