Tuesday 9th October 2012

Been very slack on the blogging front of late. Have written everything down in my phone but not had a good chance to get everything written up on here. As Nick Butters kindly pointed out this afternoon it would've been much easier to download an app and write everything straight onto my blog on my phone - never thought of that! Ideally would like to write everything up every evening but that eats into my sleep time and the fact I'm trying to keep electronics off just before bed. Got to prioritise these things :)

Sleep = 7.5 hours

Think I'll be getting black marks every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday for lack of sleep as I have to be up at 6am and struggle to get to bed by 10pm.

Breakfast

3 Egg Muffins
Apple
10g BCAAs

Apple
400ml FF Milk

WOD with Niki from Outlaw - Run 1 mile then 30 Muscle Ups.
Did the mile in 6.40, had a stroll to the rings, chalked up and got on the rings at 7.20. Finished in 12.08. Was hoping for sub 12. Muscle ups didn't feel as good as they have at other times recently (run must've taken its toll!) but pretty pleased all the same. Was great having Niki right in front of me. Seemed like she was doing hers faster than me which made me get back in the rings quicker.

Banana
Recovery shake

Knew I'd be staying at the gym all afternoon so was very organised and brought food in to eat. Hadn't planned on the leftover Thai chicken broth being disgusting when eaten cold. Ate the chicken and left the soggy veggies and sauce. Settled for 200g ham, 500g grapes and an apple.

17.00
More training - this time it was today's Outlaw WOD with Sazzle and Simpson.
3 rounds of Row 500m/75 Double Unders
9.42
Did all the rows at 1.50 and only missed 1 double under. Did stop once in each of the second and third rounds to let arms recover though. Could've pushed a little harder on the rows in hindsight.

Recovery shake

Handful of nuts and currants
