Train The PJ Way Newsletter: Wimpleton Wednesday


Hey Hey, It's Wimpleton Wednesday!

 Wednesday means Leg Day!

 We Bench on Monday, Squat on Wednesday, and Curl on Friday.
Do not mess this up.
I'm serious.
Do NOT screw this plan up.

Here we go with Week 6, Day 2:

 IYBPB50#, Week 6, Day 2
Squats or Deadlifts: 3 x 5
Leg Press: 3 x 5
Leg Curls: 3 x 10
Calf Raises: 3 x 10

Ab Finisher: Leg Raises: 8 rounds of 20s work, 10s rest

Don't forget to tell the guy over on the bench, who seems to just bench all day (though you never see him really benching?) give him some quick advice. All you have to do is walk by him with this shirt on:

Today's Fitness Tip relates to spendy shakes.
Yep, talking about those $3 to $4 packages of shakes with maybe 200 calories or less in them. You put them in your little shaker (and later, you wash out all the little chunks that never break down in the shaker) and try to chug down a pasty drink that isn't really that smooth at all.
 
Congrats, you just got bamboozled.
 
I've been there with you.  I had to look for a better way that gave me a better option for less money. If I'm going to spend $4 on 200 calories, that's a lot of money per calorie, and a lot of money per day on shakes. 2 shakes a day at $8 a day is $240.  I can take care of my electric bill with that kind of money.
 
Want a better alternative? Protein powders at retail stores are pretty much the same thing and if you don't want all that protein, get some slim-fast powder instead.  It has a little less protein and doesn't get so chalky. 
 
Anyway, the cost per serving is about $1 or less for a good protein powder, and even around 50 cents per serving with a shake like slim-fast.  If you don't like the way slim-fast or a protein powder mixes with milk and becomes too frothy or bubbly (basically too gassy), try to mix it with orange juice or an orange drink like Sunny D.  Vanilla flavors taste the best with an orange juice base.
 
If you don't like that advice, you don't have to take it.  I don't like spending $4 on a 200 calorie shake, so there. I can make 4 to 6 shakes in a week compared to the cost of one of those little packets.
