According to a recent study, I would need to take at least one scoop of protein every two waking hours to facilitate recovery...

breakfast was good...

Training resumes today. Got my ice pack to help recover after that so I will probably go all out later. Spoke to Kimberley and apparently she and Ernie both train at the same gym as well. Finally a familiar face! I guess training will be hardcore from now on...

Water caused uneven weight fluctuations. Active recovery session was good and helped heaps. Calves still feeling sore but it'll heal after today's R&R. Will post gains and updates on my Bodyspace. The huge ego buster was me starting from a really low weight just to slowly revive the stagnant muscle fibers...

The Resurrection Phase I

Not being able to train properly and feeling sluggish all the time. That's what 9 months of irregular (almost none) training and falling off the bandwagon did to me. I could take the easy way out and blame my hectic schedule or the constant departure from my locale but I won't. I take full responsibility of the flab that I have clothed on to my torso. Now, it's time to chisel it off.

The training program I designed for myself is very much similiar to my previous one and is a full body training but this one bends more towards incorporating more of the HIT principles that I learnt simply because I do not have the time. I could also post it here to give readers a sense of fullness to the blog, but I won't. For cardio, I'll be doing Tabata all the way.

Day one happened yesterday. The squats and presses destroyed me... I will heal today, and return tomorrow.
