300aDay Challenge
100 air squats
100 push ups
100 sit ups
Every day. Can be in any combination, can be spread out over the day.
This is about accumulating the volume, doing it right, developing muscle memory and endurance.

Started these early in the day. Sets of 4x 25 at a time. 

Squat Club
Basic guideline, squat something every day.
No volume rules, no weight rules, just do it right.

So so, tight today. Taking the time to stretch pigeon again, some crow work. I do love Tabata, but the next day can be a good reminder of the work!

Snatch 3x2 - 55, 75
Clean & Jerk - 75, 95
Floor Press - 1x20 @75# - that was all I had today ...

3 RNDs

50M Bear Crawl
50M Walking lunges w/50# sandbag

That just about did me in. Got out of the car an hour later and knew I was in a bit of trouble. Fluids, food, some simple yoga and an early bedtime ;).

You  just keep pushing. You just keep pushing. 

I made every mistake that could be made. 

But I just kept pushing.

Just a little flusher today. I am really feeling yesterdays work. Hello core, stick to serious, if I laugh too much I just might fall over today. I went with a bit more intensity on the Battling ropes and think that was the culprit. So, my intention for today was to sweat a little and get some overall body movement.

Meditation
The nature of the mind and its ideas.

Food nugs
Not really feeling the hunger today. Oops, I might have said that out loud :)! No real lifts today so keeping it in the 'control' range. I am way under any measure, but will just take it and move along.

Basics:
Eggs. Simple.
Water, and should be more water, but ... enjoyed my coffee + during coaching hours.
Just not feeling a post work nibble and no pwod necessary, just hydration.
Grapefruit. Juicy and ripe. Simple.
Almond butter w/cream & a very melted Sees chocolate (sorry Nutty-fresh! it was in the bag)
Garlic w/cajun spiced chicken breast over sliced and lightly sautéed heirloom tomato. Simple.
