Training Log: Entry 2473

AM WORKOUT (0610 natural wake up, slightly better night of sleep, most likely issues being too lean) FASTED

23 ABCs w/24kg bells in 5 minutes

straight into

15 minutes of an abbreviated Dan John 10k swing challenge workout

* 3 burpee chins

* 10 swings w/24kg bell

* 3 BCs

* 15 swings

* 3 BCs

* 25 swings

* 3 BCs

* 50 swings

Got through 3 rounds of that.  

I still have an itch to run the 10k challenge alongside one of these programs, just to say I did.  This was a good proof of concept.  15 minutes for 300 swings, so 5 minutes per 100 with some daily work movement done in between.  I could slot it in as my conditioning work at the end of a workout.  Only issue I face is that it's a bit too formulaic and would rob me of the chaos that my conditioning tends to thrive on, but still good to know it's there as an option.

Here is what I did for this afternoon's training

15x225 Front squats

20x225 Squats

25x225 SSB Squats

30x225 Deadlifts

That 15th front squat was high, but keeping the bar was the goal so I could rock on for the rest of the workout.  I have NEVER wanted to quit a workout as bad as I did while hitting those SSB squats.  Overcoming that was a HUGE victory.  

Later, I did some meal prep

Combination of sugar free terryaki chicken tenderloins and thighs, riced cauilflower and broccoli stir fry, and 95% lean grassfed ground beef/piedmontese grassfed beef liver chorizo.

And my evening meal

1 whole pasture raised egg, 2 whites, 1 oz of the chorizo, 1 oz of chicken, 50g of avocado, 1/4 cup of grassfed cottage cheese, mushrooms, onions, jalapenos, tomatoes, horseradish, chipotle tabasco and La Victoria taco sauce, 4 celery stalks with Nuts n More peanut/almond butter spread, 1 carb slice of bread with natural peanut butter and a 7 nut butter with sugar free jelly and an egg white wrap.

Folks, this is what training, eating and living like a champ looks like.
