Day 1

Weigh in and measurement took place last night. Numbers were high like I expected.

319 lbs
27 1/2 body fat

Going strict zone and workouts for next 40 days. Comes out to roughhly 23 blocks for the first 2 weeks then we are going to re-evaluate.

Day 1 started nice and early. Made sure to get up by 7 to eat breakfast in prep for today's WOD. 5 blocks for breakfast is a lot of food. Milk plus 3 eggs plus some almonds. WOD was a team effort today. Team WODs are always a blast. Nothing like a little competition and the encouragement from the team is killer. We did a FGB style WOD:

Pullups
Ball slams
Row
Tire flips
Single arm KB swings

Points were allocated based on how you did thinngs (ie. 1/2 pt per assisted pullup to 2 points for dead hang pullup...). we all counted points but in all honesty we were way off. It was all about having fun.

I felt solid on pullups doing 30 total in the 3 rounds with the black band. Ball slams were a breeze with the 30 lb ball. Over the three rounds I did 20 (only did them for 2 rounds). Rowing was solid. We had 2 people row per round and I ended up rowing twice. I burned 27 calories dirst round and 21 the second round. Tire flips were fun as well as the KB swings.

These types of workouts are fun.

Back to the diet side I had a great 3 block snack of 3 cups of milk and some almonds. Lunch was a 5 oz ribeye with a ton of vegetables and even after that many I had to eat a piece of bread to get the carbs. Fnished up with an avocado. I am floored by how much food this is. Afternoon snack of cheese and an apple. Really hit the spot. Dinner is ribs and beans.

A key thing I learned this weekend is my wat intake is just not enough. I have been monitoring it today and I have been consuming what I need which by comparison to earlier is a ton more. I think this is why it has taken me so long for my triceps to recover. There is a great MWOD video where KS shows you how to check for fluid in the body by pressing on the leg. I recommend it ti everyone.

Lastly, not sure if it is the diet or not but I feel like I have a lot of energy. Going to hit the pullup bar heavy in the garage tomorrow and get sme running in.
