Insanity, Day 6: Plyometrics

Food: banana, apple, asian pear, peach, brown rice/veggies/tofu in soy-based sauce (big portion :( ), a few handfuls of nuts

Plyometrics again today. Way not as bad as the first time. I already am lasting through the work outs longer (including the crazy warm-ups!). Surprise surprise, the hard exercises for me are the mountain climber (high!! freakin!! knees!!) and still the get down, push back, 4 push ups, run it out, feet in, back up, back down. Disappointed to say that by the third round of this circuit, I did horribly in the basketball shots. I also don't know if I'm doing the sit up push up things correctly.. can't tell if my butt is sticking up or not. One horrible thing is that when I'm on the floor doing the various exercises my wrists start to hurt. I sweat a lot.

Going to make veggie juice and drink more water. Definitely didn't drink enough water.. Not sure if I'm up to making something to eat. Maybe some fruit and a piece of chocolate :) As a side note, I'll admit, the number on the scale this morning discouraged me. But my waist isn't bigger (in fact it's a bit smaller) so I should just attribute it to normal weight fluctuation.

Tomorrow: REST DAY! Thank goodness. Eating at night makes me feel bloated.. that is the problem with working out at night, but I can't work out at 4am so 6pm is my only choice. Ideally I would work out in the afternoon so my last meal would be before 6. Currently I finish eating at 8-8:30 and sleep at 9-9:30. I think I will get some protein powder and blend it with some frozen fruit to make smoothies for dinner instead of something too heavy like I have been eating in this week. The non-chicken chicken nuggets aren't heavy per se, but they are indeed breaded.

This morn..

Boooo.. I think I gained weight. Food/muscle weight?

119.4 lbs
26 1/8" waist
