    Thursday (187.4) (113/76)
    Conditioning
    25 minute walk at lunch
    35 minutes on the bike with 5 minutes warmup and 3 cycles of 3 minutes with hr 140-150, 3 minutes rest, 2 minutes with hr 160-170, 2 minutes rest


    So, as near as I can tell I've gained about 3lbs over the last 3+ weeks, since I started creatine supplementation. It's possible I've lost a little fat since that's a low number that could be more than accounted for by the creatine. I think the average is really around 4-5 lbs. I wanted to keep track because of the new way I'm eating these days... fasting and gorging like a wild animal should.

    Food
    Breakfast: 2 eggs with veggies+cheese, 12oz milk, coffee
    Lunch: 16oz milk, tea+creatine
    Dinner: chicken, beef loaf, asparagus, salad
    Recovery: 12oz milk

    1.5 minutes rest
    1 minute achieving and sustaining hr > 170
    2 minutes rest
    1.5 minutes, > 165

    Should have done one more but I was getting cramps in my calves.

    So I think the length of my workouts is becoming a bit of a problem. I would really like to stick to this 2 day schedule. Maybe the next thing I'll try is drinking a shake during my workout. The Squats felt heavy but I think I can keep up the weekly 5 lb jumps for a while. I will switch to mixed grip on my dl work sets, I should figure out a way to keep some of the doh work, maybe I will just start using the fat gripz on the second set and drop the weight down for that set.

    Breakfast: Blakes frittatas, banana, 1 quart milk
    Recovery: 28oz avocado shake, banana, 24oz milk
    Dinner: 6oz steak, 5 lg shrimp, sweet potato fries, salad, 16oz beer
    Snack: 12 oz milk, tea+creatine
    Snack: 3/4 cups cottage cheese

    Saturday (185.8)
    Squats
    3x3x290
    these went up a bit slow, with some (hopefully minor) good morning(ness).
    Bench
    4x5x190

    Deads
    1x5x315
    first rep double overhand, others mixed
    Accessories
    2 rounds of 12x65 tricep extensions, 5xBW dips
    Conditioning
    Skipped conditioning. I felt dizzy from the moment I left the house. Squats weren't too bad but my eyes couldn't focus on the ceiling on bench press. I managed to stumble through this though, I didn't really feel weak, just a little sick and dizzy. Screw missing workouts for stuff like that, right?


    Food
    Breakfast: 4 eggs with veggies and cheese, 2 sausages, 1 quart milk, 3/4 cups cottage cheese, banana, coffee
    Recovery: 24 oz avocado shake, tea+creatine
    Lunch: 1/2 bonsai burger, fries
    Dinner: 3/4 cups cottage cheese

    My appetite was not good, but I feel ok as I'm updating this in the am
