3 tough is enough...

3 days on of CrossFitting is a real challenge.  By the end of two days in a row of WODs, I am pretty worked depending on how challenging they were (usually very).  By the third day, I'm definately in need of a rest.  Gotta listen to the body.  But I do have Thursday "off" when I put some nutrition students through the paces with kettlebells.  That and I "missed" todays prescribed WOD of heavy back squats (1-1-1-1-1-1-1) in favor of double double tabatas with the boss.  We'll see what the bod decides.  No shame is taking that well deserved day off.  Might be easier to stick to this experiment with Zone/Paleo and Intermittent Fasting.  Not eating from 1:30pm until 4:30am is a little bit of a challenge.  Had to have a Zone Bar when I went to bed last night cuz I didn't want to bonk at PT today.  I think the power shakes before PT are helping though.  Dropping my favorite pre/post calories, chocolate soy milk to see if there is any truth to the "it increases estrogen production" rumors.  Pray for my stomach tonight...LOL.

MON 5 NOV WOD

 

4 rounds of:

400m run

2-min rest btw each round

(12:37) respectable time considering I was doing everything I could to stay with the POSE Method.  With 6 total minutes of rest, that's still a respectable 6:37 mile time which is exactly the pace I need for a 13:20 2-mile run.
