Holiday Ab countdown

So if you were gullible enough to read my last cry for help, obviously i realise how silly it sounded! "Been to gym for a month and i don't look like arnie", who was i kidding!

So i am now 7 weeks in now and this week i have been back on the running game, which i am pleased about because i lapsed for a whole month and my thighs knew all about it, honestly! So this proved to me what it was actually doing for my legs which helped me get my trainers back on i think. Really happy I've bashed a few out because i started getting the fear of not being able to run which would be terrible as id built a good base up this year.

I started running seriously again in January 2015 and built up a good stamina, i noticed that this time last year i quit running so thinking it must have something to do with the weather as i don't like the heat and sunshine for running in id rather it rain!

I can also lift more in the gym i have been naturally pushing myself and increasing weights as its become easier to rep so i'm really happy about that and its given me a better perspective and realisation that this is a long haul game and i got to be in it forever to win at it.

Its a lifestyle change I've hopefully made and it fits in to my daily routine with no pressure which is what it has to do.

Its funny how you change because if i miss a day of working out i feel it, which i like as it makes me want to go the next day.

This morning i woke up at 5.45am so got up and went to the gym before work, it was well busy and i was driving there thinking is this dedication or madness, and its neither because every other person does this and doesn't shout about it just gets on with it. So i stopped thinking i was the bomb for being there as its like going to the supermarket at the end of the day, we don't all shout about that on facebook do we!

13 days till i go on holiday so this is my last dedicated push of daily burning calories and pumping those abs ready for cocktails and lazing on the beach for a fortnight! #WECANDOTHIS

GOALS!!!

Getting ripped PAH

Well I went from one extreme to the other after re-reading my last blogpost! I've started trying to get some muscle definition by joining the gym and actually going.

I am like 4 weeks in and going 4 times a week and spending 45 minutes weight training. Now I'm no meathead or Arnold Swarchneger (however he's spelt). But I see no results???? I use my fitness pal to track my shiz and I eat lots of protein and I'm lifting more each week but body wise its not showing.

I eat pretty fuck good, always been into clean eating, cooking from scratch, no processed ready meal crap hardly goes in my mouth. I am no angel I kid you not I like me a maccy ds and a gobful of chocolate but overall I am well good at cooking and eating from the earth and all that organic turnip bumf. (I grow my own nikki fresh veg ill post ya one day)

Now I need to see some definition before I give up, what else do I do? I've been pumping on the right machines and increased my weights weekly and am doing 3 reps of each weight 8-12 times. I read you should be lifting a weight you cant do more than 12 times so I'm on with that too.

I do a bit of cardio to warm up and finish on the amazing flabelos machines which I love being shaken about on!!! I right enjoy feeling all the wobbly bits being wobbled away if that's what its really doing!! I feel like it is so I'm happy with that.

My running career is over like Madonna. Well its not but I missed a week of running and don't feel like forest gump anymore which is annoying, I'm going to get back on I really am and writing this I wanna run down street just thinking about it. My mates are shit runners too they never drag my arse out like id like them too!! can I blame them it feels good to blame them and not myself! In fact who needs them I started this journey alone and ill finish it alone!! Laughing, we me medals bouncing round my rack haha JOKES

So I've got this journey off my chest I don't know what else to add but I'm gonna finish work and get in gym and carry on working my squatting ass off cos 4 weeks clearly isn't enough time to get ripped!!

Now let me know is anyone reading this shit, can anyone relate to this shiz and what else you wanna chat about like? wheres spell checker, why don't they make a Yorkshire spell check cos there's a lot of red squiggly lines under my notes!
