So been here in Hawaii going on day 2 now. I planned ahead like I normally do, however this time due to travel I tried to plan and pack 2 days of meals. I was successfull through Tuesday 3/1/11 and even got my carb load in at the hotel in LA. Wednesday; however, was different. I tried to keep my food cold in my lunch back with an ice pack and also in the mini fridge in our hotel room. I prepacked a protein drink, so I had that for breakfast some almonds and some greens. Got to the airport and my meals went like so:
Times unsure:
Chicken breast, mixed greens, and almonds
Bite of McDonald’s Sausage egg mcmuffin
McDonald’s breakfast burrito
Chicken breast, mixed greens, and almonds (at this point on the plane my food was warming up and smelling a little funky)
2 Nutri-grain bars
2 Quaker granola bars
Once we landed and got to our hotel:
My food was defenitely bad at this point so had to chuck it and now at a hotel with no options for cooking and I was starving and wanting to eat anything I could get my hands on. So on our way to the beach we walked and stopped over at Subway and I ordered a footlong Tuna on wheat with extra Turkey on it. I was starving. I added tomatoes, onions, jalepenos, lettuce (I asked for spinach but they were out), and some mustard. Pounded all that then I ate my daughters cheetos and half of Cienna’s Arby’s chicken and bacon sandwich.
So basically yesterday was a failure. Lesson learned? The plane ride to Hawaii is forever long and planning ahead is good but planning for 2 days ahead away from home is extremely difficult.
Some redemption though because my still running on Utah time, today Thursday I got up around 3 am Hawaii time (6am Utah time) and got my workout in. Did arms and 35 min of cardio. I also packed my protein with me so I did have a shake + 5 grams of BCAA’s during my workout.
Today’s workout went as follows:
Bicep curls
Single arm preacher curls
Concentration curls
Triceps pushdowns
Close grip bench press
Triceps extension
Seated calves
Abs:
I’m here at the Marriot Courtyard in Waikiki and we’ll be here until tomorrow so I really wanted to make good use of their fitness room. It’s small and doesn’t have all the equipment or weight that I would normally use but it was sufficient to get a great workout in. I had to modify and adjust some of my lifts but I completed my 5 sets of each lift, I just had to increase some reps instead of the 6 reps per set for this week. I walked for 20 min a 3 mph on a 15% incline then did the eliptical for 15 min, to complete my 35 min maintaining a HR of about 130-140. So I’ll do my best but the diet looks grim until we get into our rental house tomorrow so I can actually start cooking and prepping my food again. We’ll see how it goes. This Saturday will be 8 weeks out from May 7 so I’ll post some updated pics. I’ll also post some pics of my little bro Isi, who’s been putting in work and really trimming up by working out daily with Insanity and P90X and watching what he eats and controlling his portions. Until next time Imma be Sun bathing in the Hawaii heat… lol
