Thursdays are usually my active recovery days, but I woke up this morning feeling like I needed to work a little harder. I did a 2k row earlier this week and was very upset at my time--over a minute off my PR--so a little more time breathing today was needed. This workout struck a good balance of pace, working my technique and at the end, some mental toughness.
Breakfast was coffee with two tbsp of Kerry grass-fed unsalted butter and Upgraded Brain Octane. So after training, coffee and a hot shower my blood pressure was...
Not bad. My systolic went down a few points a few hours after working out. You can see my pulse is still pretty jacked from the intervals.
I'm not totally consumed with the number on the scale, but to lose body fat, I will have to lose some weight. Ideally, I'd like to be 180lbs, but this morning I found how far I have to go.
Not a terrible starting point, but definitely some work to do.
Diet has been pretty great all day and I feel energized and relatively sated. My lunch was leftover salmon and sautéed broccoli which I didn't heat up, but will next time.
