Shoulders on Monday

I have been so energetic today its crazy. I decided not to do cardio this morning cos we had an early weight session so I wanted to save my energy. Monday is shoulder day! Oh, how I love to train shoulders.
Since we're training to grow shoulders we, (Elisha, my training partner and I) are lifting heavy weight with little reps. I like to do 2 warmup sets on each exercise for shoulders and I really take time warming shoulders up as they're easy to injure and thats the last thing I need. Then I do 2-3 working sets on each exercise. Love the pump from shoulders! ;)
We did cardio on the elliptical machine and boy time went fast. I hadnt seen Elisha all weekend so we had so much catching up to do. We're training at Go Health this week, music is loud, and 2 chicks on the elliptical gas-bagging laughing their heads off... We love it, hope they do to!
I find it really easy to do cardio with someone to talk to. Low intensity cardio that is. And if I dont have anyone to talk to Im always downloading really good house/dance/techno tunes to my ipod. Good music is always great to listen too when the music at the gym sucks.
Im cruising with my diet at the moment, I still have peanut butter and yoghurt and cottage cheese but I know they will be gone tomorrow. I see Jonathon Davies, IFBB Pro Bodybuilder for all my contest prep. He is the guru and I would recommend him to everybody. Down to earth , cool guy that knows his stuff.

Girls where in kindy today so that gave me time to study. Cooked dinner and prepared my meals for tomorrow before I picked them up. I try to do all my cooking before I get them so when they come home, I spend time with them and dinner is ready. I learnt today that 100gms of raw chicken is 70 gms cooked. Thats going to save me so much time now. I'll cook it all ahead and weigh it at each meal, rather than cook everyday and put each meal in its own Tupperware. Save some space in the fridge also..
Woot woot, Im so excited! I get to see Jon tomorrow. Get my skinfolds done and see where Im at 14 weeks out. Might not have to drop the peanut butter just yet if Im lucky!! Ill put some pics up soon. See where we start and where we go. Amazing how the body changes.
Time to rest, need my beauty sleep.
Hope your living life,
Froso :)
