BGB's Journal
I thought I'd start a journal to keep me on track as well
It's been 2 weeks since my first competition and I'm slowly increasing calories to gain lean mass. I'm finding it pretty hard though. First of all I'm not all that hungry, then I find if I eat anything but chicken and broccoli my stomach hates me, I get bloated and don't feel great :S I figure I'll adjust soon....
My training is on track, training 5 days/week, no cardio, lifting heavy.
Can't wait to follow your journey!! You have a action packed summer ahead of you with the opening of your business!! Keep us all updated on everything you are doing
Great to see you are still eating healthy and training hard Thats soo important for improving and maintaining your physique!!
Trained quads today pretty hard, wanted to train them a couple of days ago but my hamstrings were too sore lol.
I did 4 x 10 front narrow stance squats with a measly 65lbs lol I alternated these sets with 4 x 12 bodyweight sissy squats. Then I did 4 x 12 leg extensions with 70lbs. Finally I did 4 x 20 walking lunges with a 30lb barbell on my back
My stomach tried to kill me this morning.. I can't figure out what it is that it hates... I'm going to try cutting out any wheat/gluten and see if that helps.

I'm opening a gym with my bf www.freeformfitness.ca
So we just book a 1 week all inclusive trip to the Dominican Republic, we leave Monday the 19th at midnight from MTL An amazing deal we got and we know we won't be able to go for a while after this so we jumped at this deal!
I'm going to make my diet strict and carb deplete leading up to the trip so I look in top shape on the beach! Training and diet to gain will have to go on hold until we get back I guess!

Re: BGB's Journal
I just read in BGB other post that she's already travelled there, so i'm sure--she is quite aware of the water
I just started travelling when i met Darrin and our first trip together i was sooooooooooooooo sick-went to the Mayan Riviera..ohhh ...then last year We went to Punta Cana and I was fine but Darrin and 1/2 our resort got ill...then this year was Jamaica and besides me having a brutal hangover one day we were both just fine----until we got home and my tum was crazy bloated..took a few days to adjust.
Where else have you been BGB? Any other exotic locals?
Hey - I've been to Cuba once and that's it, 3rd time to the DR and can't wait, love it there I want to go to tons of other nice islands and will in time, but on a budget the DR and Cuba are where it's at We got a crazy deal, $1000 for the 2 of us, taxes/fees included for a 4 star (I think it's mor a 3.5 though but that's fine!)
I've never been sick other than on the way home thankfully but I'll be sure to bring some meds just in case Immodium ... is that for the runs?
I'm going to aim for eating healthy and just endulging a bit in bad foods and lots in alcohol
