■ Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds,
some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep
intake to levels that will support exercise but
not body fat.
■ Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean,
squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly,
master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups,
dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to
handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds.
Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast.
■ Five or six days per week mix these elements
in as many combinations and patterns
as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy.
Keep workouts short and intense.
■ Regularly learn and play new sports.
So.. this video is pretty interesting. I checked the website he’s referring to and looked up 2 products I use on a regular basis: Savonnerie Olivier (very VERY good) and Merle Norman (not so good)

ok, so I wanted to go swimming at noon, but the pool was closed. So I thought, why not go for a run? that’ll loosen me up. aaaahhh, NEGATIVE!
The first km was ” O . K “… but i stopped to stretch out my calf and shins because they felt like they were cramping a little. I thought it’s just a little soreness, I’ll run through it. aaaaaahhh, again, neh-neh!
After an extra 100m, I decided to turn around. Running was physically unbearable. My legs were just going in spasm. haha. Even walking was gross.
so maybe i’m a little sore from that burpee mile after all, lol.
Reid and I waited for our vaccine for 4 hours and ended at 8pm so I missed class.
Janine – Thanks for the your WOD “Janine”….it really sucked!
It took me more than 15 minutes to recover from it…:S
