I was really sore and tired after yesterdays run ... didnt have the energy to workout

I didnt realize how far I was running but didnt want to give up ... then due to circumstances beyond my control i needed to walk another 4 miles during the day ...

My calfs hurt hopefully just a burn.

OK so I started doing something new. I do the elliptical for 20 minutes every day but at 4,8,12,16 and 20 minutes I do 10 push-ups then jump right back onto the elliptical machine. It really ups the heart rate and gives a good burn. Today I did that as well as 2 types of shoulder presses and 2 triceps exercises.

OK today I did chest, triceps and elliptical. I felt a little weak on bench, however it may be because I am switching up my workout to add more reps of heavy weight in my bench.

Before I started I took a bottle of 5 hour energy to see how I would do.

I started with my normal bench routine:

4x 115
4x 135
4x 225
4x 275 ( usually i only do this twice during warm-ups )
4x 315 ( usually I only do this once during warm-ups ...

I started back on Creatine today. Also started using PM protein last night.

so basically before workout I use nitric oxide ( no-explode ) post workout I use pro-nos whey protein ... in the AM and at night I use GNC PM protein.

Also during the day I am taking 1 tsp of creatine in a glass of orange juice ( fructose is needed for the creatine to work )

Plus I take one packet of animial pak vitamins.

I find that I am getting dehydrated ...
