I could do better with my rests but I feel really bored just sitting between sets. I’ve been getting good amounts of protein in my diet, but I’m not always sticking to livefit guidelines. I can’t resist ice cream every once and awhile!

I am so sore post workout. Does anyone have suggestions to make muscle soreness go away faster? I also interviewed at my school’s pool and got a job as a cashier! I’m excited for this job because it’s on campus and they really work with my school schedule.

I went to GNC to ask about protein powders and they gave me a sample of Amplify. I’m drinking the strawberry right now, but I don’t really like the taste. I also ordered some perfect fit protein powder last night but it won’t be in until around the 25th. Does anyone have any good suggestions for protein powder?

starting livefit today and i’m getting ready for my first workout.
