Today was an awesome leg day at the gym. Cranked out quite a few squats at 75lbs. Going to hopefully attempt 85lbs next week!
Tried a new exercise today too. Cable pull throughs. I was hoping to target my hamstrings, which is always a fun thing to do, but it turns out this is for a good ol booty! I think I was doing it wrong as I mostly felt awkward and that I was going to give myself a giant crotch wedgie...I'm planning to attempt it again hopefully, and maybe get my form a little better.

A friend of mine wanted to try holding a back extension for 3 minutes today, and I figured, I can do that. Well about 30 seconds in, I was wondering what the hell I just agreed to. It was awful. Man oh man, that is killer. I feel like my butt is going to be hella sore this weekend.
It wasn't as stressful a day as there have been in the past week, but there was a lot of errand doing. And errand doing always results in crappy lunch choices. Today after some googling (while waiting in the parking lot of Rona) I found that McDonalds has a new chicken sandwich called the 12. It has only 400 calories for the sandwich if you get the grilled one. I got that one today, with no sauce, but I can't find the nutritional info for no sauce on it. I'm considering it minus 100 calories since that's how much McChicken sauce is, a whole mcdonalds sandwich for 300 cals, isn't half bad. And the sandwich wasn't terrible either.
I had a snack of some pretzel sticks and whipped peanut butter, and a babybel cheese (yum!). I ended up enjoying some pizza tonight with my folks before they head out of town tomorrow. PS. The pizza was delicious. I ain't even sorry.
Tomorrow will be cardio time at the gym, with a little back and biceps. I'm hoping that I'll be able to check out the Goodlife in Saskatoon this weekend if I have some time. Always enjoy checking out other facilities.
My snack tonight will be some protein and some glutamine. Because I'm lazy and that's what I made.
