Carlos Tapia, are you ready to dominate Hooverball?
Today was a good one! 16 lb PR on the weighted pullup. Survived the Wobble….not very impressive timewise, but completed it. Rope climbs were much improved today over last Saturday – actually used my legs some today.
Time to beat on the Wobble: 9:59 – by drop-in Robbie. Nice work, Robbie!
Lis, 10:22am and 44g of protein so far (chicken sausage and greek yogurt). Off to a good start!
NICE Scott… now the add'l challenge. Make sure you're DIGESTING all that protein. Chew your food thoroughly, limit fluid intake w meals, and try a digestive enzyme or some apple cider vinegar w meals.
ALSO – I like the Greek yogurt addition. For anyone trying to put on mass, if you aren't super sensitive to dairy you can definitely work some of that in… as well as starchy veggies, maybe some quinoa and rice.
Oh Hell yes! All we need now is Tirzah White to join in and we'll be set!
Nice John! What was your weight on the pullups?
Ha! I'm going to hit that sucka (PR Bell) 3 times today for all my PRs this week!
Thanks, Carlos… 71 lbs (45 lb vest and 26 lb KB).
any specific suggestions on enzymes Lis? Any permission to eat rice and quinoa?? YES!!! Not that I didn't before, just always felt like it was cheating!
Tirzah is working Sunday at the pretty new lululemon howell mill store. We have to talk her into visiting us at the gym one day next week though!
Big props to James S on getting his first rope climb this AM too! That was awesome to watch… so tired at the end of that chipper, yet so determined. Bad ass!
I should probably be able to come through Monday morning Lis Saunders 😉
I like it! Great work Scott! Digestive enzymes work! Lis can you help put me on a specific diet?
Scott, get Now Foods Super Enzymes. Drew, based on your goals: eat 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight, keep carbs below 100g a day (I wouldn't recommend super low carb along w your training), no fruit (1 piece a day max) NO SUGAR, drink clear liquor instead of beer, get 8 hours of sleep a night in a DARK room
Yesssssssss, Tirzah! So excited for you to come back
If I eat 4 meals a day, would that be too much protein per meal or should I break it up to 5 meals?
