2/1 - Day One of the Paleo Challenge

The goal that I have decided on for myself for the Paleo Challenge is to get leaner. I want to be able to 6 dead hang pullups in a row instead of the three in a row that I currently can do. Since I do not want to lose even an ounce of muscle, I'm going to set a reasonable and realistic goal of trimming down from 194lbs to 182lbs. I think that this goal is realistic but will still be challenging enough so that I will have to eat a very clean paleo diet with only a few minor cheat meals.

We are also putting our cats on a paleo diet, as they have some extra pounds to lose. We purchased a high protein / low carb cat food yesterday that is as close to a natural meat diet as you can get w/out giving them actual meat. So we will see what they look like in a couple of months!

5 AM - Banana
8 AM - 4 Scrambled eggs
8AM - Coffee with cream
10AM - Raspberries, blueberries, blackberries
Noon - Avgolemono soup (eggs, chicken, chicken stock, lemons)
2PM - raspberries, blueberries, blackberries
2PM - walnuts
6PM - salmon & broccoli
7PM - broccoli, cauliflower, & carrots

Saturday 12/12

"Hansen"

5 Rounds:

30 KBS (20kg)
30 Burpees
30 GHD Sit ups

Time of 59:18

I've got to be honest, this was one of the hardest, most brutal wod's I have ever done. It seemed as if the punishment would never end. I would rank it in the top five for most ass-kicking Crossfit wods of all time. It was as much of a mental test as it was physical, and I am proud to say that I endured and finished it in under an hour.

Thursday 12/3

5 Rounds:

10 Push press @ 95lb
10 Pullups (small band)

Time of 12:55

I got to try out Crossfit Malicious last night and do this WOD with them. I'm still trying to ease back into Crossfit after taking a long vacation last week, I think I went more than 10 days without a WOD. I got to do two WODs this week and try out two different Crossfits in Tampa, and let me tell you neither one was half as good as Crossfit Fort Myers. Anyway, we are still trying to find a good Crossfit that will work for us up in Tampa and one that is close to where we are living, hopefully a good Crossfit will open up soon in the area. If not, I think we are going to have start our own Crossfit in our garage.
