Gym progress 10/13/18
When last I left these pages, I was griping about energy and motivation. I said I hoped that the gym would perk me up and...
...it DID!
I'm going to present the workout in a different format today, to see how that works for me. I'll be recording total volume for the workout as I list the sets. Here are some notes on volume as a concept...note that I am not at that level yet ;>. The point is this, as it is in any other view of strength training...KEEP LIFTING MORE

So, over 20 tons today ;>
You load sixteen tons, what do you get
Another day older and deeper in debt
notes
Not quite the image I was looking for, but it lead to this(Why Your Lazy Ass is Making You Depressed) interesting article...
1- I like this format; I will try to remember to do it this way again
2- There is the issue of distance in moving the weight. The shoulder shrugs are shrugs for example. Everytime i lift my fat ass out of the chair and go grab another donut, I am working out ROFL.
However, for the purposes of tracking workouts, i think this approach will work
3- Today was heavy on leg work, so days like this will be skewed towards higher totals.
4- The "i" on this keyboard is pissing me off, it won't record the SHIFT towards capitalization, and yet it creeps into almost every other word I type ;>

Cut out the sugar too!!! I am much happier without sugar ;)
excellent point. i didnt really go into the overeating /lack of QUALITY sleep cycle.
and sugar is really big on stuff i shouldnt do, but do anyway list.
I'm going to avoid it and flour today
hopefully, i picked up a bit yesterday anyhow, so i can hope adjusting diet pushes me back into normality
There are some really good sugar free cookies. My personal fav.

I have got back to get in the habit of bananas and/or almond milk spiced up with cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice. a lot of calories, but really good clas.
once i hit a sugar eating bend it goes on for days before i nut up and control it
Ok watch out for sugar substitutes and sugar alcohol. Had a bad experience with those sugar free cookies that used malitol instead of sugar. They are a sugar alcohol and are less calories, but my body reacted the same way it does to sugar and worse. I got the regular acne I get from eating sugar AND had problems with having long periods of gas. Stay away from malitol, one of its side effects is gas, other is stomach pain... ugh lol
i usually feel better whn I use honey or (believe or not) molasses
but as tyou were saying, they put sugar into pretty much everything these days, and I do think it is physiologlly addictive
