I was more lax this week, either under my macros or over by a few grams, but rarely hit everything on point as always. I also didn’t eat my full meals some days of the week due to being so full. Sunday, 22nd, I enjoyed beef stew & rice, as well as nice cabbage and green beans with my boyfriends’ family I left over macros but probably went slightly over carbs, that’s about the only time I did not really account for what I ate. My workouts went okay, no serious PR’s and 2 or 3 workouts felt hard and heavy.. Might just be an off week I don’t know. As for physical appearances, I still saw a 4 pack some days flexing, my ring is quite tight but I feel good and I feel that my body adapts pretty flipping well on such high calories! My weight was also stable throughout the week and my combined weight for the week was 61.9 kg, so no difference from last week, regardless the big carb increase. Intake for the week:
Calories= 2957

So after the entire weekend off from counting and weighing my food, I came back only to increase my intake again, YAY! I was under my caloric goals on Monday but I almost nailed it every day thereafter. It was sort of a struggle to get in my carbs daily so I resorted to cereal like coco pops and juices almost on the daily! Monday went okay, except for the fact that the bar slipped on my first rep when trying a new deadlift PR of 87.5 kg. But I benched 40 kg without a spotter and did 30 kg bench dips so that went well. My current weights for exercises are becoming easier as the weeks progress so that makes me happy. I was on FIRE Friday and hit 3 new PR’s for high reps- 37 kg front squats, 125 kg leg press & 25 kg overhead squats. It was a good week and I love all the food! The cellulite and slight body fat gains, not so much though lol. My intake= Calories= 2920
An alright week... Hit my macros closely but not as exact as always. I went over carbs by 2g some days. I enjoyed dinner with my boyfriends’ parents on Sunday too. This was a rushed week since I started work early and had to rush through my training to make time to study as well. I struggled at the gym on Monday but Tuesday went great! I hit a few PR’s during the week also. I did however notice that my lower stomach is a tad bit more “bulgy” than always and my ring is tighter than usual but it’s all good. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday I did not count my macros because I went to the dam with my boyfriend’s family so I relaxed, ate when I was hungry and made sure to stay a little under my daily intake. I enjoyed mostly carbs lol. I may have been very under my protein goals! My weight for this entire week combined is 61.67 kg. I’m going to get the average weight of the entire week to rule out early morning weigh-ins, constipation (ew... I know, get over it!) and other factors. My intake for the week=
Calories= 2871
Such a struggle to meet my macro goals when I’m at work for 5 hours straight without taking a lunch break! And I’m also starting to spend a lot less time studying, which leaves me kind of stressed out! I enjoyed dinner at my boyfriends’ parents’ house on Sunday and enjoyed ice cream some nights throughout the week. I also hit 2 new PR’s this week: on my squats, bench press and conventional deadlifts! I took the day off on Wednesday and just trained on Saturday instead, due to not spending enough time studying on Monday and Tuesday. I am noticing that my ab definition s slooowly starting to make a disappearance as I increase my food every week. But I’m surprised at how my body is reacting to all these calories; I’m still maintaining a somewhat lean figure with minimal body fat gains. My weights for the week: Sunday- 61.6 ; Monday- 61.1 ; Tuesday- 61.8 ; Wednesday- 61.1 ; Thursday- 61.7 ; Friday- 61.3 ; Saturday 61.7. My average for this week is 61.5 kg- I’m going to work according to averages since I no longer weigh in at the same time daily and I’m weighing much earlier which means a higher number on the scale. Intake this week:
Calories= 2806
A rough week! So I got a part time job, while I’m still studying, and I never packed food during the week so I had soooo many calories left to eat every day after work!! My workouts were sloppy. I felt weak and lacking power during my workouts if I trained after work as opposed to training earlier in the morning before work. I’ll have to schedule everything perfectly this coming week. I hit my macros everyday with 1g short of protein or carbs, so I had no trouble getting it all in. I hit a PR on Sumo Deadlifts on Tuesday when I still felt crappy at the gym. Wednesday I did bodyweight dips unassisted again for probably the first time in a year. I also increased my front squats by 2kg on Friday… so I guess this week wasn’t as crappy as I thought! My weight hasn’t gone up since last Saturday but I’ve been hitting the 61 kg’s a lot more often. My ring is tighter as are some of my clothes so that’s a little discouraging lol. My weights for the week: Monday- 61.9 ; Thursday- 61.6 ; Friday- 61.3 ; Saturday- 61.3 My intake for the week:
Calories: 2785 P- 137 C- 362 F- 89 |
