Whole30: Day 23

From June 1 through June 30, I'm participating in the Whole30 clean-up/change your life/heal thyself plan. (Here's why.)


Training
Triumph! Two workout days back-to-back. This is Big because I haven't done that in weeks.
5X5 OH press
(Mildly lame 'cause I only had 20# dumbbells which were too light, but whatever. My shoulders felt it.)

3 rounds, for time:
400m run
30 box jump 20" box
30 wall ball, 10# ball
My time: 17:39
That WOD was RX'd as five (!!!) rounds with a 20 minute cut-off. Three was plenty, and I tried to keep moving-moving-moving to get the desired intensity effect. I was definitely feeling the 88% humidity. Every breath hurt. (Between us friends, I seriously considered walking during the last 200m, but I didn't. The only reason I didn't is that I knew I'd have to tell you if I did. Pride, man.)

Food
Great food day yesterday. In no particular order, I enjoyed sweet potatoes and eggs, smoked salmon, cucumbers, green pepper strips, black olives, jicama, coconut-almond green beans, ground lamb sautéed with fresh tomatoes and cumin, a few almonds, and frozen blueberries.

Sleep
8 hours. Solid. Woke up before the alarm and had time to read before my workout. Nice way to start the day.

Thinkin' you want to take better care of yourself? Here are some guidelines you might find helpful.
