Week 6 Day 2 Workout 5k in about 32mins, with lots of jumping over fallen branches, the sidewalk-crack sprint game, and running in place/burpees at stoplights, but we didn’t get caught at too many lights. I also had to walk a little at the halfway point because I got a side cramp that had been nagging at me for probably 1k. At the end we cooled down a bit with a walk, then I gave my friend a piggyback ride for half a block, hehe. We did one last sprint before getting back to my apartment. Stretched afterward Diet Post-run: Cup of iced black coffee Water bottle Breakfast: 1 small square of veggie-cauliflower pizza, w/ cheese & pesto Lunch: 3 scrambled eggs w/ leftover chopped veggies from making pizza, cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan, and olive oil (only ate about half of the batch) Multivitamin Water Water bottle during classes Snack: Remainder of my scrambled eggs Handful of macadamia nuts & almonds Pre-work snack: 1 slice of bacon Cup of whole milk Late dinner: 1 small square cauliflower pizza 1 slice of bacon on top Water Snack: Almonds & macadamia nuts Handful of mozzarella cheese Rest of my water bottle Baby carrots Life I think I got 5 or 6 hours of sleep, I don't quite remember :/ Week 6 Day 3 Workout Warmed up w/ .51mi on treadmill, 5 mins 100 jumping jacks 10 burpees 20 mountain climbers Pull-ups: 3x3, 1 negative Handstand push-up: 2 half ROM, 2 negatives Pistol Squats: 3x3 each leg, alternating. Fell a few times in there Plyometric push-ups: 3x5, w/ the "explosion" being more of a slight hop. I also didn't realize til recently that plyo and clapping PU's were two different things 3 pull-up negatives 2 half ROM handstand push-ups Headstand hold (wall assisted): 1:42, keeping core tension 2x10 box jumps, 2ft stretched Diet Breakfast: Coffee w/ a splash of milk and scoop of protein powder Water bottle throughout workout Post-workout: Cup of milk w/ 1 scoop protein powder Lunch: 2/3 diced chicken breast browned in olive oil Maybe 1c sautéed broccoli Small bowl of raw red kale Water Multivitamin Dinner: 1/3 chicken breast Small bowl cauliflower “grits” Parmesan cheese Handful of almonds & macadamia nuts Late snack: 1 square of bakers chocolate Couple macadamia nuts Cheddar cheese Life I initially only got like 5 hours of sleep but then I fell back asleep for like 3 more hours :/ Week 6 Day 4 I woke up reeeeaalllyy late today so I didn’t run, or do much of anything else for that matter “Lunch:” (I was in an extreme hurry) Coffee w/ 1 scoop protein powder A few almonds Snack: Couple bites of chicken Few macadamia nuts Water bottle throughout day Dinner: 2 eggs w/ 2 chopped mini peppers, garlic, parmesan cheese, & olive oil Snack: I finally got my miracle fruit tabs today so we had a “tasting party!” I had a few cookies made from coconut & tapioca flour, lemon juice, ginger, butter, coconut & olive oil, and a little coconut sugar. So much coconut Half a grapefruit Couple sour gummies Lime water A bite of bakers chocolate Lemonade I also tried my hand at paleo chocolate frosting! 2 ½ bakers chocolate squares, a couple spoonfuls of coconut oil, cinnamon, and a little agave nectar! Life Tonight I'm looking at a little less than 6 hours :/

Wah, life has been getting in the way of me posting lately :/ Rather than posted every detail from the last few days, I'll summarize according to my goals. Pull-ups: I haven't been to the gym since last Wednesday, but I've been doing a lot of tree climbing lately, and boxing is kicking my ass as well. I didn't go to the gym today because I felt like shit, but I decided to just see where I am with pull-ups tonight, and I cranked out 3 on my shower frame! It wasn't complete dead-hang because it was kinda low, but I did it, twice! Pistol squat: I came really close to getting it tonight after pull-ups, I couldn't quite get all the way down but I made it back up. I tried again a little while after but fell toward the bottom. Though I've also been toasting to hurricane Sandy... I'll see where I'm at with these on Wed and if nothing then I'll count this Plyometric push-ups: I've gotten 5 clapping push-ups, but I don't think my form was steady enough for it to count. I don't have enough power behind it to explode up off the ground, I just kinda spaz my hands up Handstand push-up: Still only able to do negatives. I've tried starting from a handstand but I can't even get my head off the ground Running: I've missed a lot of runs lately, between the weather and lack of motivation, but I completed a 5k in 28:50 (though I was dying afterward, and had to walk a few times during it), and also jogged 5k with some friends on thursday (continuously this time, about 37 mins) My diet has been okay, but I've been eating more sugar than I'd have liked to, as well as drinking a bit. The remainder of this challenge I'm going to be much more strict. My sleep schedule has been pretty atrocious, I've been getting maybe 5-6 hours a night, and I don't think that's fixable at this point

Week 5 Day 2 I didn't run because the weather was icky and rainy and I was tired as hell, but I did do a bit of tree climbing while waiting for the bus, as well as attempting pull-ups on branches. I'm so close! Diet I fasted until late afternoon, breaking it with a small bowl of leftover stir-fry Snack: 2 cookies that my friend’s mom made Late dinner: More leftover stir-fry w/ a little parmesan cheese Snack: Chunk of havarti cheese Handful shredded cheddar 2 tomato slices Life I think I got a little less than 6 hours of sleep Week 5 Day 3 Workout Did another speed run at the gym. Warmed up w/ .5mi treadmill at 6-7.5mph, 4:39 100 jumping jacks, fast pace w/ arms high I think 20 mountain climbers, I lost count somewhere 10 burpees 3 circuits of: 5 assisted pull-ups @ 28lbs 1 kick-up into handstand 3 walk-up-the-wall handstand negatives, going as slowly as I could manage 10 box jumps @ 2ft 10/9/10 standard push-ups 5 pole-assisted pistol squats, pulling myself slightly on the rise Very minimal rest, maybe 30 seconds max between circuits Did my usual stretches afterward Diet Breakfast: Coffee w/ 1 scoop protein powder, milk, and maybe 1tsp coconut oil Post-workout lunch: Cup of milk w/ 1 scoop protein powder Medium bowl squash soup w/ cheddar & a frozen pesto cube melted into it 1/3 chicken breast Snack: I caved into sweet tooth and just started eating coconut sugar with a spoon :/ Late dinner: 1/3 chicken breast Couple broccoli florets Spinach Handful of grape tomatoes Drizzling of olive oil Pesto cube Snack: Handful of walnuts Cheddar cheese from the bag Life I'm getting up early to run with a couple people, so I'll get about 6 hours

Week 5 Day 1 Well, didn't end up working out today. I feel like crap from consistently not enough sleep, plus my butt and calves killed today. I'm lame Diet I guess my eating patterns form yesterday carried over into today. I ended up with a lot of leftover cookies, so I just grazed on them throughout the day. I had a prepackaged buffalo chicken salad from school for lunch, which I didn't even need to get because I bought a bunch of veggies too. For dinner I stir-fried some spinach, lettuce, broccoli, water chestnuts, grape tomatoes, cucumber slices, asparagus, chunks of chicken breast, garlic, and a couple frozen pesto cubes, in olive oil. It was quite tasty but I only had a couple bites cuz I was full from all the cookies but at least they're gone now so they can no longer tempt me! Life I got distracted by cute puppy videos on the interwebs, so I'll be getting probably 6 1/2 hours tonight :/

Haha I know! BACONNN!!!

Week 4 Day 7 Workout Today I went to Letchworth Park with a few friends to watch the sun rise, then hiked for probably 6 hours. And those hills, my god. There were several areas where it was more climbing than hiking. My vibrams got some good use today but man, my calves and glutes are killing me! Diet Boy, diet... throughout the day I munched on bacon, sweet potato fries, cauliflower pizza, a mango, trail mix, and a disgusting amount of my semi-paleo cookies (everything is paleo except the brown rice flour, but that was cut with tapioca) I also had one water bottle of iced coffee, and one big one of water. Definitely wasn't enough though. Must hydrate! Life I didn't get much done today, so I have to get up early tomorrow to do homework. 6 hours tonight

Week 4 Day 5 Didn't work out again today Diet Breakfast: Coffee w/ milk, cinnamon, & 1 scoop protein powder, just to quiet my stomach a bit. For whatever reason I just don’t like eating breakfast I ended up getting super hungry about an hour later so I made a sort of cereal thing with a few scoops of almond meal and a splash of milk, w/ a little cinnamon, cooked in the microwave Small bowl of broccoli w/ cheddar melted over it Lunch: ½ chicken breast Couple baby carrots Multivitamin Water Dinner: Small bowl of squash soup ½ chicken breast Handful of frozen spinach & asparagus 1 small slice of cauliflower-sweet potato-crust pizza w/ homemade sauce, sweet peppers, grape tomatoes, baby carrots, spinach, broccoli, asparagus, cheddar, & parmesan cheese Water Life I got up pretty early to go to the farmers market so I only got about 5 hours of sleep Week 4 Day 6 Workout Boxing day! We warmed up w/ 3 rounds of jumping rope 2 mins and 10 push-ups. I still had to do them on my knees, my stamina is still awful We reviewed the jab and powerhand and learned some footwork, then did 2 rounds of: jumping jacks plank mountain climbers plank 1-2 rapid fire plank burpees plank all activities 20 seconds, w/ 10 seconds rest between It definitely kicked my butt, but nowhere near as bad as last time, I could actually walk afterwards lol. Stretched when I got back, did quads, sitting hamstrings, glute twist, butterfly, and some light shoulder stretches Diet Breakfast: Slice of leftover veggie-cauliflower pizza Coffee w/ milk & cinnamon Lunch: Panini on red kale instead of bread, w/ chicken, tomato slices, avocado, havarti cheese, and white peach balsamic vinegar Iced black coffee Post-boxing dinner: Medium bowl of squash soup cup milk w/ 1 scoop protein powder Snack: I made my tapioca-bakers chocolate chip cookies again, I sampled a couple of those just to check how the recipe was (which was delicious) Life I'm getting up super early to see the sun rise/go hiking at Letchworth Park again so I'll only get about 4 hours of sleep I had to make sure everything was ready in advance so I don't forget anything

Week 4 Day 4 I didn't end up running today. At least it gave me time to get stuff done. It's kind of obnoxious how busy I am Diet Breakfast: Cup of black coffee Lunch: 2 microwaved eggs w/ mini pepper, broccoli, garlic, & cheddar Snack: Handful of grape tomatoes Dinner: Multivitamin 3 hard-boiled eggs Baby carrots ½ chicken breast brushed w/ olive oil, garlic, rosemary, & lemon pepper Snack: Couple spoonfuls of sour cream “ almond meal Life I got quite distracted on da interwebs, so I only ended up getting 5 hours of sleep :/

Week 4 Day 3 Workout Today I worked for a speed workout! Warmed up with .5mi on the treadmill from 5.5-7mph, finishing at 5 mins on the dot 100 fast-paced jumping jacks 20 mountain climbers 10 burpees 3 circuits of: 5 assisted pull-ups at 34lbs 4 walk-up-the-wall half handstand push-ups, at about a 20-degree angle from the wall. I only went about halfway down, and my core felt pretty wobbly. At least I know what I have to improve on now 10 prisoner squats, extra slow on the last circuit 5 clapping push-ups, though the 'explosion' didn't really happen until I was up to the plank position. That'll be something to work on 1 min elbow plank 1-2 min rest between circuits I ended up finishing about 15 mins earlier than I anticipated, so I had time to stretch before the bus came! I did cobra, twisted glutes stretch, butterfly, sitting hamstring stretch, lats, inner thigh, arm pull stretch, bicep/chest shoulder pull, lunging calf stretch, and quads Diet Breakfast: Black coffee w/ cinnamon & nutmeg Water bottle throughout workout Post-workout lunch: 2 burnt pieces of bacon (still good!) Small bowl of squash soup w/ steamed broccoli & spinach Cup of whole milk w/ 1 scoop protein powder Multivitamin Couple baby carrots Water Pre-work snack: Macadamia butter w/ blueberries Water Very late dinner: 2 microwaved eggs w/ broccoli, diced tomatoes, garlic, cheddar cheese, and cayenne pepper Baby carrots dipped in sour cream Water A little almond meal, just straight ½ square baker’s chocolate Life I'm running later in the day tomorrow so I can sleep in a little, planning on 7 hours *edit* well, I accidentally set my alarm for pm instead of am...there's an extra 1 1/2 hours

More playing catch up... Week 4 Day 1 Workout Warmed up with 100 jumping jacks, 20 mountain climbers, & 10 burpees (no push-up) 3 circuits of: 6 assisted pull-ups w/ 40lbs assistance (did 10 barbell body rows on circuit 3 instead because a group of women was hogging the machine) 10 pike presses w/ feet on 2ft box (8 last circuit) 10 (each leg) pistol squat negatives, with a couple little 'pumps' at the bottom 1 minute plank, on elbows I stretched when I got home cuz I had to catch the bus. Did regular upper & lower body stretches, pigeon & cobra, toe touches, arm-pulling tri/shoulder stretch, back/side stretches, extra hamstring stretching Diet Breakfast: Coffee w/ milk & cinnamon Water bottle throughout workout Post-workout/lunch: 1c greek yogurt w/ 1 scoop protein powder Water Multivitamin Baby carrots dipped in sour cream Dinner: Small bowl of squash soup, I think my mom made it with organic butter, onion, and I don’t remember what else, but it was primal-friendly ½ diced chicken breast w/ pesto Handful of raw spinach Water Stress-snack Handful of macadamia nuts Couple spoonfuls of sour cream I tried to toast my almond-mash stuff in a pot on the stove (it was quite impulsive), and it just turned into almond meal. Not what I was aiming for, but hey I can work with it I made macadamia butter w/ a little agave nectar and cinnamon and had a couple spoonfuls of that. Also, a friend offered me a powerade and I took it without thinking, then realized how much sugar was in it as I was about to finish it. Whoops Life I think I got about 6 1/2 hours of sleep, but I ended up going back to sleep for like 2 1/2 more hours Week 4 Day 2 I was planning on doing a distance run today, but when I got up to turn my alarm off I could barely walk, literally every muscle in my legs hurt. I guess that's what I get for trying to do pistol squats while still sore from boxing. I'll probably go a little easier tomorrow. I stretched here and there throughout the day Diet Breakfast: Coffee w/ almond meal mixed in the grounds, milk Lunch: I ran out of time to make lunch so I got lunch at a little café on campus, but all they had that wasn’t pastries or granola was sushi and teeny tiny salads. I would have gotten a salad but there was no way that would’ve held me over (should have just fasted, I’m pretty sure half the sushi ingredients weren’t even food) Pint of whole milk Snack: Blueberries Coffee w/ half & half Cheddar cheese Macadamia butter Very late dinner: ½ diced chicken breast w/ leftover veggie ‘paste’, pesto, & a slice of provolone melted into it Life Tonight looks like 6 1/2 hours

Week 3 Day 7 Didn't work out today. All the stretching in the world could not have prevented this soreness. Even my hamstrings hurt, I don't think that's happened before! At least I was lifting a bunch of stuff during work I think I'm going to revise my workout schedule to compensate for boxing class, maybe replace one of my sprint days with a distance run and let Sundays be my rest days Diet Breakfast: Coffee w/ milk, cinnamon, and a tinch of nutmeg Lunch: 2 scrambled eggs w/ spinach, diced tomatoes, and broccoli, w/ garlic & basil, cooked in olive oil, and a slice of provolone melted into it Snack: Coffee w/ milk I made a couple raw stuffed mini peppers, filled w/ leftover veggie “paste” mixed w/ sour cream. I ended up just eating the mixture by itself though Dinner: I had to run out the door so I quickly had a little bit of chicken and spinach wrapped in 2 slices of provolone Multivitamin Snack: About 1/2c milk Probably a cup of greek yogurt w/ almonds mixed in A couple spoonfuls of my attempt at almond butter; it came out more like almond meal than butter :/ I probably should have toasted them or something 2 slices of muenster I was still really hungry from my pathetic dinner, and wouldn’t have a chance to eat again until well after midnight, so I filled myself up so I wouldn’t be tempted by the nasty fried foods At the very end of my shift I caved and had a bite of a chicken finger, but my boss walked by so I threw it out Life Going to bed shortly so that'll give me about 7 hours

Week 3 Day 6 Workout Boxing! We warmed up with 3 rounds of jump roping for a few minutes then push-ups. I had to switch to my knees by the 2nd round :/ Also, I (re)discovered that I am quite uncoordinated with a rope after that we worked a little bit on stance, jabs, and punches, but the good stuff happened later. I forget what they were called but we started with 10 seconds each of jumping jacks, burpees (no push-up), push-ups, mountain climbers, and squats. Then 20 seconds of those minus push-ups, then 30s of J.J. burpees & squats, 40s of J.J. & squats, 50s of squats, then 60s of whichever we wanted (naturally I picked burpees). But holy crap, it kicked my ass! I stretched like hell when I got home, doing my back/core, calves, toe touches, side lunges, and those arm-pulling tricep/shoulder stretches, in addition to my regular stretches. Diet Breakfast: Coffee w/ 1 scoop protein powder, milk, and cinnamon Lunch: ½ a chicken breast Post-boxing: Scoop of protein powder in glass of milk Handful of almonds A few baby carrots dipped in sour cream Late dinner: 2 slices of veggie cauliflower crust pizza, w/ this chopped veggie “paste” of peppers, broccoli, spinach, baby carrots I went out last night so I had a fair amount to drink I also munched on chicken after that. I probably ate more, but I honestly don't remember Life I had to work this morning so I got about 6 hours of sleep

Oh man, tornados? That's pretty hardcore!

Week 3 Day 5 I didn’t work out today, but I’m ok with that because tomorrow I’m going to a boxing class that my school is sponsoring. I tried it last year but was too out of shape to finish the program, so I want to give it another go Diet Breakfast: Coffee w/ 1 scoop protein powder Lunch: 2 small slices cauliflower pizza Snack: 2 strips of leftover baked chicken A bunch of apple spread. Probably more than I should have, but at least there’s no added sugar Dinner: Last 2 slices of pizza. I need to make bigger batches! Multivitamin Snack: Handful of raw almonds Slice of provolone Life Going to get about 7 hours tonight, woo

Week 3 Day 4 Workout This morning I went for a short run with JasmineDragon, but as soon as we got outside we agreed we were too cold to do intervals. So we ran our usual route of about 1.83mi with some slight variance of pace instead. I'm really not liking this weather > Diet Pre-run: Cup of black coffee Breakfast: Glass of water Coffee w/ 1 scoop protein powder and milk Lunch (part 1): I was in a hurry to get out the door so I just wrapped a bunch of raw spinach in a slice of muenster Lunch (part 2): I was still hungry and had time after class so I got a burrito bowl w/ shredded beef, lettuce, jalapenos, tomatoes, pico, cilantro, onions, cheese, sour cream, and lime juice Dinner: Once again I found myself scrambling to get out the door, so I just had a glass of milk with a scoop of protein powder Pint of whole milk Late snack: I wasn’t that hungry, but I tried a recipe for cauliflower crust pizza (thanks connally7!), so naturally I had to sample a slice…or two. I loaded it up with homemade tomato sauce, spinach, broccoli, sweet peppers, chicken, bacon, 3 kinds of cheese, and lots of garlic! Mmmm I drank a couple water bottles throughout the day Life I could have gone to bed earlier but wasted a bunch of time on the interwebs So it'll be about 6 1/2 hours tonight

Week 3 Day 3 I didn't go to the gym today, I still felt really out of whack from going out to eat It was laundry day though, so I did get some lifting in haha Diet Breakfast: Cup of coffee w/ 1 scoop protein powder. I found a brand at Wegmans that only has 5 grams of carbs and no artificial sweeteners. It’s only a gram of fat but I can mix it with milk or greek yogurt or something Lunch (so much for fasting): I was too hungry to wait for meat to cook so I made a quick salad of spinach, 2 mini peppers, and leftover broccoli, with a “dressing†of sour cream and a hearty sprinkling of Colby jack Slice of muenster Multivitamin Dinner: I was in a hurry so I mixed a scoop of protein powder with a few scoops of greek yogurt, with 2 spoonfuls of pure apple spread on the side Snack: I got hungry again so for some reason I decided a couple slices of cheese with sour cream would be a good snack. I also had half a square of baker’s chocolate. Not a great recovery day Life Got 7 hours

Same, the way my schedule works out I usually end up with 6, sometimes 5 :/ Definitely. I guess that's even more incentive to stay clean!

Week 3 Day 2 Workout I didn't do my usual intervals today, but I hiked around Letchworth state park for probably 5 hours this morning (to see the sun rise!), and it was fucking COLD! Pardon my french But holy crap, the hills were nasty! My legs refuse to cooperate any more Diet Today started out ok, but turned less than favorable Had a mug of coffee w/ milk first thing in the morning I froze all my food last night so I could bring it with me and thaw it in time to eat Breakfast/snack: 5 bacon strips 1 sweet potato-worth of fries, with cinnamon and olive oil. I also cooked the bacon on top of them, so they absorbed some of that flavor, OH MY GOD! A small bowl's worth steamed broccoli I also ate a shit-ton of the cookies I made. They weren't terrible for you, but I definitely ate way too many Lunch: We went out to eat and I got this turkey and gruyere sandwich with red pepper slices on sourdough toast. It wouldn't have been so bad if it wasn't super greasy and didn't come with fries, but it was delicious and I didn't care at the moment. I sure paid for it later though, holy crap, I think my entire digestive system is leading a revolution against me. Definitely IFing tomorrow. I also got 2 small cups of coffee w/ a packet of half & half At some point along the way I lost my water bottle, so I ended up pretty dehydrated. That's both bottles I've lost now! Didn't eat the rest of the day, save for half a baker's chocolate square Life Going to bed shortly, for 7 hours tonight. I'm pooped

Thanks! Haha my "kipping" is more like flailing my body around around trying to get up to the bar

Week 3 Day 1 Workout Warmed up w/ .5mi treadmill @ 5.5-6mph 100 jumping jacks, keeping my arms above my waist at all times 20 mountain climbers (each side) 2 circuits of: 5 pull-up negatives 10 almost-pike-presses (I kept flattening out slightly like a decline push-up), feet on 2ft box 10 box jumps, 2ft 10 barbell body rows 5 clapping push-ups (added 5 standard on last circuit) 10 back squats, 65 & 75lbs cooled down w/ .5mi @ 5-4.5mph Did my regular stretches, w/ railing hamstring stretches Diet Pre-workout: Cup of black coffee Water bottle throughout workout Post-workout breakfast: 1 egg 2 crumbled bacon strips Couple small broccoli florets Handful of spinach Cooked together in the microwave Side of sour cream Water Lunch: 3 strips of bacon Scrambled eggs w/ garlic & basil, I think about 3 Sautéed spinach Probably 7 pitted dates I didn’t really eat dinner. I kinda just snacked and sampled the cookies I was making, which weren’t too terrible in relativity. Tapioca and brown rice flour, pecan butter, unsweetened baker’s chocolate, butter, cinnamon, eggs, coconut sugar, agave nectar, and a little ginger. I think I had 3 cookies. I also sampled the steamed broccoli I made for tomorrow, it just had olive oil, garlic, lemon pepper, and parmesan cheese. Life I'm getting up really early to go see the sun rise at Letchworth state park! So tonight will be about 6 hours

Goal Progress I don't think I'm going to grade all of my goals on a weekly basis, just the objectively measurable ones. Pistol Squat progress: Still on both legs, doing weighted squats for now Pull-up progress: Negatives, very slow descent Handstand push-up progress: Something in between a decline push-up and pike press, w/ my feet on a 2ft box 10 Plyometric push-ups: Up to 5, but they're not very stable

Week 2 Day 7 I went home for the day so I didn't work out, but I worked with my dad on burpees a little and otherwise just played lol Diet Breakfast: coffee w/ milk & spoonful of honey Lunch: My mom made turkey meatballs with shredded carrots and zucchini cooked into them, they were amazing!!! I literally just ate those for lunch Iced black coffee Snack: a small bowl of my dad's thai food: chicken, broccoli, & pineapple in curry sauce, sans noodles glass of water Dinner: MORE MEATBALLS!!! a big water bottle on the drive back Snack: a few pitted dates even more meatballs sour cream - I'm weird like that Life I'm on fall break, but I'm planning on getting up early to go to the gym, so I'll get about 7 hours of sleep tonight I forgot to post last week's goal progress, but I'll just pick it up with this week's (more on that tomorrow, for now it's bedtime)

Haha thanks! I pretty much have no point of reference for 5k times, so it's nice to know I'm off to a good start Your pushups will get there Practice box jumps on squishy stuff!

Week 2 Day 6 Today I did the Rochester PhotoFinish5k, my first timed race! Came in at 28:50, I'll take it! Did my normal stretches afterward, along with a cobra pose to stretch my abs. I also got a free massage! Later in the day I did 15 standard pushups, just to see how many I could do in a row Just for the hell of it I tried to box jump onto my friend's bed, which had to be at least 3 feet tall, and made it! I tried it again just to be sure it wasn't a fluke, and made it again! Diet Breakfast: Coffee w/ about 1 tbsp coconut oil Packet of trail mix after 5k Water bottle Lunch: 4 strips of bacon (damn its bacony goodness) Leftover salad and purple kale, cooked in the bacon grease that was left. Only a few bites though.
