I once was lost but now, am found!

Ok so another week had passed, away from gym and home.

I had been stricter on my diet, no deserts after dinner and keeping it as healthy as one can while not shopping for yourself.

I had participated in a wickedly energised box fit class with the family I was staying with and gone for two 5 km cardio interval runs.

But my muscles yearned for more! I wanted to achieve that pump. It's mentally tormenting to be away from the norm. But I had to be there for my family. Two to three weeks away from it all wont be a bad thing, it will make me hungry.

I had measured myself after the first week of being dormant and well fed, this increased my body fat percentage on the gym scales to the low 20%. While weight gain was minimal.

Since being back, all be it only about half a week, I have hammered the gym sessions quite well, getting those post day DOMS like I was a virgin again.

Weigh in results for Sunday, 13.9%body fat and a good weight to start from.

So what's in store for the near future? More gym, but looking to get back into the game a little more with getting back into supplements to help grow and acheive more personal bests and recover better.

I have a military obstacle course to complete in early November,  so I want to be on point for that too.

Ain't nothing gonna stop me being strong for my boys! Nothing!

My little Hercules'

Well it has happened.
I have become a dad.
Feeling awesome, powerful and emotional all the time.
I am now the proud daddy of two little Hercules' these boys though premature, are strong and very quickly on their way to coming home.

Hardest thing right now is going to be getting my gymlife and family life balance right.

At the moment, I'm sailing on cloud nine and taking a week to rest and energize as much as possible for what will be the biggest disruption to my life since 4am gym wake ups! But like my early gym wake ups this disruption is welcomed and will be so benificial to my health and life.

But, the weekend will bring a chance to smash out a few power gym sessions and tickle that fitness bone.

Am I worried? Nope, for the last few months I have mantained a great track of workouts and started up training my pupil again. So one week off is not going to worry or effect me, in fact gainz and PBs will be most likely increased due to this break.

What am I doing food wise? I'm not being too strict on myself. Sometimes you have to eat what you can find close to places you are stuck in, my case,  a hospital. But where I can, I've tried to eat healthy. Where I am staying, well, being well looked after for tea and breakfast, but always healthy!

Next week I'll participate in some of the family fitness activities. This will keep me going till the next oportunity to gym sesh!

Till my next post.
Keep it fit and healthy!
