Week 3 - Staying Dedicated3/8/2021 What did I eat this week?This week, I don't think I ate enough for me to maintain a steady increase in weight over the next 12 weeks. I will need to ramp it up next week. On Monday I ate bacon and eggs for breakfast, two mini pizzas for lunch, and my mom's beef stroganoff for dinner. On Tuesday, I woke up late and had a chicken biscuit from Bojangles, and then my mom made barbecue chicken for dinner. In between those meals I had a protein shake. On Wednesday, I had bacon and eggs, a microwaved Chicken Alfredo, and a chicken quesadilla from Taco Bell. On Thursday, I woke up to cereal, then had chicken and rice for lunch, and a chicken biscuit from Bojangles before my baseball game. Lastly on Friday, I had bacon and eggs, three beef tacos for lunch, and a bratwurst sausage meal for dinner. Overall, I ate pretty good this week but I need to continue to eat more each week. What workouts did I do this week?I was only able to workout twice this week because I had a baseball game on Tuesday and Thursday, so I decided to take Wednesday off. When I worked out on Monday, I had an upper body day. I did 3 sets of 10 tricep pull downs, 3 sets of 10 bicep curls, and 3 sets of 10 lat pull downs. Then after this set, I decided to max out on bench to see where I was. I maxed out my bench at 175 pounds, and almost got 185. I hope to work toward 185 pounds soon. On Friday, I did 3 sets of 8 Bulgarian split squats, 3 sets of 10 leg press (increasing weight as rounds go on), 3 sets of 10 quadricep extensions, and I finished with 1.5 miles on the stationary bike. My ProgressionThis week, I ended up weighing in at 138 pounds. I think I will be able to get this up because this week I didn't eat as much as I would like. I hope to get up around the 142 pounds mark over the next couple weeks. I also hope that I will be able to increase my bench press max that is currently 175.
