Cellar Yeti Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 4-21-133.3 mile run, 32 minutes Very hungry lately; especially after work and exercise. I'm eating a pot of rice and dolmas now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Forklift Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 What are 'dolmas'? Never heard of them. Nice running btw, good speed there. How was your weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellar Yeti Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 Not really, lol. I am really slow as I get heavier and heavier and it's so hard to breathe at this elevation. Dolmas is stuffed grape leaves; they are so freaking good. My weekend was good, just very busy between training, eating/cooking, work, and keeping the house up. It seems like eating 4,000+kcal in itself is a full time job.

Mini Forklift Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I'm good thanks. Stuffed grape leaves? Can't say I have ever come across them but I wouldn't mind trying them, sound pretty interesting. What are they stuffed with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellar Yeti Posted April 23, 2013 Author Share Posted April 23, 2013 They are stuffed with brown rice. IDK if you have Whole Foods there but they have them; also any health food store would have them either in the deli case or in cans/jars, sometimes in the olive bar. They are Mediterranean so look in that area. You could also make them; but I tend to be lazy. =P Dolmas with some garlic hummus and home made pita chips from flour tortillas, and a big bowl of olives. Mmm, MM!

Words cannot describe my feelings; the joy to be able to train and sculpt my body and mind is a privilege I hold high. I do not need to force myself to train, I look forward to each session. With how well I have gotten to know my body, my nutritional and training regime, and my supplements I am very happy to say I do not need to take a rest week every 6 weeks (in most circumstances; I.E. an injury) I am coming up on 6 weeks of training on the 26th and have nearly no signs of over training or inuries. I attribute this to my on off on off schedule mostly, also I am not opposed to taking an extra rest day every two or three weeks. With that said I will pay close attention to my body in these last days of training to get my training/rest schedule just right. I will be taking two days off because of some training I have for work, then finishing up this circuit and completing one more A/B/C circuit and taking a rest week I think.

Cellar Yeti Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 4-26-131.5 mile fasted walk. I had a training seminar today so I could only manage the fasted walk there. I will go for a long 1hr walk later fed. Extra day of rest today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cellar Yeti Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 I thought I was going to start a new circuit today and get one more done before a rest but I ran into a little issue. It seems that even 1 week later my chest is still fried, I started my warm ups and noticed my chest was a bit sore but kept going, got 186 into position and totally could not move it one little bit. This means my body has built up enough workload on healing that my recovery time is tanked. I got the signal, time for a week off. I wanted to plan my rest week around mothers day since I am going to San Diego but this just is not going to work. See you in a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cellar Yeti Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 5-1-133.3 mile 63 minute walk. Chest is still sore, didn't sleep well last night so a nap is in order. Been eating everything in sight so I'll probably go buy some snacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cellar Yeti Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 5-3-13Worked for 3 hrs fasted. Going to prime myself to break rest tomorrow with a jog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellar Yeti Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 5-4-133.6 mile run, 40 minutes Stopped for 3 and 1 minute to walk and let my knee unwind. Wasn't winded but my knee tightened up and backing off seems to help tremendously for some reason. I'll probably stop here for a few weeks and try and get my 'rest' interval to a very slow jog for 3 min like I have with previous increases. Feeling pretty good to begin lifting tomorrow.

Struggled immensely with 186. My chest was still not totally adapted and coupled with the rest week back blues I was only able to manage two reps. I'll just keep slogging at it; when my body is ready it will grow. I am positive my diet and rest is spot on. Push press needs to be worked on form wise. It's awkward with DBs so I need to sort something out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cellar Yeti Posted May 6, 2013 Author Share Posted May 6, 2013 5-6-13Rest today. I didn't even jog/take a walk cause it's raining. I'm just sitting on my ass and going for tacos later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy that I got my run time back down without walking or slowing down at all! I am now running every off day for 3 off days then taking the 4th rest day for complete rest, save for a 60 min walk. I'll do abs every running day. I'm keeping my mileage around 8-10 miles a week. All the research I have read states testosterone levels start to drop when you get into that endurance zone above 10 miles a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
