Day 49/50
MONI feel asleep last night at around 6PM... It might have been a food coma. I woke up at midnight and thought that it wouldn't be reasonable to stay up, so I tried to fall back asleep. Some hours later - which felt like only minutes, it was 5AM. Not feeling my total best, I decided to skip the 6AM crossfit class and attend the 7AM instead.
Workout
Warm up
5x 15kg complex (below)
2x 20kg complex
EMOM: 2 front squat + clean and jerk complex
1x1 20kg complex
1x1 22.5kg complex
6x1 25kg complex (!!)
EMOM: Wall walks
6x1 As close as I could get to the wall with a 5 second hold
12 minute AMRAP [5 rounds+ 5]
10 hand-release push ups
10 ring pulls
200m run
I rx'd (is that the term that people use when they beat their max weight/rep? LOL IDEK) my push jerk! It was a little scary but yay! Anyways, I was thinking... It's much more convenient to watch lectures at home rather than in person because 1) 9AM lectures means I have to wake up at 5, 2) the lecturers talk fast and say big words and in turn, I waste time trying to write out words that I hope to search later... 3) I can watch the recorded lectures at a slower speed and also relisten to certain parts. The CONS of this idea is 1) the lecturers might mention sometimes important in person that isn't recorded - and that's what i'm afraid of. Missing out on little hints and tips for the unit! But is it really important to pass? Depends.
I'm hanging out with my bestie (Sarah - i'm going to use her name now because i'm starting to sound like kid when I continuously refer to her as my BFF LOL) on Wednesday! Eeeek i've got yoga + gym + movies + vegan food planned!!!
I am determined to better my fitness, health and general wellbeing.

Eating on the Zone plan wasn't too bad yesterday tbh. I wasn't too hungry. The only factor that was making me hungry was just my mind thinking about food but my body wasn't actually yearning for the food to function. I need to separate the idea of food being a way to treat boredom to food being fuel for my body. And as much as people like to diss crossfit, I really do enjoy it and will be continuing with it (until I can't afford to pay for it anymore HAHA).
Today WILL be productive. I will be working on my:
- Write up notes for PCOL quiz.
- Finish writing up the methods for the PCOL enzyme experiment and upload to group page.
I'LL BE SEEING SARAH TOMORROW. I CAN'T WAIT.
P.S. I'm scrapping the whole Zone Diet! I have no idea why I even decided to try it. Actually I do know why HOWEVER now I know that HCLF is ALWAYS the way to go!
