Wednesday phase 4, week 2

Meals
Meals were pretty good today, I had a small carb meal before my EEW session (cardio workout) and then one bigger one after. Had omelette, apple/peanutbutter and chicken the rest of the day.

Workout
My EEW consisted of a warm doing some light jogging, then I had an interval-run up and down a hill. Sprinting up, walking/jogging slowly back down, then right back up, 8 times. The last time I did this I could only do 4! Then some more relaxed jogging after the intervals, before I did one of those "lets toss some timber"-workouts!
Our neighbor at our cabin is cutting down some pines, and stuff was lying all over the place! So I found a log that I used for some core muscle training before I tossed some ready-cut pieces that were lying in a pile. And It was so much fun!!! YAY!!!! :D

Tuesday phase 4, week 2

Meals were really good the whole day, but then I went to our cabin where my parents had company - which I knew. First I had a regular dinner with fish, potatoes and overcooked vegetables, hehe. Then mom served waffles - I didn't have any. But as the evening went on, people (and I) got hungry again and mom served bread and crackers with BRIE cheese and jams of strawberry, raspberry and cloudberry, yummmm!!! I LOVE Brie and couldn't help myself. I ate way to much. But that's ok every once in a while, so I'll forgive myself. Besides i did one hell of a workout. ;)

Workout
Did upper body again for day two this time, which is a lot about core muscle. It was hard, and I worked real hard on it too, pushing with both weights and speed. So I'm really proud of myself! :D I also did a few pullups/chinups at the end just to exhaust myself - which worked extremely well since I was already pretty beat, hehe. So I definitely deserved some brie. :)

Monday phase 4, week 2

So today I did the lower body workout for day 1, phase 4.
I hadn't done this last week, so it was a bit different for me. But since a lot of the exercises were familiar I still rocked it! At the end there is a superset with 15sec rest inbetween a romanian single leg exercise and a donkey kickback exercise. I felt like cutting my legs off at the end - WOW that bites!!!! Since my back is crooked I felt it really well in my right butt-cheek, so I had to lean over a little to even that out. I still had a major butt-ache at the end. Go me!
(Today, Wednesday, I am so sore in my hamstrings it's ridiculous.)

Meals were good, don't remember exactly what I ate. Oh, yes, I had oats ++ for breakfast because Espen had made everything ready for me! I didn't have the heart to put it away and make my omelette... Also had oats as PW meal, and the rest of day was the regular omlette, salad and nuts.

Friday, Saturday, Sunday

So I actually had a pretty good weekend with the food. Had a daily omelette, bowl of oats (as PW meals), and salmon. Had snacks with cottage cheese mixes, nuts, apples etc. Also made myself a salad on Sunday.

WORKOUTS:

Friday
Did Day 4 Uppper Body for phase 4. Could have gone heavier on some exercises, but wasn't wuite sure how heavy I could go since we had a lot of new exercises/supersets/combinations. Still did a decent job! Felt wuite a bit of soreness in the evening from yesterdays workout!

Saturday
Oh man. we were both pretty sore from the lower body workout Thursday, so we had a fairly light EEW today. Did some kickboxing and sticks in the sun :)
I was sore in places I didn't know we had muscles. And I've been all kinds of sore before. WOW!! :O

Sunday
Sunday is our day off, but we still need to eat well! And so I did pretty good on the meals. Just the regular stuff, I need to get more inventive...
