Morning fasted #elliptical #workout
2023 Chicago BJJ Championships are happening this Saturday. I have one GI opponent and another no-gi in my rank/age/weight bracket.
Now, note to self: don't get injured in practice like last time!
Intermittent fasting and morning cardio daily for the next 2 weeks - I need to loose 3 lbs before my #jiujitsu competition March 4th to make the 190lbs weight class.
Early afternoon fasted run on a treadmill. And now it's time to break the fast and eat some goodies.
Some treadmilling and mobility work this morning. I still have a little cold so keeping it light.
Had a fat-burning #threadmil run for breakfast this morning, and will try lunchtime #jiujitsu in a fasted state as well. Then eat like a king until 7pm.
Workout
Yesterday: mobility, stretching, and treadmill 25 mins
Today: Madcow 5x5 Day 1
I bumped the weights on all major lifts this week a tiny bit, progress ;)
Holy cow, laying down to relax and doing some deep slow breathing exercise really works. At least my Garmin watch thinks so. Stress went down from 100% to resting sleep level. Trying to continue deep slow breathing as I work now.
