Monday 1-28-13

Going to start posting again for awhile. Need to hold myself more accountable to what I am putting in my body.

 

Did 4 tabata sets this morning with my husband. Didn't put 100% into them. Knew that I would be doing another workout later and wanted to have my energy for that.

-Jumprope

-H2H swings with 26

TRAINING/NUTRITION BLOG: 01/26/13. REST DAY

TRAINING: 

No training today, except to lead a few class warmups and a little bit of play with Indian clubs. 

I am just feeling a little tired and tight, so I figured I would just let myself be lazy for a day. I might actually take tomorrow totally off too. Two days in a row? Hasn't happened in a while. We'll see. I do have my weekly hill sprints. That may depend on the weather. I have my eye on a horrible theater for some Tabata hill sprints in the snow. It is a few…

TRAINING/NUTRITION BLOG: 01/13/13 - More Intermittent Fasting and Short, Hard Workouts.

Not sure what fasting for 18-24hrs 4 times in the past week week did, but it seems that I have had some kind of shift in my appetite and now 24hrs is nothing without eating. I'm sure this will change if I get into some kind of calorie deficit, but for now it is kind of an interesting experiment. I feel fine and have plenty of energy. Not going to force myself to eat.
