The upper back felt very good today! You know I love putting a percentage on it so I would say I am about 88% at the moment. I wanted to start to get some volume done today in my training and was happy to bang out 410 snatches with the 12 kg bell. I did a set of 50, 60, 70, 80 , 100 and a final set of 50 with about 2 minutes rest in between rounds. I believe I am a workout or 2 away from picking up my 16 kg bell on the regular :)
My diet is fucking ridiculous at the moment. I have been weighing myself every other day and for a few weigh-ins in a row I was 157/158 which I believe is a little too light for me! I have been eating whatever I want for the past few days and it has been fun :) I had ham and egg on a bagel from Bagel Broker for breakfast. I just finished off a killer burrito and a boatload of chips at Sharkeys on Cahuenga for lunch/dinner. It looks like I'm gonna have cannabis cookies and yogurtland for dinner holy cow.
Obviously I do not recommend eating this way. The biggest problem with it is how hard it can be to get back on the program when the time comes. My trick to getting through the first day back eating clean is to have only coffee/almond milk early in the day and wait as long as I can to eat real food. After a few days of loading up on carbs my appetite gets severely fucked up. By fucked up I mean I can only muster up an appetite for carbs and find my typical proteins totally unappetizing. To counteract this I basically fast until my body and mind are so hungry that they crave proteins. Once I get that meal of eggs, bacon and veggies into my blood my cravings for sugars go away almost instantly! I'm telling ya, that oatmeal you are eating for breakfast every day is setting you up for nutritional failure later in the day. Instant oatmeal in particular is a terrible breakfast food. Did you know that instant oatmeals glycemic index is 83? Your body treats instant oatmeal the same way it does all white foods, almost exactly like sugar! Seriously, you would be better off having a piece of pizza for breakfast.
Protein for breakfast for lifetime of easily being ripped!
Heh, heh, you said snatch.
