Back to the grind....

Well thanksgiving proved to be a wonderful adversary. After i exclaimed to my wife Nicki that it was my favorite holiday, I was poised to do some damage on the lovely abundance of food laid before me. I cant wait for our new house so I can cook the meal!!!. Next year i promise. As you may know , I am on a clean eating plan to lean out not to compete but to finish a few photoshoots i have been asked to do. right now im about 9% bodyfat that would give me 172 lean mass which is almost 9 lbs higher than the beginning of this year. my new training split will be MON pull TUES push THURS legs and FRI Shoulders and and arms. Ill use as many kettlebell exercisess as i can and def will do kettlebells as HIIT. i Seem to have gotten much stronger since last year which makes me happy. Biking season seems to have come to a close and i had many great times on the trails with friends new and old. But back to thanksgiving day....

7am Trained legs and hit them hard with high volume to deplete glycogen to eat the thanksgiving carbs

ate a low carb postworkout meal and went to gramdmas brunch. CITRIMAX (garcinia cambogia fruit) works it apparently has properties that keep calories partitioned to muscle and not fat but it curbs your appetite. the whole rest of day i was having a hard time being hungry. I went to my brothershouse to eat with my parents. great food but Dinner at Nickis parents afterwards was very hard to get an appetite. food looked so good ad i was determined to eat homemade apple pie. It was all I could do to get one piece down!. I got home and realized that I didnt even take any leftovers home!!!! oh well. i do eat turkey and sweet potatos everyday….. so i guess my point is every day is thanksgiving for me. By the way i weighed 191.2 thanksgiving morning and the same the day afterwards. so no harm done!!!!
