Hi all,

Sorry in advance @John as this is your topic that typically you add, but didn’t see anything recent so just putting this up now for all to share and comment on how it’s going from now and through Sunday.

Training (technical yesterday) was legs. Hit back squat, single leg extension, dual leg curls, dual hand kettle bell swings, standing dumbbell calf raises on deep dish plate, and finally cable single leg kickback using an ankle cuff attached to my low row cable attachment. Generally, increase weight with each set which was mostly 3-4 sets each. Felt great afterwards as I know I won’t get in garage gym Easter due to visiting family out of town.

I mentioned this in my last general post, but think others may be interested in my knock off Overnight Oats concoction.

I slightly adjust the amounts particularly milk and yogurt based on taste and consistency. I like to have texture but not hard where I can’t really drink it.

Apple cinnamon high protein overnight oats:
1 cup Kodiac high protein oats
1.5 scoops vanilla whey protein
3/4 green apple diced very fine
1/2 cup Greek vanilla yogurt
~ 1 - 1.5 cups milk
1 T cinnamon
Couple dashes of apple pie spice (just recently added this in)
Splash of vanilla extract
Pinch of salt

Milk is what I’ve adjusted most, so just add based on preference of consistency.

Blend all up briefly with blender, then place in fridge. In morning just shake it up good and you’re all set to hit likely close to 70-80g protein and with the oats helps me to be full for quite a few hours.

Haven’t fully calculated all macros but should be in that ballpark. I found you need at least a few hours in fridge for oats to “activate” and swell up.

Definitely is my go to when needing a quick breakfast out the door.

Here’s a pic off all the goodies.

Enjoy if you want to try it!

Gotta take my daughter to grandparents. I was supposed to wake up early for the gym but overslept thanks to melatonin. Then the hour changed ahead and lost more time lol. Maybe will get some time later.

Keeping on diet limited today so I will eat just protein when out.
 
Do they have something like our easter over there… bunny… basket….CANDY?

Yep. Not so much bunny but chickens and eggs. Alot of chocolate eggs. My wife hid a bunch all over the place for when my daughter woke up to go find.

Then like a larger gift to play with.

And officially single. The girl thought I was goig to propose Friday which made her look into whether she is allowed to marry non Muslim it turns out if she wants to adhere to religion it’s a no. She said she would maybe justify our relationship if I at least was believer in god but unfortunately for me I don’t see me converting to anything and I can’t fake it for my own person gain as that wouldn’t be right. I really wish I was one of those people that uses breakups as full. Probably have the best cut. I swear I don’t mean to get out of relationships right before i try and get back to being serious in the gym
 
Well my diet is about to go to shit for the week lol. As usual my grandmother baked as if all 30+ Aunts, uncles and grandchildren were showing up and eating. They all didn’t show or eat nowhere near as much as I would of liked so my co workers and I will be eating quiche, muffins and other miscellaneous crap until it’s gone or goes bad.
 
I promise you that one day the absolute love of your life happy ever after will fall in your lap (no pun intended) and you won’t even see it coming.

It will be effortless
