Done no exercise over the weekend at all, was at a Tattoo Convention the whole weekend...time to start again today!! Might even start early tomorrow - in the morning, to start my day with an even bigger smile than right now :D
 
Elliptical 20 min (or 250 calories)
15lb dumbells - 2 sets of 40 reps of 3 different exercises.

i'm weak and chubby. hopefully doing this regularly and increasing intensities
will increase the sex drive i lost when i was a dope addict.
 
best way to loose weight is high reps, cardio and diet. eat like a king for breakfast, a prince for lunch and a peasant for dinner. all about portion control. this way you arent metabolizing food in your stomach when you sleep.

as for 40 reps...thats way too fucking high IMO. thats time you could be burning it up on the bike dawg :D. speaking of which its time to go watch the smoke rise.
 
I was going to say...40 reps? Seems unnecessary.
Are you doing high reps due to low weight?

myfriendemo keep working and continue to make positive life changes :)
Oh and don't put too much into on the calorie counter on the machine.
 
Whenever I WD from opiates, I find high VOLUME to be more beneficial for feeling "normal" again than high REPS.


In other words, rather than 2 sets of 40, you might wanna think more along the lines of 10 sets of 15.

thanks for getting that in there PI. I dont count calories (electronic or manual) or carbs. eat healthy 90% of the time so you can eat anything you want. fuck was that double applewood bacon cheese burger good last night.

BA- 15 was the number i was thinking too. great minds think alike but unfortunately your's thinks like mine ;)

myfriendemo- the most important thing to remember is your in it for the long haul. even on those days you dont want to work out you still get the privilege of doing so.
 
myfriendemo,

PM me if you have any specific questions.

I consider myself an expert on using exercise to rid myself of narcotic addiction. After all, I've probably done it 50+ times.

NSFW:
I bet y'all are too stupid to see the irony in that comment ;)
 
did a quick 1 mile run after taking 3 days off (terribly cold outside). Then I did 150 sit-ups (sets of 25). 30 raised-leg push-ups (sets of 10; wide, regular, and triangle hand positions. 30 triceps dips (sets of 10), 10 pull-ups.

Taking 3 days off and drinking heavily really fucks you itb.
