I love you! Did it make you sleepy or wake you up? I wonder how many poses are the same as in the sun salutation. Wouldn't it be funny if they were very similar? I love that you're a yoga rebel, I didn't even know that was possible!

Morning Yoga for the win!  I know I've always found it to wake me up because it gets the blood flowing and makes me ready for the day.

I honestly don't know why they called it an evening relaxation practice.  It really wasn't much different than the other sessions I'd done; lunges, downward facing dog, warrior poses, etc.  The only difference I could tell was that there was a longer Savasana at the end than usual.  Otherwise it was just a normal yoga practice.

Also, this is the sun salutation. I keep swearing that I'll get up early enough to start the day with this, but since I get up hours before the sun it is kind of tough.

I'm going to have to do this a few times.  You could always do this facing your sad light.

Ok so for the most part I did great with the not eating junk yesterday. I made a crockpot stew that was really sad and not nearly as good as it should have been though. Afterwards I met my mom out for a friend's birthday. It was freezing and she had ordered soup but couldn't finish it, so I did have a little bit of bar-quality soup and french bread. Mostly to warm up. Not quite the successful day of fantastic eating I had planned, but by the time I had the soup it was already after my bed time so actually my standard day was decently successful.

 

Today is a lifting day, a running errands (and getting a pedomiter) day and a hulk-smashing through productitiude like I did on Monday day. Pretty excited, I've got a LOT to do but I'm hoping that I can do it all and get to bed at a reasonable hour because I've been up past my bedtime all week so far. Keep your fingers crossed and have a FANTASTIC Wednesday.

Hey... good job. You know what I always say, "soup happens." It's kind of my catch phrase.

 

Now go SMASH this day in the face.

I'm a time traveler, but I can only go one way and only a second at a time.

Looking forward to hearing about the smashing! :D

 

You know, I want to get a pedometer.. Gonna have to do that next time I am in town.

So, I went to the store, bought a pedomiter, it didn't work, I took it back and got one that did, 2 hours later I looked at it and it was no longer working. Might have to spend more than $5 on one...

 

It was a lifty day at the gym. I was really really struggling with squatting 135, which is absurd. It was so hard I almost cried in the squat rack. 1.5 months ago I was squatting 165! Ugh! I don't want to have to drop my squat weight even more but I may just to balance out. Anyway afterwards one of the guys in the gym came up to me and complimented my squat, told me my depth was good. Then one of the guys I chat with sometimes came up to me and told me that I'd obviously lost weight. I was in shock, I didn't really think I had lost weight at all. In late Novemeber I was 140ish when I weighted in the afternoon, and I know I was weighing in late December first thing in the mornings as 135. I figured it was just the difference of time of day. Well after my workout (when I normally weigh more, plus it was afternoon) I went and weight myself and I'm down close to 130. Since this was afternoon and after workout I can't imagine what the scale would say in the morning. I'm thinking as I steered my diet more and more toward paleo I dropped weight but maybe this is why my lifts are so hard? I know that I have issues getting enough healthy calories every day and I've fallen short on a lot of my more-primal days. Going to try eating more and see if I can nail it that way.

 

Work weights:

Squat 135x3x5

Bench 65x3x5

DL 125x3x5

Lat pulldown 100x1x2

    With the lat pulldown I have no clue if this gym is in pounds or Kg, also since it is to prep me for the pullup my goal is really more to get one rep of higher weight than sets of reps

 

Personal productitude: Ran some errands, mostly didn't do much of anything, was in a funk. Has A really awsome lady (thanks Kid) call to help me with my resume. Will be finishing that tonight. I hulk-smashed nothing. :( Today I run all the errands in the other direction and then head home to finish the resume sprucing. Tomorrow, however, I expect to go she-hulk on all the things. NO MORE FUNK! Lots of Productitude for the gooderment of humanity and myself!

Yeah for getting back to all things lifty!  You'll be back where you were in no time.  It's not bad to back off a little bit.  Much better than hurting yourself.

 

What's up with the sucky pedometers?  You're going to have to hulksmash the pedometers from the looks of it! :)

 

Happy Thursday!  Good luck with all of the errands.  What do you have planned for dinner?

I think you're right about needing to eat more to help your muscles build back up.  Go kick some ass, Jess!

I have been in the same funk and I want to smash all of the things because I am better than that for funksake.

 

EAT MOAR. MOAR PROTEINS. Have you been doing any protein shakes/smoothies? That's an easy way to add cals. I know we had talked about them before.

 

Cheap pedometers are a trap! I got one off of Amazon and it sucks nuggets. I've been using my phone and I don't feel like that is entirely accurate. I want to save up for a new wearable (fitbit) though. I saw a bunch get announced at CES, so I will be looking at those soon enough. That's right world... just take all of my monies!
