Its been a while... but things are good.

Well the open WODs are done! Thank you Baby Jesus! I am seriously done with all that. I am ready for me... me me me. I just want to do things that make me happy. Whats that? Who knows, but it begins with training the way I want. I have finally figured out what i would like to do when my 1 week of off training will be.

Starting the 2nd week of May I am doing the 5/3/1 program. I have decided to do the boring but big templete, which is 2 days of strength. I am adding the rest to what I want to do. I really do feel that I can be STRONG and do met-con wods.

Monday: SWOD Squat, Bench, Power cleans
Tuesday: Crossfit WOD
Wednesday: Skils/CFE/Rest
Thursday: Deadlifts, Presses
Fridays: Crossfit WOD
Saturday: Skills/CFE
Sunday: Rest

Every 3rd week will be my long CFE, and the Crossfit WODs will be under 15 mins. As the my training cycles continue I'll probably back off a little bit with the CFE and DWODs and just focus on strength... but we'll see. I dont want to get bigger like I did in Starting Strength. I know I need mass to get my numbers up, but I'm just not willing to sacrifice my weight right now.... I'm still vain on my looks... oh well.

Memorial is the sectionals! So excited to go again this year! It will be a blast to watch someone again compete! My beer and I will be just fine cheering away ;)

post-cruise..

Gotta say I had a pretty good time! Ate pretty well, not that as bad as I thought. It was more yesterday was my bad day. Fasted from Sunday 1 pm, till 1 pm Monday. Then bad I know...Steak and shake, guac burger with a salad and then a cookies and cream shake. Ok and dinner... my best friend had pizza on Friday night so I had 2 slices of that... Then that was pretty much it.

Cruisin'

Well I leave tonight for Ft Lauderdale for my mini weekend cruise. Pretty happy to get out of this city. I am just not in a good place right now. I am so pissed at people, me, pretty much everything. Sad, Yah i know but you know what its me. I really want to change, and I have always wanted too but just never had the strength and courage to do so... oh well, enough bitching.

Did 4 sets of suicide sprints this morning.... total distance for the set of sprints was .31 miles.
2:30
2:31
2:31
2:31

Killer especially with the humidity. But I am really happy I did it. I needed to get out some frustration. Which sucks cause I still have it.

Tomorrow morning may be another longer distance run or I may end up going to Crossfit Ft Lauderdale in the morning... but damn $25 for a drop in... really? Oh well. Maybe I'll make up my own WOD and do it at the hotel gym.


Fasting right now till either tonight or till Friday morning. I have told myself that I am going to only protein on Monday. Hopefully last for 3-4 days or at least till ketosis... I'm need to lean out... I am muscular which is fine but I still have fat that needs to take a hike.

well enough bitchin'

You have to find out what's right for you, so it's trial and error. 

You are going to be all right if you accept realistic goals for yourself.

WOD 2

Well I go to my cruise this weekend and the gym is closed to tomorrow... which I hear it really isn't, but anyways. So I decided that the only thing I can do is just finish it up this morning and maybe if someone is nice enough they will come to the box and let me try again Sunday... who knows.

15 min AMRAP
9 deadlifts @ 100#
12 hand release pushups
15 box jumps @ 20'

8 rounds and 6 deadlifts

my goal was 7... but I always wish I went more... was really hoping double digits but man the hand release push ups sucked... actually lost a few reps, thanks Brian.

Tuesday..... Almost Cruise time

Well didn't make it through my whole fast. Went to Publix and bought some fresh veggies and my fruit juice for my shakes. I decided that for lunch today would be steak stir fry, and while doing that I was just teasing myself so I had 3 eggs, some peppers, and snap peas. Not bad...till I ate the rest of my paleo cookies. Just couldn't resist.

Did a 3.5 mile run this morning, 33 mins. I just have lost my endurance. I need to get my ass in gear. I really need to get into the CFEs again. No less than 3 a week.  Hoping that this happens after the cruise...

Starting Thursday night to Sunday morning will be crazy drinking and food... my last who-rah

A little behind..

Ok, so ask me how my food has been??? Couldn't really type out what I have had.  I have been watching things closely but not really writing anything down.... Saturday was our St Pete competition and it was a blast. Sassy did amazing as well as Linds. Me.. eh I wasn't last :) oh well..

I so remember fast on Thursday night-Friday afternoon.... Thursday last week was cheeseburger in paradise a guac burger with sweet pot chips and a margarita :) and then a little putt putt. After all that excitement was love boat ice cream... gator tracks, delish.

I have been staying away from sweet, but just sticking with high percentage chocolate  and AB.  ok ok and my Justin's chocolate hazelnut butter.

Saturday I really didn't eat. I just cant when i am going to workout... I just know I will puke it up. But I did have coconut water and then met up with someone for lunch. We decided to go to a german resturtant  and yes... I had bread. Pepper nickel break with turkey, roast beef, and garlic cream cheese.. OMG it was soo good.  Then had a good oktoberfest beer. My treat on the way home was a baskin robin milkshake... I left my wallet there, so I think that was a sign NOT to have it... but too late

Sunday was a relax beach day with a friend. Got pretty much fried.... very very fried. I am hurting, double whammy of workout soreness and sunburnt... No Bueno...

Food had eggs and a pepper in the morning. Made paleo cookies had a few of those. Had made my known concoction for my adult beverage for the beach: whip cream vodka, coconut water, and frozen strawberries... Pretty darn good. Then went to Jason's deli for a salad and some chocolate mousse/banana pudding.

Fasting today. I feel bloated so I decided that I would fast as long as i could. I did have 3 eggs this morning and 2 paleo cookies. So my goal is to fast till tomorrow morning. If I don't make it...oh well...

I'll get back to the posting hopefully this week... if not after the cruise... :) we'll see
