Well for the past 2ish months, I have not lifted at all.
I was up to 191 pounds and not all of it was muscle. Starting to get to much fat on my stomach area as I was not eating properly. So for the last 2ish months if been on a diet cutting weight, doing lots of cardio and only Ab workouts every other day. I am now down to 173 pounds.
Today, was first day back at the gym, still following Corey's routine and did Chest and Triceps. I was absolutely shocked how much muscle I lost. I couldn't even lift 195 - 4 times on bench as my last set. Pathetic.
Even though my lifting weight is WAY down from before, I still did the "max" of what I was capable of doing. And after 2 months off from lifting, I am extremely sore. Worked myself so hard, to the point I felt as if I was going to puke.
But the feeling of being sore, working hard, and lifting again is amazing.
I will be taking in lots of calories, 3500 - 4000 a day, consisting of Lean meat such as Chicken, as well as eggs and Fish, with plenty of water (1.5 gallons a day), and lots of fruits and vegetables.
Protein shake twice daily, Multi-Vitamin, Joint support, C4 (Pre-workout), Glutamine, and Creatine Mono.
Let the lifting routine begin, again.
