    Happy Sunday, all!

    What a washout of a weekend. Been raining since late Saturday morning. Talk about taking care of our drought problem quickly! No serious flooding, though, so that's good.

    Cardio: 8 mile run, easy pace. Glad I got my treadmill when I did, since this was the second day in a row of doing a long run on it.


    Food: on target.

    What I've been up to the past 4 days. Backpacked solo 88 miles, 28,000 ft elevation gain. Super back country Sierra Nevadas. Slept on rock ledges and followed bear tracks over snow covered passes. Also did a few push-ups to keep warm and a bit of scrambling. Now I'm eating some pancakes because my stomache looks concave.

    Not my best workout ever but I got it done. Couldn't get a bench for bench press (so crowded this morning) and since I upped my weights on squat and bent over row I couldn't quite complete the sets. That's okay though the rest of my workout was fine.

    Today: 25 min calisthenics warmup including BW squats and lunges, pushups, planks, renegade rows, good mornings, physio ball pikes and bridges, hanging leg lifts, crunch machine and stair master. 60 min weight lifting including Strong Lifts <Squats 2X6 w/65 lbs (warmup) and 4X5 w/120 lbs, bent over row 3X5 w/85 lbs>, 2X 10 landmine press w/55 lbs, 3X 10 seated dip w/120 lbs added, 3X10 incline single arm bench press w/25 lbs, 3X12 single leg bridges w/30 lbs, 2X 16 side lunges w/22.5/22/5 lbs dumbbells, 3X 80 farmer's toe walk w/25/25 lb dumbbells and 3X 10 inner thigh w/110. 10 min rowing machine level 10/32 spm.

    We ate out last night so I'm eating a bit light today.........I always want to do that but I don't really know if it's even necessary.

    Hope you're all having a great week.........yesterday was just a rest day for me!

    Back to the grind. Boxing conditioning class. First time I've done boxing or any HITT in about two weeks since I was trying to get over my cold before my backpacking trip (turns out I now have pneumonia). I was getting gassed more than normal, but overall cardio performance was not as bad as expected and strength was as good as ever. I'm actually a little freaked out that I'm not weak and run down or even a little sore after such a crazy hike.

    Yesterday was a rest and refuel day. Hit carbs heavy and felt 100% normal today. Today I was a little higher on my carb macros, but still within reason. A few hundred over on calories, but I racked up such a massive deficit during my trip, that eating over seems pretty reasonable for a few days. Craving fat, which is strange for me. I might up everything next week, as I think I'm getting pretty close to where I want to be with my bf%.

    HHD everyone!

    Today I took the dog out and we got our 3.67 miles in. Mostly walk because I took the hilly route to the park but I think I still ran, or I should probably say jogged, about 1.5 miles. Burned some calories and got the cardio in.

    Eating slightly over 1700 today with cheese at almost every meal...........yummmm!

    Sparring. Need to tighten up defense and get speed back up. Followed up with abs, push-ups and a few pull-ups. Man, pull-ups were hard after sparring. Gassed out :P

    Food: a little high on cals and low on protein. I've been a little slack on my diet the past few days. Need to get back on it!

    Happy Wednesday!

    Don't say "jog". Running is running, no matter your pace. I mean, I'm slow by a lot of standards, but I don't "jog" (yes, I hate the word "jog", lol). Neither do you. :)


    Wednesday!!

    Strength training:

    Bench Press: 5x5x75lb
    OHP: 5x5x52.5lb
    Pendlay Row: 5x5x75lb
    Good Mornings: 5x5x25lb
    Push ups: 1x5 (more for warm-up than anything)


    Food: on target.

    To add on, as someone chronically low on iron, for any iron-rich veggies you eat, pair it with citrus. Vitamin C helps iron absorption, calcium limits it, as do certain drinks (tea and coffee). So, just plan your high-iron intake a little.

    I have to take an actual iron supplement, not multi-vitamin, but you shouldn't have to consider that unless a check-up with your doctor indicates the need.

    Here's a link with some suggestions:
