Additions...

In addition to these basics i've added a tension band... In theory, this should help me build on muscle without weights.
For now I'm strapping it to my bed frame and using it to add tension to bicep curls.

3 sets of 10 reps per arm, and using the method of dynamic tension (flexing the muscle as you work on it). Hopefully this will add that extra bit of workout to my biceps and triceps.


Late timetable today, as took a quick trip to Legoland:

8:00 - Yogurt & Granola, 2x Eggs, 2x Rashers bacon, 4xToast

15:00 - Small Coleslaw, Chicken breast, KFC fillet tower meal.

16:00 - 20 Bicycle kicks, 20 crunches, 20 Push-ups, 40 Bicep curls (tension), 10 Ab twists.

16:45 - 70mg/125ml Protein shake

20:00 - 2x Rashers Bacon, 2x egg, 2x toast.


I'm starting to see a pattern with take-away food here. Probably doing this whole dieting thing wrong, but when you've not put on any weight in over a decade, you don't really know the correct way to gain weight... And besides, takeout is much tastier!

Right, time for bed... May have to throw in a set of push-ups just to balance out the junk food (Starting to get a bit addicted to the burn!)
