Just had some IHOP today and just wanted to share what I had.

*5butter milk pancakes w/ 1.5balls of butter & syrup
*1Philly Cheese Steak Sandwhich - Tried to drain it of as much oil as possible by dabbing the sandwhich/meat with a napkin.
*The seasoned fries that came with the sandwhich
*Half a turkey sandwhich on whole wheat just to try to make up for the other shit I ate.

Was satisfied after the meal, but I wasn't feeling full.
This meal made my week.

 

[adidamps2]

you ate all of that in one sitting??

 

[Winter]

you ate all of that in one sitting??

Yes and I enjoyed every second of it.

[Winter]

What I had for dinner: Japanese Food

*2salmon steaks w/ teriyaki sauce(can't spell) - Tried to get off as much off this sauce as I could.
*1bowl brown rice

**Wow. These were fucking insane. I nearly passed out doing the last 5reps. After I got off of the machine, I had the worst migrane I have ever had in my life. The pain was unbareable. I rested for about 10minutes before doing one more set of pullthroughs.

Pullthrough
70x10

Very good workout today. I'm still not feeling well from those squats, I think its because I still have a bit of the cold and the hacks were brutal.

 

[luquillo78]

wow winter, amazing workout!

Shoulders look very strong. Nice squats and hack also! Keep it up.

 

[tman55]

[tman55]

i would do a few more sets and stay in the 5 rep range area. glad to hear the wraps helped though.

Hack Squat
315x20
**Wow. These were fucking insane. I nearly passed out doing the last 5reps. After I got off of the machine, I had the worst migrane I have ever had in my life. The pain was unbareable. I rested for about 10minutes before doing one more set of pullthroughs.
i'm gonna guess the head ache was from holding breath and not enough h2o...stop holding your Fucking breath..lol i do the same thing. and get the same problem some times.

Very good workout today. I'm still not feeling well from those squats, I think its because I still have a bit of the cold and the hacks were brutal.

work outs are looking good Winter. i think a lil more tinkering and you'll be good to go.

 

[Winter]

Nah man, I was breathing correctly and drinking TONS of water. I'm still sick as of right now and I was lifting hard so I guess that had to contribute to it.

Thanks for the advice though. I sometimes do forget to breathe

 

[mister69]
