Final Training day in US

I went to the gym last Monday (the 6th) for the last time in the US.  Of course I still have my membership because its just too cheap to cancel.  I decided to make this final workout a full body workout because of the timing and what I have done prior to that day.

The numbers and reps are here (as best as I can recall...)

Deadlifts --------------------------------------------- 185 for 10
Push press ------------------------------------------ 95 for 10
Squats ------------------------------------------------ 315 for 8
Weighted pull-ups (wide grip)-------------------- 25 for 5, 5, 5
Weighted dips -------------------------------------- 90 for 4, 5
Standing calves ------------------------------------ 200 for 8

I am now in Japan and will live in a place pretty close to a gym.  It appears that this one does have weights (I hope to hell they do, because most gyms have machines only which is not....cool).  It building looks super big and the yoga rooms was visible along with another room I couldn't recall so hopefully that is a good sign.

Well, as a fitness enthusiasts (borderline bodybuilder perhaps), I still try to maintain the macronutrient intake even now, and it's been interesting at times.  I've been drinking several (usually around 5 or to 7 with 3-4 yolks) along with my breakfast every morning and before I sleep to maintain my protein intake high in the morning and night.  I then take several cans of tuna with me and eat about 2 with some bread of nuts during the day (after lunch) and then again maybe for dinner (unless I buy something or go to a restaurant).

So for egg price, I've been buying eggs at a price of 208 yen for 10 eggs, which isn't all too bad.  For canned tuna (130 g cans), the lowest price I've managed to pay is about 100 yen per can.  This is pretty much the same as America thankfully, so protein won't make my wallet too small, luckily.

Hopefully I will be able to get back to my training regimen soon.

Time to sleep.  Time zone is still different in my body.
