Holloween and "The Zone"

Halloween weekend was a blast. I don't go as hard as most but I did loosen up and had a good time. My costume sucked but its tough to compete with MANBUG!!!!!



That night went a little longer then we would have liked but it was a good time.

Saturday was the USC Tailgate. Another good time with plenty of refreshments for all.

Sunday was a recover day. I was still smoked from the shoulder day on Thursday. Then the Ducks game Sunday night. More refreshments.

I guess what I'm trying to say is ZERO gym time for me all weekend. I feel bad but not that bad.

Today I started "THE ZONE" the most important and most neglected part of my crossfiting: the diet. I have tried this before with no success. In truth the only diet I have ever been able to follow was the short time I did the Paleo diet in preperation for my first olympic triathlons.

I wont include my whole diet here but just like with the WODs this is a tool to keep my honest. I will do 17 blocks per day. If you want to know what a block is get "Enter the Zone" here.

Monday (as of 4:00pm)
meal 1: 1 block meal 6:45am
meal 2: 4 block meal 11:30 am
meal 3: 5 block meal 3:30pm

We will see how it goes.
