Day 8 of 21

Winners Don't Quit. Quitters Don't Win.


Set the 7am alarm to get some additional rest. Couldn't drag myself out of bed until 7.15. I wanted to get a sense of what I'd be able to pull through today. Crossfit was out of question, Strength training was out, so maybe some cardio. Now although I've been resting for 2 days, the body hasn't recovered fully. Have a mild fever too. Some people advise against working out, doctors don't have a fixed opinion. I like the crossfit lifestyle...when in doubt, just push through. And so I did. Picked up a less intense Insanity workout - Cardio power and resistance and decided to DIG DEEPER!

The workout
Cardio power and resistance is a part cardio, part resistance workout, all wrapped up in intervals. So you'll be jumping one minute and then doing moving pushups, followed by squats and then tricep dips. Its a manageable 45 minutes, but guaranteed to make you sweat and bust your chops. What a way to start the week :-)


Food
7.15 - banana
8.45 - 2scoops whey with water
9.15 - 1 wheat bread with 2 scoops cottage cheese and some fruit preserve
11.30 - left over veggies with small portion of pasta.
2.00 pm - 1 pear
4:30 - 2 scoop whey
7.45pm - spinach salad with pesto chicken
10.30pm - 1 scoop casein
