Yeah! I am so happy on many counts today. Yesterday was my 30th day and I finished strong with a big helping of spaghetti squash with marinara meat sauce. yummo!
At CrossFit our WOD was CrossFit Total. Basically it is max back squats, strict press and deadlift. Your total is the max out of each movement (5 tries each). While my strict press was seriously lacking (my shoulder was killing me)- I had a 17 pound PR on both my back squat and deadlift! I didn't even realize how big my back squat PR was because I was so focused on my dead lift. See, I had a goal up on the goal board at the box- 200 lb dead lift by March. When they told me I pulled 205 I was over the moon happy.
Two Buck Club Baby!!
I really do think doing the Whole 30 helped me improve my strength and endurance which then lead to my awesome PRs. I lost 5 pounds- I thought maybe it would be more but I have been hitting the gym hard and I swear my biceps are bigger, no joke. The important thing is that I feel better, my clothes fit me again (in some cases are even loose), I am sleeping well, my skin looks great, no more indigestion, I have more energy and I feel HAPPY.
Am I going to go crazy and dive into a pizza head first? No! I plan to stay the course. I will include paleo treats like the bacon chocolate chips a friend gave me the recipe for. I still have more goals to reach for- no stopping me now. =)
