Rest day for Wednesday. Looking forward to Thursday's workout. Wed food (It's still Wed right now) Brad: B: Omlette with ham and onions S: dried apricots L: Tucanos--salad (no cheese, no grains) with vinaigrette, turkey, chicken, beef, bacon, diet soda D: pureed butternut squash, ham, roasted brussels sprouts
Heleen: B: Same as Brad S: Muscle milk L: chicken with pecan sauce D: same as Brad Water. Wow. That is not enough vegetables for me!
can you share your pecan sauce recipe? I made the fried cauliflower "rice"... converted! Loved it! I think I just want to eat at your house for a few months and steal every yummy healthy thing ;)
Ball cleans (20#) - 31 OHS = 45-55-65-75-85 Back Extensions (on the machine) - 51 Bonus - 9:16
The OHS are getting a bit better. Today was the first OHS day that I didn't feel completely like a wobbly fish walking on its fins. Using a wide stance helped me stay on my heels.
Last night I ate pizza. Today B - Eggs, Green Drink, Cold Cereal L - Green Drink, yogurt, bananas, and pizza
I have a few questions for those of you that drink protein shakes (or know about them): What does it do for you? Does it help recovery time after workouts? Does it help build strength and/or size? Is it just a faster, more convenient meal than cooking a steak? Or is it simply a way to keep calories low while not skimping on necessary protein?
Is there any difference in the kinds of protein shakes? Whey/ Cre..t..ne (I don't know how to spell it)? Is there a most effective time to take it? (before/after a workout? before bed?)
this is the one I drink.... and it tastes good which is a HUGE bonus for me. I like the zero carb part. I mostly drink it to get in some protein which help recovery... right? about 2 years ago I research it and decided on this one but don't really remember all the reasons why I picked it.
I don't like drinking my protein. It's just my preference because it makes me feel sick. I would rather eat protein rich foods like a hard boiled egg, fish, chicken, etc. I just make more than I know I will eat in a meal and put them into individual portions. Then I usually eat protein within a hour after I've worked out.
Yesterday food b: protein shake with strawberries, 1/2 banana, cucumber and spinach s: almonds with craisins l: Talapia and green beans d: Cauliflower fried rice with onions, green pepper, snow peas, Canadian bacon.... if you haven't tried this yet, do it! SO,SO,SO Yummy and really filling.
Thursday Food B-protein shake S-cheese stick, slice of apple with peanutbutter L-mixed nuts, beef jerky,dried coconut S-protein shake D-stir fry veggies with grilled steak S-mixed nuts, cheese stick *I know it's a lot...I felt a bit out of control- Friday will be better I know it!
