Sunday (2/3 of Fight Gone Bad WOD)

Breakfast (8:30 AM):

Smoothie
1 cup water
1 scoop Whey Protein Powder
1 cup Mixed Berries
1 cup Blueberries
1/4 cup Orange Juice
12 g Macadamia Nuts

Workout (24 Hr Fitness, Altadena):

Was supposed to be "Fight Gone Bad", but several things sabotaged it: a) time constraints - I had to teach a student a one hour make up lesson in Azusa at 10:30, which necessitated me cutting the workout short (2 rounds into 3 total rounds), b) the WOD calls for a 20 lb Medicine Ball, but, of course, the Globo-gym's heaviest Med Ball was a 10 lb-er, and c) the C2 Row machine was downstairs, meaning I had a not-inconsiderable break before that exercise (I paused the stopwatch), skewing my #'s in my favor. Anyway, here's the workout:

"Fight Gone Bad!"

Three rounds of:
Wall-ball, 20 pound ball, 10 ft target (Reps)
Sumo deadlift high-pull, 75 pounds (Reps)
Box Jump, 20" box (Reps)
Push-press, 75 pounds (Reps)
Row (Calories)

In this workout you move from each of five stations after a minute.The clock does not reset or stop between exercises. This is a five-minute round from which a one-minute break is allowed before repeating. On call of "rotate", the athletes must move to next station immediately for best score. One point is given for each rep, except on the rower where each calorie is one point.

Here's a video of Wall Balls:


After teaching, I went to my parents' house and tried to eat as Zone as possible, but that proved futile as my Mom kept bringing out cupcakes and cookies and the like. I still kept it to a minimum.

Lunch (at Mom & Dad's, 1:00 PM):
1 bowl of Bean, Rice & Vegetable Stew
1 large Green Salad
Water

After Lunch Snack (2:00 PM):
1 small cupcake
1 small cookie
Coffee

Dinner (9:00 PM):
6 oz. Salmon, baked
1 Navel Orange
1 Braeburn Apple
Water
