I Am The Fit Dad...Read If You'd Like.

I am the Fit Dad and I am here to rescue you from your fatty ways. I'm a mild-mannered personal trainer and proud daddy by day, but when danger strikes I transform into my alter-ego, The Fit Dad, to defeat the Evil Dr. Fatty and his legion of goons. Basically what I'm saying is this is a bunch of mindless ramblings, with some workout and diet tips thrown in for good measure.

Eatin’ and Workin’ 11/3/11

Forgot to update this last night…my bad.

Nutrition was pretty stable today, other than a couple treats from my daughter’s stash of Halloween candy ;)

Breakfast - Homemade smoothie (as usual) consisting of blueberries, raspberries, protein powder, greens supplement, chia seeds, probiotic powder along with a bit of almond milk

Snack - Homemade trail mix and 2 apples.

Lunch - Chili!!

Didn’t have a mid-afternoon snack because I spaced it…even though I should have because I got really hungry while waiting for my daughter to finish dance class and then had to pick my son up from daycare which made me a hungry and cranky boy by dinner time.

Dinner - Big ol’ salad.  This didn’t last long in my stomach so I had to have a snack by about 8pm (I eat dinner around 5:30 or 6).

Workout was awesome, which i knew would happen after my little break.

Warm-up for a few minutes.

Warm-up #2 was 50 push-ups/50 bodyweight squats in as few sets possible (2 sets).

Group #1:

Chin-up/Dip/Jumping Jack combo.  10 chins, 10 dips, 50 JJ and did 4 sets.

Group #2:

Pulldown/Ring Dips/Battling Ropes combo. 15 pulldowns/8 ring dips/20 seconds of ropes.

Group #3:

Shrugs/Pike/Jack Knife.  Did the Pike and Jack Knife on the trusty Power Wheel…if you don’t have one, buy one.

Group #4:

Arms!!!  Triceps Extension/Biceps Curl/Lateral Raise.  2 sets of 15 reps each

No conditioning today.  Just wanted to feel the workout. All those Dips made my arms want to explode and it was awesome.  I love Dips and I’ve been working Ring Dips in more and more and they’re crazy good.
