So Day 25 gave us a day of indulgences where we could go off the program and enjoy something that would not be considered part of the program. I saved that up for today, and heading out to a restaurant then off to a birthday party after that. Rather than digging into a pizza or cake, I m going to eat what I can off the menu (with condiments) and try to stick as close to the program as possible but without looking like a weirdo asking for all my seasonings / sauces etc on the side - and add a few glasses of wine to that. I am sure a couple of glasses will get me plastered, finally... i'm a cheap date for anyone wanting to take me out!
Hit the gym for a bit last night. It really wipes me out, think I have been 3 times now since starting PCP and added swimming to the mix last 2 times. Once I get home after that pretty much just pass out on the floor with little to no energy to put together something tasty, so end up eating raw veggies and whatever fish or meat I can find rather than trying to get creative and making something half decent.
Enjoying the new sets of workouts, they seem to take a lot less time than the previous, which is good - especially as GW holidays are over and back to the grind in the office (Pull ups still a no go...not even 1!)
Wondering how my knees will hold with the duck walks and frog jumps...though. So far so good, hoping the gradual increase in load will stop me from blowing them out so easy which seems to happen when I play a game of basketball or futsal putting me in a little pain for 2-3 days.
Well, off to dinner! Looking forward to eating something different and not counting or weighing my food. Will update how I go tomorrow, see how much I indulge!
Will be interesting on the scales on Friday or Saturday. Haven't changed weight much at all but think I am visibly putting muscle on specifically around the shoulders, back and arms, see if the pics show this later in the week.
Yes, and the muscles you put on will burrrrn calories for you to drink more in the future. But!
