Breakfast

I like doing leftovers for breakfast. They’re quick, easy, and usually filling.
- Chicken thigh with capers cooked in white wine.
- sauteed cabbage and sweet peppers

Lunch

-grapefruit
-cottage cheese with peanut butter and cinnamon
-2 pieces of homemade high protein sprouted wheat bread

Post Workout

-smoothie with a banana, 3 strawberries, vegan protein powder, and water (out of soy milk—still delicious)

Dinner

-salad with romaine, cucumber, avocado, sunflower seeds, and thyme.
-dressing: 1 tsp dijon, 1 tsp, honey, 1 tsp pmegranate molasses, 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Dessert

- cinnamon bun! (toasted)
- a few reese’s pieces

1954 cals; 43% fat/ 39% carbs/ 18% protein

I managed to get 91g of protein today but the fatty ridiculously high calorie cinnamon bun put me over the edge. I need to stop baking.

Fitness

I did my superset routine today, supersetting 3 chest exercises for 4 sets and then 3 triceps exercises for 4 sets.

Chest
Incline Dumbbell Press
Push-ups
Dumbbell Flys

Triceps
Cable Rope Pushdowns
Cable Rope Extensions
Bench Dips

Dips are practically impossible after 2 consecutive triceps exercises so I had to modify them a lot by bringing my feet closer to my body.

My legs were still intensely sore today after yesterday’s leg workout but I ran anyway. I did intervals. Man, it’s been SO long since I’ve done intervals I forgot how quickly cardio can go by!

Treadmill HIIT

400m @ 5.5mph
400m @ 7.5mph
Repeat 5 times (for 3 miles total)

It took me just over 28 minutes to get my 3 miles in and I was really cranking it in the last 400m.
