Upper Body Workout

Monday was my first day back to the gym and it was interesting! It was kind of weird being back there and not fully being able to workout. I was feeling apprehensive at first and thought let me just get this over with!

If you ever want attention while you are working out just put on a leg brace. After getting over all the awkward stares, I got down to business.

Upper Body Workout

Tricep Machine Pushdowns  x 4
Barbell Chest Bench Press    x 4
Dumbbell Shoulder Press      x 4
Narrow Grip Lat Pulldown    x 4

It doesn't sound so bad, but after 40 minutes my upper body was done. This workout hits your triceps, chest, shoulders, and back. Nice and effective!

Macros & Metabolic Damage

Lately I've been doing a ton of research about my macro needs and metabolic damage. When I went off my food plan a couple months ago, I went crazy-food wise haha. I definitely binged out on everything that was off limits because I missed all of those foods. Even having egg yolks were a treat! Haha that is kind of pathetic to me. I mean is one egg yolk really going to mess up my whole eating clean plan? For me the answer is no.

Now that I don't have to be that super strict, it's been nice to enjoy all those foods again. I probably gained about 4-5lbs since May just by increasing my calories back up what they were before I started leaning out.
