Was probably a little too arrogant toward the rope and the workout in yesterday's post and got my arse absolutely handed to me this morning. Bravado replaced by humility, agility by clumsiness, and strength by failure. After going 4 days without trippin on the rope - trips at 622, 1089 and 1296. After crushing the pistol/creep combo earlier in the week, I collapsed on the 36th step of set 4 - I could utterly not stand up for about 20 sec. Bravado on the bicycle? - dismantled 30 seconds in on set 3 - hip flexors just would not cooperate, I did manage to go back for a 4th set which ended in failure well before 40 sec. Advantage: PCP. I guess so go the ebbs and flows of the project.
Was granted an involuntary partial egg forbearance when out for a business dinner last evening. Ordered two poached egg whites (obviously not on the dinner menu) and was denied, so I went with the tuna salad, which happened to come with one hard-boiled egg (didn't know this when i ordered, or i would have asked for an extra one. Ate about 30-40gr of tuna and called (figured it was better to eat a little too much protein than too little?) it dinner. Kept the salad for an hour and finished the tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers as the evening snack and called it a night. Eating out is much more difficult than it used to be, but I am enjoying the results.
Morning run, then on a plane bound for edo tomorrow - am really curious to see what next week's 'real pcp starts today' mail will have for in store for us...bacon perhaps?
Although, only three trips is still great! Sounds like you're really pushing your body and you look great. Also, nice way to make compromises on the road!
ReplyDeleteI'll send people who complain of having to have business meals to this post. Great work arounds man! You're going to love it when the real PCP starts!
ReplyDeleteDid someone say bacon? Hmmmm, bacon. Way to stay the course dude. Definitely comes and goes on the workout front, if every day was easy then you'd probably have Patrick telling you that you are doing something wrong.
ReplyDeleteWas telling my girlfriend last night that it must be tough being on the road so often. Way to stay strong man!I go on business next week and its going to be 100 percent entertainment, hopefully can stay on the path...(to rip-dom)
