CJ the (soon-to-be) Mighty Posted October 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 Recap for Oct. 14 No lifting, it was a planned rest. I had a salad with lunch so I got in my vegetables. It wasn't a work night, so I stayed up late watching HBO's West World. I highly recommend it. I did get the kitchen cleaned. 1 Quote "Destiny is important, see, but people go wrong when they think it controls them.

CJ the (soon-to-be) Mighty Posted October 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 Recap for Oct. 16 I got more lifting in with bench presses and overhead press being the focus. I got my vegetables in with some Jews Mallow - not an ethnic slur, but a spinach-like green that my wife stews with rice and chicken. It is really good, especially with vinegar. I picked up the living area portion of the basement, so the house was taken care of. I got to bed on time, barely. 2 Quote "Destiny is important, see, but people go wrong when they think it controls them.

CJ the (soon-to-be) Mighty Posted October 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Recap for Oct. 17 It was a cardio day, so no lifting. There were no vegetables on Monday. There was also no cleaning. I did get to bed on time, so it wasn't the most productive of days. Quote "Destiny is important, see, but people go wrong when they think it controls them.

CJ the (soon-to-be) Mighty Posted October 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Recap for Oct. 18 I got my lifting in Tuesday with some Overhead Presses and Barbell Rows. It felt good. I had my vegetables with a salad at lunch. I got to bed early and had a pretty good night's sleep. Sadly, no housework was done. My wife has a really sore back and I had to go to the store to get her some icy hot and Tylenonl as well as helping her stretch it out. 2 Quote "Destiny is important, see, but people go wrong when they think it controls them.

Grymm Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 It certainly does look like you're hammering through this challenge. Well done! Keep at it! 3 Quote Intro Challenges: #1, #2, #3, #4, #5 Link to comment
CJ the (soon-to-be) Mighty Posted October 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Recap for Oct. 19 I got my lifting in with some dead lifts and rows. The rows were pretty easy, but I am really struggling with my grip on dead lifts, especially the last rep or two in each set. I didn't really get anything else accomplished for my challenge, so I have to get back to it today. 1 Quote "Destiny is important, see, but people go wrong when they think it controls them.

CJ the (soon-to-be) Mighty Posted October 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 Challenge Recap Things that I have learned this challenge: I enjoy working out 4 days per week. I do not enjoy heavy squats and dead lifts in the same workout so I will have to give up on the Candito program. I think I am going to try GZCL next. I can eat salads every day and not get bored. Spinach is pretty good. Cutting off electronics at a certain time makes it easier to go to bed. My wife likes it when I do housework every day 1 Quote "Destiny is important, see, but people go wrong when they think it controls them.

ixaera Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 13 hours ago, CJ the (soon-to-be) Mighty said: I do not enjoy heavy squats and dead lifts in the same workout so I will have to give up on the Candito program. I think I am going to try GZCL next. I do okay with this as long as one of them is treated like accessory and doesn't involve any AMRAPs or PRs. I think I would feel the same way otherwise, though. Interested to hear what you think of GZCL in the future! YAY learning things~ Quote Link to comment
