Also at this stage I'm not going to count calories. My focus will just be on what I eat rather than he quantity, just like I tell my clients to do :). Hopefully I'll start to feel that my body is just regulating what it needs anyway as it used to. Roughly my average calorie intake should be about 1800 calories plus add 300 for breastfeeding. This is for days that I train. For days that I don't I should be deducting 300. Keeping it all pretty simple for now.
Training:
Strength:
Did thrusters started at 25kg in sets of 2 and worked up to 52.5 kg for 2. Did 4 sets at 52.5kg
Metcon:
Did 5, 10, 15, 20, 20, 15, 10, 5
of plyometric push ups
box jumps 20 inch
Time: 10:45 or 11:45 not sure

Hey Tysha, do you always Snack between meals?
ReplyDeleteHey Browney, yes I always do and its something that I do deliberately. I always try to keep my body fuelled so that my body can feel confident that I'm not starving it. What happens is when you don't eat every 3-4 hours your body will hold on to body fat, not feel that it can release it. It holds onto it in case you end up not eating...which is what might of happened back in caveman times :)
ReplyDeleteBest way to think of it is this...think of your metabolism like a fire your trying to keep alight. If you were to put one big log on the fire it burns slowly, if you were to keep fuelling it with kindling it burns quicker and more efficiently. Keep feeding the fire little and often.
Ok, From what I gather with the primal/paleo lifestyles, is that the snacking between meals, keeps your body constantly producing insulin, therefore not allowing your body to use the fat stored in it. Providing you are on a High Fat/Protien Low Carb diet.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Shane can add to this?
