Teppanyaki!

NO BUTTER PLEASE! Every time I eat at a Teppanyaki place I always inform the chef, no butter please and be light on the oil. It's great if they don't use oil if they can. This place didn't need oil for the meat. So, it was awesome.

Teppanyaki places tend to always serve tofu for their veggies. Unfortunately, with Endometriosis, we can't have tofu. So I just gave mine away to those eating with me. Usually a Sunday dinner will be light since it's rest day, but this was a company dinner so got stuck with Teppanyaki.

Double Saturday!

Usually on Saturdays I run a 5k if there is one. Most of the time there is, but not during summertime. Today, I ran a 5k at 6am. I haven't ran in awhile due to being sick and traveling. I clocked the race at 25min 52sec. 30 seconds off from my PR. I don't think I'll beat it soon, I don't want to focus much on running too much as it makes my muscles smaller.

What I love of Saturdays is I'm free to do a second workout in the afternoon. Ended up doing P90X PLUS Upper Body and P90X2 Ab Ripper.

Hint: Get a tan to see the muscles more, darker skin defines the muscle lines more making it look bigger as well. I'm due for a tan.

WarmUp before a 5k

Usually Fridays are my days to do Yoga before a 5k. But figured do something different. I ended up doing CrossFit today. I told my CrossFit trainer I'm running a 5k tomorrow morning, so my WOD had to be very light. I was able to do today's workout at 8 min 47 sec.

4 rounds each
1) 15 burpees
2) 30 fast speed jump ropes
3) 100m rollers

P90X Wednesday

Today I woke up sore as hell, not with yesterday's workout. But from Monday's super crunches. It's always two days after a workout where I feel the pain. My abs and core total soreness indeed. Any sneeze, cough, or laugh really pained it. Feels great! Instead of doing Crossfit today I went ahead and P90X Shoulders and Arms. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to do ab ripper for the first time, my core just wouldn't even make me make a first move of it. Today's P90X workout was great, it's been awhile I've done it since I've been working on P90X2 lately versus the regular P90X. Can't wait till my core feels better so I can focus on other workouts.

Tabada

So, I've started Crossfit a few weeks ago. But had a break for two weeks from it due to traveling and helping a friend for a weekend. Today I was introduced to "Tabada" of Crossfit. Basically, it was three different workouts to do. You do one workout at a time for four minutes, within those four minutes you do the workout for 20 seconds then have a 10 second break and do it over and over till the four minutes end. After four minutes, switch to the other workout and do the same thing over again. While on break, someone else will log your workout for those 20 seconds

Here today's Tabada and log of my results: (As you can see I started to die out in the end of my workout which is natural).
