Week 7 & 8 - Spring Break Gains4/12/2021 My ProgressWeek 7 was Spring Break, and I went to the beach on Spring Break. I worked out once before I left that Tuesday and I did a lower body day. I did back squats, Bulgarian split squats, and calf raises. I worked up to about 75 percent of my max on back squat, and that was pretty hard to do. My max on back squat is currently 270 pounds. But the good thing about going on vacation was that I got to eat some great, protein-packed food. One example of these were fish tacos. At the beach, I always love to get some kind of seafood everywhere I go. It is my favorite. These fish tacos were great for me because I got two tacos and each one of them had a big piece of fish in them. The tacos had the piece of fish, some slaw on top, lettuce, and some kind of sauce on it. They were delicious and very good for my weight gaining process. Another good meal I had at the beach were fruit pancakes. The pancakes had protein in them, and I got some blueberries and strawberries on top of them. This was my kind of desert for the week I guess. My Weekly ResultsThis week I weighed in at around 139 which was expected after not working out that much since I was at the beach during the week. I hit 260 on my back squat before I left, which means I can work up from there in the last stretch of my project. I just need to eat more and find ways to workout more in the coming weeks even though I have baseball everyday now. I can't give up, I need to hit the 145 mark so I can accomplish my goal. I am going to start going to workout on mornings during the week I don't have school so I have time to get back, do homework, and then go to practice.
