Day 16 on The 4-Hour Body Plan

I feel back on track today. I had let my exercise slip (for me) and I think that was part of my issue with feeling frustrated/cranky. My workouts probably won't match up with the book's workouts, but I NEED my workouts. I don't own kettlebells and am not going to buy or make any right now, so I am back to my normal workout routine. I will incorporate his suggestions as much as I can (like the 5/5 cadence, etc). I'm running and doing my workout/weights DVDs. It works for me. I am however sticking diligently to the diet and diet related suggestions in the book. That was always my main focus of this experiment anyway.


Today:
Up at 7 am and had .5 L ice water. Then the supplements. Then breakfast.
1 cup All Whites with sauteed onion, mushrooms, roma tomato, and black beans. Sprinkled with a little garlic salt. Was very good.
Supplements, then lunch was 6.2 oz chicken breast with black beans and a roma tomato sprinkled with garlic salt and italian seasoning.
Post run I had a muscle milk.
Supplements, then dinner was 4 oz roasted chicken with broccoli, cauliflower, and black beans with a little butter.


I have decided to track my nutrient intake for this week, just curious where I am at with this plan. Today:
Calories: 1211
Protein: 134
Fat: 33
Carbs: 96
Fiber: 29


3 liters of water.
Workout was speed work at the track. Did 400 meter repeats. 2 miles total. Felt awesome! Burned 350 calories (via my Polar HR monitor)

  1. Great work! That muscle milk looks good. I'm turning into a sucker for those kinds of "shakes." They get the sweet out of my cravings and fill me up. Win-win!!!!
