Lots has happened in the last couple of weeks. I have started tracking my diet with MyFitnessPal on my IPhone. My calories have been very strict, and I have not gone over my allotted calories for that particular day. I try and keep my fat very low, and my protein at about 1gm per pound of body weight, and my carbs around 40% of my diet. So far, so good. The only discouraging part of the whole thing is, my body fat hasn't dropped at all in the past 2 weeks. I'm not sure what to make of that, but i'll continue to monitor it, and see where it goes.
As for my training, I am still training regularly, but the times are sporadic, and therefore a little chaotic for my liking. I'm still getting all my workouts in for the week, but it is just all over the board. My gains have leveled off, and that wasn't unexpected. I will say that I am consistently sore though, and that worries me a little bit. I do not want to believe that I am over training, but I do have to make sure that I am closely monitoring it. I do not want my workouts to be counter productive.
My supplement intake has been very consistent. Protein Shake with creatine, first thing in the morning, along with my Armor-V vitamin. I then eat an orange, and have a cup of coffee. 10 am a bowl of Oatmeal, and then lunch time, I have usually have a good carb, protein, and some fruit. Again, I feel my diet is pretty good, not great, but a heck of a lot better than it was.
As for football, there are a lot of things I need to work harder on. I really need more receiving practice. I let too many balls bounce off my hands in warm-ups last night, and my confidence was a little shaken, which mentally is not acceptable. So, more work, and more concentration.
My goals are becoming more and more clear. I need to increase my speed, strength, endurance, and weight, and reduce my body fat. Once I see those things happening, I'll worry more about numbers, and actual milestones.
