Today for breakfast I headed over to Jakes and got a Breakfast Bomb and some orange juice. Then after eating we all headed to the gym to get our work-out in. I was a little sore from hitting legs yesterday so I stretched for a good amount of time so I didn't strain any muscles. After stretching I got to my workout, I warmed up my back like I always do before hitting chest. if I don't warm up my back before hitting chest I can't lift to my full potential and I feel a lot of pain in my shoulders if I don't. I did flat barbell bench then went to incline dumbbell press. Then I did some tricep pull downs and over head extensions. After our life we went to lunch where I had my usual again. then after lunch we grabbed our roller blades and played some street hockey in the ted. Then I went to gold and had dinner after. It was BLTs with pasta salad. My calorie intake was 2610 and my protein was 109 grams 355 grams of carbs and 83 grams of fats. In total we had 5 hours today for a grand total of 10 hours.

 Day 14 Today was our last day and we only needed 2 hours. Since it was the last day you know I had to get my one rep max on barbell bench. Previously, my 1 rep max was 305 and I got this just before senior project and my goal was to beat the school record held by Simon Potter which was 315 so this mean I needed to get 320 lbs. 15 pounds in increase in only about 2 weeks is almost impossible. Before I threw on 320 pounds I had to warm up my back shoulders and chest. I did some lat pulldowns, I didn't do anything heavy because I was just trying to warm up. Then I did some shoulder pulls with a band and did wrist curls. I was feeling really good today. I started off with 135 x 10. Then 225x3, 275x1 and then I threw on 3 plates or 315. I got 315 up fairly easily and was a little nervous now that I was going for 320. Jack Fick was my spotter I gave him the count down for a lift-off 3 2 1 and before you know it I got 320.  Hours 2 Total 55

 Day 9 Today was the Lakes Region Championship for golf, so I didn't want to hit upper body and be sore during it. So I thought it was smart to hit legs today. I started off on the turf strip where I did some mobility. before mobility, I rolled out and got my muscles loose. I did my usual hip mobility stretches where I followed along with a YouTube video. this is mostly stretches but also some movements that help warm up the muscles in my hip area. Then I did some band work where I focused on my hip flexors, which are super tight due to injuries in the past. After that, I went into the weight room and did some back squats. I went pretty heavy but not too heavy. I did 5-8 reps for 4 working sets. then after that, I did lunges with the barbell. I went really heavy on these with 3-5 reps for each leg and for 5 sets. Then I hopped on the hamstring curl machine and did some sled pushes.  Hours 3 Total 37

 Reflection Week One This week has been filled with intense physical activity and a strong focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. My mornings often started with a nutritious breakfast, providing me with the energy I needed for the day ahead. I made sure to prioritize stretching before my workouts, particularly focusing on my hip flexors to alleviate their tightness. This helped prepare my body for the tuff leg workouts that followed. During my weightlifting sessions, I emphasized proper form over heavyweights to ensure I was training effectively and reducing the risk of injury. Lunchtime was an opportunity to refuel and replenish my energy levels. I typically stuck to my go-to meal, an egg salad sandwich with chips, white rice, and a bowl of fruit. It provided a balanced combination of protein, carbohydrates, and nutrients. Afternoons were dedicated to specific sports training, whether it was hockey, golf, or rollerblading. It was an exciting time, and I even had the opportunity...
