8am-

caffeine and coconut oil

330pm-

Bunch of BBQ beef brisket and pulled pork with a cucumber and vinegar salad. BBQ is one of the only places my wife and I can actually eat out and stick to a decent diet. As long as you stay away from the sugary sauces, it isn't a problem. Our favorite place is Mickey Ray's in…

NUTRITION:

Still, looks like I'm not eating enough. Note random lunch. I didn't want to put it off any longer and didn't have anything thawed at home for a good and fast protein source. The "best worst option" here was the lowest sugar jerky I could find. (Yes, this brand of brown sugar jerky was the lowest they had)…

BOTH REST DAYS

NUTRITION:

In Montana for a wedding. Saturday I went to the Little Bighorn Battlefield and toured the area and then had a wedding in the late afternoon.

I had some MCT oil capsules early and then some jerky around 1:30pm.

I'd hoped for some kind of snacks or something at the wedding reception, but there was really nothing but junk, like sugary BBQ pork, pasta, and bread. There wasn't even a salad or a single…

Sunday

This weekend has been a bit chaotic.  I have been helping my mom clean out my grandparent's house and it has been a huge job.  I tried to eat well but just grabbed what I could when I had a moment.  I didn't really have time to even sit down and do the food diary.  One bonus was I got in about 8,000 steps yesterday doing the work.…

TRAINING/NUTRITION BLOG 6/12/15

Rest day today.



Drove to Montana. People eat when they drive or take car trips because they are bord, not hungry.



I prefer to mostly fast when I travel, but in the case of Montana trips I like to take advantage of wild game meat and local buffalo snacks, because you can find it at lots of stops. I ended up eating about a 1/2lb of elk sausage at about 3pm and a 1/2lb of cured buffalo meat at 8pm. I also drank 2 zero carb Monster drinks.



At a spinach and shrimp… Continue
