Tues 1/15/2013

I was a laaaameooo. And took a day off.
Did play to games of Settlers of Catan (which is a workout for your brain).  I lost once to Thal (what?) and once to Mark<-- blaming it on Battlestar Gallactica that was playing in the background

I ate things I can't remember anymore, but definitely it included:

Somethingforbreakfast
Coffee, trailmix
Lunch #1: 1 turkey sandwhich
Lunch #2: 1 footlong subway chicken guy
Snack: 3 large chocolate chip cookies
Dinner: 1 plate ridiculously cheap veggie and shrimp lo mien


Wed 1/16/2013

Wasn't feeling it, and then went to the gym at lunch and had a cutie workout buddy and it got better

10 min to warm up to 85% backsquat
EMOM for 7 rounds: 3 high bar backsquats @ 155#

3 RFT:

7 chest to bar pullups
7 ringdips
15 KB swings @ 24kg
50 Double Unders

Rest 1:1

15:00 min time cap
Because I ain't got no Double Under skillz ( I get every-other for 10-15) I DNF (2 rounds + 4 ring dips)
I am proud to say that chest to bar pull-up I can beast. My ring dips are shaky and I have to use a band for stabilization after about 4, but MUSCLE-UP HERE I COME!

2 of my 3 jump-ropes are out of commission. I've got to dig out the third. (I'm hoping I brought it to NY)

Played basketball after work but was sucking so bad-- I couldn't call it a real workout.

Food:
First Bfast: 1 piece of peanut butter toast
Coffee
2nd Bfast: Sausage egg and cheese on a roll and more coffee
Lunch: Leftover rice and stir-fried veggies
More Coffee
Dinner: a massive mound of steamed broccholi topped with a massive mound of sausage
Dessert: Bowl of icecream

I'm bad at blogging.

But not so bad at moving about.

I've been swimmin' steady for about 45 minutes, twice per week.

And rehabbin twice per week. I'm tired of rehab. So very tired.

I went to play basketball tonight with Mai, Meesh, and other various friends. Lots of fun. Lots of sore. and it felt good to move around and push my knee.

Will definitely be participating in future gatherings.

No soccer yet though. Don't wanna get ahead of myself.

If anyone wants to swim, I'll be going again on Friday afternoon. Hit me up. :D

Burpee Death

The short version:
730PM
No good treadmills
No socks
Mile
Burpee Death
13min Abs reincarnation

The long version:
730: Today I left work at 7:30 thinking ughhh work (maybe echoing your sentiment a little, schmanna) but silly Emhsieh - just do a quick workout! I thought.
No good treadmills: All 2 good treadmills at office gym were taken. Plan was to run 3 miles. but no worries Em, just do another workout yayyy!
No socks: nooo I forgot socks! but that's a bad excuse Emily - you don't need socks!
No hairbrush: oops, but why does that matter? i'll just rock messy workout hair

Mile: warmed up with a 9min mile. bad treadmill = smack hands on poorly designed and placed handholds frequently and painfully.
Burpee Death: 100 burpees for time (w overhead jump clap)
  25 with pushups
  25 with nothing
  25 with pancakes
  25 with pushups
Time: 8:51
HR: 172
Thoughts: ugh, my worst time yet since the first time I started tracking my times in June... but I guess the last time was 10/32 (not a real date, but that's what it says) so the first time of 2013 not bad!
Burpee Death: have you guys ever heard of Fan Death? I think I've come as close to burpee death as it is possible to come close to fan death.
13 Min Abs: I live! Alive enough to do abs. At this point there is only 1 other person in the office gym and he has the biggest pouffiest mustache I've ever seen irl.

DONE: 40min.

Me looking alive but feeling dead.

Small glimpse of my spoiled life at home. Dinner waiting for me :)

So yeah, there I am! With a dopey mouth open look - trying to smile and say hello because I'm not visiting friends in Provi this weekend! And yup, there's the food that is now all in my stomach. Don't know what these things are called in English but if you wanna find out and enjoy tasty meals with me COME VISIT and my mom and I will cook for youuu! (the gym pic photoshoot was followed shortly after with my first  ever selfie-mirror-abs-shot, complete with quad flex. available upon request, because I am embarrassed that I took such a myspace-y photo and am admitting it here)

Off to do ref certifying online courses!

mondddddday

Yesterday was slow at work and fun at home.  I dislike offices so much. Even as I believe what we do is important.

2 min AMRAP @ same weight: 11-- only missed 1.

But then Met/con:

5 rounds for total time and total cal

30 sec Row for Cal
5 chest to bar pullups
5 hand release pushups (subs for 5 MU cuz I aint got the skillz yet)
5 Power Snatch @ 75# <-- weird how much easier these snatches get when not full squat
Rest one minute

14:12 + 49 cal

Foods:
2 fried eggs and toast
Coffee
2 packets trail mix
Turkey sandwich and a Pear, coffee
Coffee, trail mix, 1 handful almonds
Veggie stirfry with rice on a bed of bacon (don't judge)

Probably going to take the day off today to work on DO applications, but will post food tomorrow

Sorry I suck

Hi friends-
Sorry I suck.
The Nonviolence GED program I've been working on at The Institute finally kicked off and I am
SWAMPED
and stressed
but in a good way
as well as BWRFC things.
Oof

That said-
I haven't worked out as much
and I've been drinking a bit more lol
but still eating relatively healthy.

I've been slacking on eating my 5 small meals a day too :(

It ends up being 3-4.

But because I don't have too many shitty things to eat at my house I can only really grab for a rice cake and cottage cheese.

The drinking though has been more, relative.

Had a benefit concert for The Institute and wined it up there and then last night went to a bar with my boss, her sister, friends, and Lorena.
So there are those things.

I'll get back to being more consistent throughout this week.

Ie.

Today's NOMS

1. coffee
2. vermicelli noodles with tofu, green beans, carrots, and a peanut sauce
3. rice cakes and nonfat yogurt
4. and to be continued- lol

I've also run out of food stamps a tad cause Syd's been out of school and I've been supporting her a tad. But it evens out.

Glad folks are contributing :)

Miss you guys

Wish we could all work out together, eat together, and be less stressed together from our work lives, lolz.

Love
