Condition Kettlebell Gym

Friday 7/31

VARIETY DAY: worked on joint mobility.  Ordered a bag of white and a bag of green nails to do some bending on variety days in the future.

FOOD:  I am allowing myself to take one afternoon a week off and not have a structured feast.  At 3:30PM I ate at my favorite restaurant, Shorty’s - best pizza ever. Don’t want to talk about  it today, though.

SATURDAY 8/1

HEAVY DAY

3 x (3,2,1) with 2 16kg’s

5 squats with 2 16kg’s after each ladder

2×5 deadlifts with 2 40kg’s

UNDEREATING:

2 cups coffee w/milk

unpasteurized beet, apple, carrot, parsley juice

2 cheese curds

young coconut juice

FEAST: early today 2:15PM

Went to a Mexican restaurant that I have been to a few times before.  I never noticed how gross and processed their food was until today.

Salsa - obviously out of a can

2 black bean tomales - I am counting masa for the carbs

plantains with peanut butter - definitely not natural pb

a few bites of hummus, cannelini bean paste, and lentil salad that I had in the fridge a couple of hours later.

wine at a party later that night

Where I went wrong: the feasting foods werent optimal and I drank the wine after the 4 hour window

Wednesday 7/29

OFF Training Day

Undereating:
coffee w/milk

Ginger Jive unpasteurized juice

coffee w/cream

Feast 3:40PM:

carrot/apple/celery juice

brussel sprouts

antipasto salad (grape tomato, farro grain, feta cheese, olives, olive oil, parsley, garlic, thyme, lemon juice, salt, pepper)

cannelini bean dip (cannelini beans, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, sage)

lentil salad (lentils, oranges, currants, shollots, parsley, grapeseed oil, lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, pepper, salt)

hummus

Where I went wrong: Again, put cream in coffee bc the coffee shop (a different one!) only had cream.  I go to a good number of coffee meetings to network so maybe I should consider bringing my own milk! Also, the first week of Warrior for Fat Loss is supposed to be wheat free.  I got “Farro Grain Salad” at the Farmer’s Market and was eating it while Googling it and found out it is a wheat grain.

Notes: I ate very early today bc I was starving. I also ate WAY too much, in my opinion. I think it’s because I drank fruit juice in the morning.  The last time I was on Warrior I noticed that on the days I ate fruit or fruit juice before noon, I was hungry all day.   I ate 3 times in the 4 hour window that WD allows but I ate ALOT.  It also may be because I got all these cool salads and mixes from the farmer’s market and wanted to taste it all.

Thursday 7/30

MEDIUM DAY

3 x (1,2,3) 12+16kg presses

5 squats between each ladder

2×20 deadlifts 12+16kg

I am still not sure whether I want to DL beasts and bulldogs for low reps or follow the RTK rules and use the same bells for the presses for 2×20.  I had a hard time concentrating for 20 reps of a grind so I am leaning towards 2 sets of 5 with the heavy bells.  Suggestions?

Undereating:

logan fruit

2  cheese curds

32 oz Arden’s Garden Detox Juice (grapefruit, lemon, orange juice) banana

miso soup

coffee w/milk

Feast:

Salad in a Glass (beet, carrot, parsley juice)

roasted brussel sprouts

rice pilaf/jasmine rice/cannelini bean dip/hummus/red lentils w/onions

lentil salad for “dessert” - the fruit in it makes it sweet.

some vino - the wine rep was at the restaurant where I work on Saturday nights and I had stopped in.  He had us tasting some of the new wines he had in.
