I really didn't want to do any form of detox or 'giving up' for January. The reason so many people fail at those targets is because it's a forced thing, not something they want to do. First thing you have to change is your mindset.
So I've done that, using the considerable amount of extra time I've had recently to try new things and see where I want to go next. This was described as a challenge, and the person telling me about it knew exactly how to phrase certain things to make me bite!
28 days muscle building program. Now I don't want to be an Arnie, or anything similar, but after so long of working out with the plan to loose weight (and lower body fat %), a programme of workouts designed to make you bigger sounded refreshing.
So, today was day one. As anyone in the fitness industry will tell you, the most important part of training is diet. You can do as many sit-ups as you like, but no-one will see them unless you stop putting fat in front of them. So for 28 days I'll be having no alcohol, no wheat, no dairy, and no sugar.
A solid breakfast, then into the gym. Straight after the workout, the buzz I felt was really something. Now, about 8 hours after finishing, I'm shattered and have a pretty good idea which bits are going to be sore in the morning!
I've managed to eat regularly, hitting about 130 grams of protein, which will have to go up by the end of the week but it's a good start. It's now about half seven in the evening and I'm ready for bed!
Sorry for the boring blog, but I need to keep a log of how I'm feeling. I'll hopefully get my BCA done tomorrow so I can have some more useful stats then just weight. I'll write up my blog earlier in the day as well, when I'm not so tired. I'll also measure a few parts of my body as this is supposed to be generating bigger muscle in a month!
