Theme of today has been when you don’t feel like training, go train. I had a really good day at work today. I got out and saw a bunch of important clients such as Mr. Bjorquist =). I got a lot accomplished and it was so good to see these people.
My food was back on point today. I didn’t over eat and had a great balance of foods from all of the food groups. My body reacts positively to a diet higher in lean protein, natural sugars derived from fresh fruits (also high in insoluble fibre) and vegetables. I’m not restricting anything from my diet with the exception of added refined sugars. I’m finding my blood sugar has stabilized and I’m feeling full for a much longer period. I still crave sugar from time to time but when I do feel these cravings I’ve suppressed them with drinking lots of water and adding some fresh fruit. The benefit of fresh fruit is that I’m consuming nutritious raw foods along with a lot of fibre. Great for stabilizing my gut and levelling out my blood sugar.
I didn’t feel like training this evening even though I told myself that I needed to get some in to support consistency. I was battling with my mind tonight, it telling me that I really didn’t need to as I had a great class last nigh so why not take the evening off? I didn’t listen and went downstairs to my training hall and put in some time. It wasn’t high intensity sort training but I did review what we did at class last night. I used my hanging heavy bag to feel what that strike would feel like. We obviously didn’t strike our partners in class so it was great to feel the power on the bag. I also realized the two handed part of the technique that I didn’t really notice last night. I also took some time with Da Mu Sing and worked on a part that I knew I was forgetting part of. After working through it I remembered what was missing and added it back in. In total I spent around 20 minutes but the payoff was huge in more ways than one.
