I recently discovered plyometrics, particularly squats. I like them so far. Did 3 sets of 6 reps yesterday. I love the tension and resistance I feel in my muscles around the 6th or 7th rep. I know in a month or so I’ll do 15 each set, easily. Let the fun begin.

Check it out, yo:

Ran 7 miles yesterday and weights.
I tried the ‘captain’s chair’ for the first time yesterday and was really excited about that. I don’t know if I should do it in booty shorts again, though I think some of the regulars wouldn’t mind. (Sweatdrop)

Gonna shoot for 10 mi. Later today for the hell of it and another go at the captain’s chair.

Over and out.

(Surprise ninja tackle hugs!) <(°¬°< )*

I like it Raw.

Not pictured: Bag of wf ginger snaps I’ve been nursing for a few days. Working on a self-intervention at the gym now. Need to tame the sugar before it tames me. That means avoid alcohol by any means necessary!

Over and out.

Taking time for breakfast never tasted so good

The icing on the cake to my overnight shift. Heart of palm, spinach, mushrooms, summer squash, bell peppers, egg whites, artichokes. I love life. P.s. Saturday was 9 miles plus weights Sunday was 10 miles plus weights. Today after breakfast I will go for a mindblowing run, weights; then follow up on paperwork. Happy Veterans’ Day.

 

 

Over and out.

彡彡Let’s get to it, put your back into it.彡彡彡 The power of delayed gratification compels you.

1/2 synergy black chai

pistachios

blueberries

blackberries

white albacore low sodium tuna + veganaise + 1/2 avocado  with nut chips

2 servings of carrot cake ice cream

6 samples of energy chunk squares in bulk. (carob, chia, mixed berry, cacao)

water

—-

about to get some bhakti on.

And that’s all I can remember.

Need to get my ass in gear for running tonight.

Over and out.

One part ginger juice, one part chai. Refreshing as hell and spicy too.

Raspberries are always the first to go.

And you know I killed the last of the strawberries.

Simple Breakfast. Eating soy again makes me a bad girl.

Steamed kale, tomato, sesame, soy chicken. (Not pictured: vegan chipotle ranch and cran water.)

Eating the soy chicken out of convenience. Would like to limit the soy intake to 1 x per week, need to reduce as many phytohormones as possible.

Next up: raspberries.

Movement:

5 miles in 50:34 minutes. 5.6 mph average.

1 mile on climber. level 4

1 mile on elliptical, 7 incline, 5 resistance

100+ free weights reps, 20 rep sets. 2 x 15lbs= 30lbs total.

Hip Abduction: 3 sets, 40 reps each, 30 lbs

Leg Machine: 3 sets, 20 reps each, 80 lbs

 

 

 

Reflect: I wanted to put in a few more miles, but I was short on time. I’ll make up for it later today. 

 

 

 

Also noted: I was going to register for the NYC marathon, but that fell through for several reasons.

1. It is one of the highly sought-after marathons in the country. (Did not know that until yesterday. But it makes sense.)

2. There is a lottery to get into the marathon.

-So that means, not only do you have to create an account to register for it, but you have to wait for fate to favor you in order to be chosen.

….first time I’ve ever experienced that when registering for a race.

3. My habit of doing things last minute finally bit me on the ass. Sall good, lesson learned!

 

 

Now that I am aware of the obstacles of getting in the race, it only makes me more determined and steadfast to get to it. ‘It’ being the NYC marathon.

The more challenging something is, the more savory the victory. Mmm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Plan a goal. A goal so big and so great; that if you were to accomplish it, it would blow your f********* mind.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

Moving forward, Next!

Warrior Dash and Tough Mudder are obstacle courses in mud I’m interested in doing. In conclusion: I need a job —because those activities are not free. T_T

The theme of this year life is ‘endurance’.
