Oh dear! Is it bad that I am so full of the excitement of Sunday that I forgot what happened Saturday? Okay, I'll try.
Saturday morning I worked. I got up at 4:30 and was pretty tired and my arms were still to sore to pump, pump, pump it up, so I took a "rest" and did pilates instead. It was a nice workout, but didn't cause me any difficulty. Then off to work for the morning, like this:
•6:00 Banana smoothie
•11:00 Pear
•1:00 Salad with tuna
•4:00 Mixed nuts, a carrot
•7:00 Pork stir-fry with brown rice
•9:00 Glass of milk (killing ice-cream craving)
Sunday has been AWESOME! I was woke up by a call from Amanda Jamitinya kicking me out of bed and telling me to go for a run. Pfft. It was totally raining! But I was up so I did arms and abs (see how I'm trying to be all smooth?). It was good, but now that I've had a taste for heavy weights and low reps, oh mumma, I wanna hurt!
Two sets of all of these, weights at 5kg, supersetted, listening to Derby Deeds with my own sweet shout-out from Megatron:
Warm Up: 30 Jumping Jacks, 10 Burpees, 40 Mountain Climbers
Bench Press w Tricep Extension, 12 reps; Push-Ups on Ball x 12
Plank Jumping Jacks, 10 reps; Walk-Out Push-Ups, 6 reps; Shoulder Press, 12 reps
Dumbbell Flies, 12 reps; Plank to Shoulder Taps, 20 reps
Bicep Curl, 12 reps; Hammer Curls, 12 reps; Dumbbell Upright Row, 12 reps
Single Arm Bent-Over Row, on ball, 12 reps each side; Tricep Dips on ball, 12 reps
Seated Pull-In, Back Extensions on Ball; Weighted Crunches; Reverse Curl w Ball + Thigh Squeeze; Scissor Kick; Oblique Crunches on Ball
Oh, and four and a half hours of skating! In which I booty blocked like Frida Beater and kicked ass and took names! Wut wut?! Fuck yeah. It was....the greatest in my entire life. Definitely.
And I was clever enough to eat well! Like this!
7:00 Smoothie: Zymil, protein powder, frozen strawberries, non-fat Greek yoghurt
9:30 Rye w pb and coffee (pre-training ritual)
12:30 Smoothie: same as above, but only a half serve, as dairy was not great in extreme heat
2:00 McDonalds ice coffee (skim w espresso shots, the real stuff), Snack Wrap without dressing – basically a piece of seared chicken with lettuce in a wrap
6:00 Handful of mixed nuts, 2 rice cakes with peanut butter
8:00 Tiny bowl of peas
And off to bed for sleepy times! I'm on such a derby high!
