DAY 19 - Legs, Back and ugghers

Wow. Can't believe it's day 19. Closing in on the end of the first month pretty fast. Today was legs, back and ugghers. That's what I'm calling abs now. Did great on the legs and while I gave the pull-ups a shot it didn't work too well so I stuck with using the bands. My shoulder does feel better today too. Heating pad and sleeping with those disposable heat pads stuck to my shoulder helped a lot. Still I took it easy. Kenpo tomorrow and rest on Sunday. And.... wow recovery week!

So what does recovery week entail?
Day 1 - Yoga
Day 2 - Core Synergistics
Day 3 - Kenpo
Day 4 - Stretch
Day 5 - Core Synergistics
Day 6 - Yoga
Day 7 - Rest or Stretch

Ok so what is Core? Let's see the book says - Stacked foot/staggered hand push-ups, Banana roll, Leaning crescent lunges, squat run, sphinx push-up, bow to boat, low lateral skaters, lunge and reach... holy crap.. there are 22 moves in this thing. So much for recovery.

Actually what they mean for recovery is to drop the weight training and work on cardio, flexibility, balance, core muscle groups, etc.

So food today -
Breakfast - Kashi oat flake cereal and protein drink
Snack - Protein bar
Lunch - spaghetti
Snack - protein drink
Dinner - fish, cauliflower, carrots, brown rice.

It was a good day! Love it!
