MimiMeirah's Journal, 15 January 2014

I am so sore, because of my workout from yesterday. We have been doing lots of handstand push-ups, strict pull ups, military presses and double unders. I am getting better with the double unders, which is a great, because for me they are one of the worst exercise in Crossfit. I Need to work more on my handstand push-ups, and strict pull ups. I am always doing kipping pull ups, since that doing strict pull-ups really hard for me. Losing some weight will make it easier for me to go on with my exercises, I will have less weight to hold and to pull.

My weigh in shows that I am still losing weight rapidly. Well I wanted to make sure I am losing fat too, not just water weight. Losing water weight is part of the deal at the beginning, so it is not bad at all. Since my carb consumption went down, my body retains less water. My body fat monitor shows that my body fat decreased, so there is fat loss too. My current body fat is 28,6%.

Recording my food intake helps me a lot to stay focused. Because in the past I did all these manually with more counting, after a while I gave up on it. At the moment my calorie deficit is about 20-25% of my RDI, but once a week a plan to eat more and to consume my whole RDI allowance, it is a kind of treat for myself, and also a way to make sure my body won't get used to my lowered calorie intake.
195.8 lb Lost so far: 6.2 lb.    Still to go: 16.8 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

Mimi, I feel tired just reading about your workout. LOL. I am with you on the soreness though. I am just today beginning to feel less soreness and pain when I sit or get up off my chair. My Saturday leg workout was probably too severe after having been out for a month of no weights. But my lack of patience got the better of me. 😁. It's back day today, did chest on Monday, so I'm sure my upper body will be joining the soreness club in no time. Here's to muscle gains and quicker recovery times.💪💪

Dmgarcia13 keep up with the great work, in a couple of session you will gain your strength back and you will recover easier and easier. :) I drink some whey protein shake with creatine after my workouts, which helps to recover faster. Or at least I believe in that it helps! :)
