    Tuesday 7th April Decided to take a rest today, and it went well. Had my least amount of calories since starting this log and the rest was probably good for my back (and to an extent biceps). My school cross country is coming up (5th May) and I want to compete for a variety of reasons. 1...

    Monday 6th April 2009 Decent day today. Set PR's on deadlifts, bent over rows and bicep curls (and started on upright rows). Didn't do cardio, because I had a headache, had a couple of tablets before the workout, and really didn't feel the best. Still lacking protein in my diet, not sure...

    Is it time to sack dave hussey

    He is a test quality player, but at the moment there isn't a position in the team, but soon I reckon his brother might make way for him. He is also a good limited over player, look at a couple of his good knocks and his tour of the West Indies last year and you will see that. He hasn't quite...

    Nope not yet, but I am going to be starting up doing actual cricket training soonish (soonish meaning closer to the season). First working on my general fitness. Good shiz, weight watchers ones. :laugh:

    Sunday 5th April 2009 Decent day food wise, didn't want to do my workout (circuits) but did it, and hurt my leg doing bodyweight squats, on the inner part of my thigh, which I hurt last week as well. Hopefully it will clear up before tomorrow (deadlifts, should be ok) and Wednesday (leg day)...

    *Archived* Whatever you like....

    So I was looking at dropping Swann from my team. Little wickets, decent economy and pretty poor average. My allround spin bowler (Patel) was doing a better job, and was looking at just using him with 4 quicks. Then this happens:

    Twenty20 World Cup predictions

    May as well... I reckon the Netherlands will go pretty good, giving big teams a run for their money.

    Saturday 4th April 2009 Terrible, terrible day. Crazily bad diet, chips, cake, coke etc, and the only exercise was a bit of ice skating. I am really going to have to eat under my calorie limit tomorrow, and exercise like mad to burn off the deficit. Got my protein shakes today, probably going...

    Going out ice skating today, been eating **** so far, then going out tonight and eating a 3 course meal with a drink. Will be 3000-4000 calories for the day. I am also getting some protein powder today as well.

    Friday 3rd April 2009 Been a good day. Set PR's on shoulder and bench press, and was around 200 calories under a 2000 limit. Was looking at a few calorie counters to maintain a 60kg weight, one suggested 2400 and the other 1800. :S I will stick with the 2000 for the moment, see how that works...

    Thursday 2nd April 2009 Good day today. Ate well (in regards to calories, haven't had dinner yet though) and did a 30 minute bodyweight circuits workout. Looking at having eggs for dinner for that extra protein.

    Did the workout, went for 51 minutes. Hopefully it made up for my cake and going over 2000 calories (I am cutting weight as well as gaining muscle, so a low calorie intake is best).

    Tuesday 31st Mar 2009 Worst day today. We get to leave school at the start of 4th period to go home because the road is flooding. We go, and the bus isn't there. So we have to go back to school, and come back later. We get there, and luckily I go home with my mum. The backyard is like a pool...

    Monday 30th Mar 2009 First workout today, will not say they are PR's, although most of them (not bicep curls) are. I started off light for my first week, and I had a really poor technique on my barbell rows. Weight (in kilos) comes before repititions, obviously. Monday - Back and biceps...
