So I posted this yesterday, and decided it was time to figure out what the hell I want. Well, simply put- I want it all and I'm willing to work for it
So what do I mean? I mean I want to be a badass crossfit athlete, I want to get on a stage and compete in a Figure competition, I want to do a triathalon, and I want to accomplish all of this while keeping my career and eventually finding love. Is that too much to ask?
Better yet, how on earth would I do all of that? Her name is Ashley Horner and she is a goddess- yes, girl CRUSH major.
www.Ashleyhorner.co is where you need to go!
She just did an Ironman... and she's a figure competitor- she's... my hero.
SO, I signed up and downloaded the "Magnifying YOU" program, I'm a little past the "Becoming Extraoridnary"- which incorporates a lot of CF type work and a lot more cardio- I'm jumping right into her program. It's a digital download- and I'm printing it off in "phase" stages- so I start Phase 1 today. It has workouts, but it also has menu ideas to optimize- which was part of my dilemma explained in the video above. So, this morning I tried it out.
Clearly- not whole30 approved, but whole9 in a way! It's mostly about clean eating, but I am making swaps since I'm still not doing dairy or grains besides the oatmeal- I love oatmeal.
I had steel cut oats with blueberries, 1 egg white with 2 (cooked) oz of pulled pork and an entire green pepper. Her suggestion was 5 egg whites with a GP... I don't like eggs that much- so I looked it up in my ZONE guidelines, 2 egg whites= 1 protein block, so I just swapped the eggs for pulled pork. So far, so good. I'm fuller than I normally am at this point in the morning. I will try out this beast of a circuit- I'm playing hookie today.
I have 5 dogs in my house, who I honestly feel guilty about kenneling ALL day and then come home to for 2 hours, and then KENNEL again for 3 hours so that we can eat dinner and all go to bed. I know... I know... they're dogs. But, the one just had surgery and I just- don't feel good about doing it. So, this morning I stayed in and had my breakfast, I will take my time to get adjusted to this new workout routine, I'll get the pedicure I've been dying for the last 2 days and get my nails shortened for this weekend... and I'll lock them up for a few hours and then come home and save them, and then when I go to CF tonight I won't feel as bad- they're building stamina. But tomorrow we have a field trip- so I cannot save them. They will be locked up from 7:30-3:45 (at the earliest)... and then I will come home and save them really quickly and I have a tattoo appointment at 5:00pm, and then off to CF... and then I'll be home- this will be the BIG test of the week. Then it's smooth sailing. I'll check in after snack 1 and lunch with pictures, and I'll take some "DAY 1" photos to track progress.
*stay fit*
