Back in the gym flow proper after missing a couple weeks being ill. Also discovered that a gym much closer to me has dumbbells that go up to 60 kg(130lb) as opposed to the 40 kg(90lb) at my regular gym , it also has newer equipment amongst other stuff so it looks like I will be making it my regular home.

My daily caloric intake has gone up this week. And I didn't want it too. I started this blue-collar job this past monday that requires alot of heavy lifting, and I work the graveyard shift 11pm-7am, so I've been eating a dinner before work, and then at lunchtime(3AM) I've been buying hot chocolates and honey buns to counter the fatigue. I get super hungry at lunch because of the amount of physicality the job requires. Imma have to nip this in the bud and cease to snack so much. My physique was on it's way too. My waist was shrinking, v-cute showing, lower back become tapered, and I messed it up a tad by pigging out at work and pigging out when I get home....

:sadcam:

Can you bring snacks to work? I work 330am-1230pm so I got that funny backwards ass schedule also. It'll take you a few weeks to figure out when you're supposed to eat. If you can supplement the the honeybuns with water it'll help cause your bladder will keep you awake. That's what I had to do when I 1st switched shifts.

To my brehs that wanna get in good cardio but hate running, I really suggest picking up a sport like soccer or basketball, that or cycling/biking.

Soccer has been working like an absolute charm. In one game you can run close to 5-6 miles.

Get your Ronaldihno on while getting in your cardio :blessed:

why not just spread the calories between both the days?

well I do Intermittent Fasting so it's only so much I can add into my eating window...I am 205lbs so I don't have much issue retaining mass/muscle.
