The Hurt Continues

Saturday afternoon was my second session with my trainer, Andrew.  It was a back and biceps day.  Started out with some wide grip lat pulldowns, close grip lat pulldowns, seated rows and barbell bicep curls.  I am not a big fan of lat pulldowns because they never feel like they are doing anything.  I know why that is now...because I was doing them wrong for the longest time.  Andrew made a few adjustments to my form and now that I am doing them with correct form, I really feel them working.  Once I was done with all the excercises, I could barely sign my name on the training verification form at the end of the session.  This morning, my back, lats and biceps are really quite sore and it is really hard to put my arms above my head.  I have to say again, I really miss the sore feeling and knowing I have done a workout.  Love it!  I now have regular training sessions on Tuesday and Thursday. 

Today I am supposed to have an appointment with the nutritionist.  I believe she will be going over what, when and how much I will need to be eating to obtain my goal according to Andrew's timeline.  Should be quite interesting to see what she has in store for me and how I am going to consume the amount of food I am expecting.  Maybe it won't be as bad as I have in mind.  I am sure that there will be protein shakes in my future.  I just hope I can find one that isn't dairy based and that doesn't cost me a fortune as I am already paying quite a bit for the sessions.  I will post the results of my nutrition session after I have it.
