Ahh, I've done a super set with walking lunges and jump squats and it was INSANE. I couldn't stand up afterwards for a few minutes. I love that feeling though! I'll definitely try that finisher some time.
Congrats! Sounds like you're having a good week.
smile Watch out for your back, injuries there are a nightmare (hope you've never experienced that). That stir fry sounds yummy, do you put spices in it? I'm always looking for new things to try.
Today I'm off from the gym and I had a bit of a treat when I went out to supper with my mom. Grilled chicken burger with lots of veggies and mustard, garden salad, and a few onion rings, with a glass of wine and 3 small chocolates when I got home (I have a glass of wine maybe every 6 months?). It's only been in the last year or so that I've really been able to spend time with my mom and get along, so I don't mind that I didn't eat "clean" when I was with her. She's trying to eat better too so we chatted about what we're both doing. The rest of the day was good. I tracked it and I'm actually under my calories today although I'll say I met or am slightly over because fast food nutrient content can vary by approximately 20% of what they say it contains.
Tomorrow is scheduled on the program as another off day, but I may do a little stationary bike just to loosen up. I'm very jealous your GNC guy is so cool! I may have to go in when my neighbor is working and see what she can do for me.

Your neighbor works at GNC? I'm sure you can get some kind of discount if you offer to do yard work or something. With their prices it would be very worth it XD. I tried the whole calorie counting with a few apps on my phone but it never gets past a day for me. I usually get lazy or annoyed that I don't know the portion sizes.One thing i do love though is the app I have for keeping track of my weights and reps at the gym because I hate carrying a note book around and i have my phone with me anyways for music.
The back injury scares me a bit as well because I always hear people complaining that they have a bad back. Also it's so hard for me to tell whether the pain in my back is from muscle soreness or damage. that's the one area where it feels the same.
And if you think a grilled chicken burger is bad when you go out to eat then someone should have drawn and quartered me months ago lol.
She's damaged my car so often from her "lawnmowing" that I do it just to avoid the ding marks, haha. She's offered a few times to get me anything I need but I use so few supplements that I completely forgot about it until recently. I take a few things for a health condition though and I'm almost out so I'll check with her next time I see her.

I use myfitnesspal to track exercises/weights too. I forget easily unless I track stuff somewhere. I don't track too often anymore but I'm been having issues with the aforementioned health condition so I have to track fibre, sodium, and iron and an app/website is the easiest way. Ties in well with the LiveFit program too. What app do you use? Have you tried one called GymBoss? I think it's a timer. Do you time your breaks or just estimate?
AH, I know what you mean! It's difficult to tell sometimes and it sets off alarm bells in your head. Mine is sore now but I think it's from sitting in the recliner, which has zero lower back support.
Haha it was more the onion rings I was thinking about but I'm usually suspicious of most fast-food due to the processing methods/how far it was shipped, etc. I work part-time at a restaurant that serves 99% provincially produced products, and would rather eat (and do eat) the hand cut fries, made from potatoes grown a couple hours away, than fast food fries that came from another country and were processed who knows how long ago. The wine and one of the chocolates were also locally produced a few hours away
lol
