Friday is usually seen by many of you as the last workout of the week, and often the best for some of you!
Just before the weekend is a time to measure up your gains, and if you’ve stayed off alcohol all week, a good session should wait.
Let’s get over this “eating well is boring”!!! That’s absolute rubbish and you know it!
Eating healthily is really not about eating the same old stuff all the time, its really not.
If you’re struggling to make healthy eating “exciting” or other such adjectives, then theres plenty of ideas in cookbooks around the world on how to cook healthy AND interesting!! In fact, you don’t really have to buy any books if you don’t want to, although they will be handy to get out whenever you want. There are literally thousands if not millions of recipes on the internet, and most of them are free!! So there is really no excuse to eat badly, or to eat processed food out of a freezer out of your local supermarket, or to eat takeaways every night, or to eat on your way home in the local petrol station which often doubles now as a min-supermarket too!!
I’m all for having occasional treats, it keeps you sane after all, but the frequency and the quantity are key elements in the equation and you have to keep getting it right. One bar of chocolate doesn’t have to turn into two or three, your version of chocolate could well turn to green and blacks, which is famous dark chocolate made from the finest Trinitario cocoa beans for an intense taste, or so the packet says anyway!!!
This is a more guilt free way of eating chocolate, not to everyone’s taste of course but less fat and sugar, far less sugar than most chocolate in fact, which is great news in not expanding your stomach and hips of course!!!! The most guilt-free options are often valid substitutes for the more well-known brands, which are of no nutritional value at all, and definitely no help to your ttraining, the worst of both worlds then!!!
Have a great end to the week and a great weekend of training, saturday and sunday is when most people have got more time so one less excuse to worry about!!!
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay 1st full week in god knows how long.Didn’t feel up to it cos i was freezing and sniffing all day yesterday after that bloody shower had me,but give it ago today no sniffs or cold but it “P”ed down big time 🙂 JUST BLOODY SORT THIS EATING OUT AND I’LL BE AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
Well done Cyril, yeah its the eating part that is the hardest, no doubt. I hit the road this morning also, cycled 55mins, did some interval training in that time. Run yest, so I cycled 2day. Got my MP3 player working, and yes I am stupid, you dont BURN or RIP music onto the MP3 player, you SYNC it, Doh. Anyway got some decent music to burn up the dust with. Have a good weekend you all, think Scotland will beat us 2mo, only say that because of their performance last week. Could be wrong but we didn’t know how to PASS last week or play as a TEAM, so dont think they would have learnt that in a week.
failed to go cycling this morning due to my butt being to sore cos of that seat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You need to buy a GEL SEAT Cyril, much more user friendly.
