Jess and I got back last night from Arizona where it was a topsy three day non-Paleo bender. For the past three months, my morning weight average is 190. In these last three days, we went to sleep always past midnight after sitting way too close to a big screen TV. Our meals all included steak, turkey, or some other kind of protein but everything else was typically choices we avoided. Now that I think about it, it wasn’t really a bender. This is probably the lifestyle other people follow everyday.

Morning weight today, 196.

Banana Split Cream Cake – family recipe. Not Paleo.

In-N-Out burger joint. Always packed! If you’ve never been to one, you have got to try it once. Order it “Protein Style” , no cheese or sauce, if you are looking for the Paleo option. Sorry, they are not in Portland.

Warm-up:

1) 3-4 min jump rope work

2) 2 rounds:
10 Overhead squats
10 Pushups
10 situps
10 kip swings or pullups

3) Pick one:
3 min handstand practice
3 min muscle up work
3 x 5 L-pullups
3 min L-sit work

Workout:

1) Front Squat 1-3-1-3 Singles should be heavy, but not 1RM attempts. Decrease wt. for triples, but try for a PR 3RM.
While resting b/t sets, perform 1-2 no ft rope climbs.

2) Push Press 5-5-5 Try to increase weight from last week.

Mobility:

Elbow rotations
Wrist pushups x 10
Finger “flange” pushups x 10 + 10 sec hold
Prone scorpions

I was about +3, I was averaging about 211 and was 214 this morning…I only really deviated two meals, Christmas Eve and Christmas night but went big on both (first time in awhile)…about 1.5lbs of beef tenderloin, twice baked potatoes, lots of dip/crackers pre-dinner, tons of deserrt..then a big mexican feast the next night, nothing paleo..oh and a lot of wine and beer.

I’m traveling the next couple weeks so it will be tough but I’m back on it as best I can..

Nice. I do love In-n-Out. I always try to hit them up when i am in California. Wish they had them in PDX, the protein style is perfect quick paleo snack.

That banana cake looks good.

Yeah…what’s up with the photo of the banana cake? I safely navigated past food disasters all weekend and now I suddenly want banana cake.

The in and out reminds me of Aromas. On the positive side of indulging in sinful, delicious foods is that we can all bounce back to eating good again. Eating delicious junk is not part of our normal eating habits. So…if you are being too hard on yourself, stop.
From xmas there was this huge plate of cookies and fudge. Yesterday I had to just toss the whole damn plate in the garbage. I saved 4 cookies in a zip lock bag though.
