Already seeing the benefit of the blog and recording what I’m eating. Can see that even though I wanted to go without dairy I’ve still had two serves in the last two days. Also need to stick to one cup of coffee a day, the second one didn’t make me feel good. Trying to minimize fruit however killed two mangoes and some papaya. Also hard to pass up the nuts.
Exercise
Olympic lifting skill day.
Front Squat, Hang Clean and Hang Squat Clean.
Good session, realising how much I need to engage the lats and upper back. Also focus on straight arms.
*Coach commented that this week would be mostly lifting and skill work, maybe one metcon in there somewhere. This is perfect timing as it’s my 7th week and a perfect time to have an ‘easy’ week. Excellent programming.
