Frump a lump
Yesterday I was pretty busy and felt kinda sick at night so I didn't have time to blog. And today was a very frustrating and emotional day. So needless to say it's been a not-so-great couple days. In need of a pick me up for sure. Anyway, when I got home today I wanted to eat like all the sweets in the world to deal with my emotions, but instead I did some retail therapy. I got a shirt, a pull over fleece and a pair of jeans all for $17. Yes, you can call me the bargain queen! When I got home though, I ate a chocolate chip cookie, but it wasn't too good, so I decided I needed to make some of Trish's paleo cookies to cure my sweet tooth. Today is rest day and my new rituals are an Epsom salt bath, mobility drills, and bed earlier. The bath really helped me relax and calm me down from the day and the mobility I was focusing on my left IT band again, that really needs to get better! And after I'm done with this it's off to bed.
Yesterday's food: Breakfast: 10 oz chili. Lunch: 5 oz chicken 4 oz spaghetti squash 2 oz mixed veggies. Dinner: 10 oz chili and some trail mix.
Today's food: Breakfast: 3 eggs and 3 meatballs. Lunch: 10 oz chili and 3 oz baby carrots. choc chip cookie. Dinner: salad, a bunch of turkey breast and some spaghetti squash. 3 paleo cookies
Yesterday's Strength: Dead lift 5(75%)-3(85)-1+(95) training max 99kg. 5@75kg - 3@84kg - 4@94kg. The last rep on the last set was pretty tough and not so pretty, but got it. My previous single rep max was 92kg so I'm already passed that on my last set. I did some online calculation to estimate what my new one rep max would be and it says it should be around 103kg. Can't wait to see what it is!!
WOD: 3 rounds for time of: 7 pull ups (purple band) 14 burpees 21 situps. 5:58 I was pretty excited about this wod. I've been debating about doing unassisted pullups in a wod again, but decided to go with the purple band because my shoulder hasn't been in the best condition. So I don't want to completely wreck it with the crazy range of motion on unassisted pullups. Anyway I was shooting to beat 6 minutes and I did just that by 2 seconds. overall I was happy with my performance and Louis was too, he's starting to feel his 6 other ab friends come through. :)
Time to sleep and put this day to rest. night friends!
