Day 14 cycle 2
Despite my very reluctant start I'm actually really enjoying cycle 2. Loving all the carbs and the weight training is definitely growing on me. Except the lunges. I HATE the 200 lunges on leg day with a passion, but I think I got it right by getting leg day over with as my first workout of the week...now I don't spend the week dreading it
Fasted workout:
10 mins spin HIIT
100 barbell squats (23kg)
10 min spin HIIT
200 lunges with 3kg dumbells (100 on each leg)
Post workout protein shake (peanut butter & choc with 20g honey)
B - protein oats
L - creamy peri peri chicken with pasta & broccoli
T - creamy peri peri chicken with pasta & broccoli

Day 15 cycle 2....shocked that I made it this far

B - lizis granola, yoghurt & raspberries
L - sweet chilli chicken with rice, mushrooms and onion (but no green veg...shocker!)
Post exercise - peanut butter shake with 20g manuka honey
T - chicken in a tomato, red pepper, courgette and onion sauce with pasta and a mountain of green beans to make up for lunchtime
S1&2 - 4 rice cakes & cottage cheese

I'm going for a run tomorrow night, first proper run in months (not including HIIT), and I'm a bit nervous. Wish I was going on my own...feeling a bit pressured as the person I'm going with is fast!
She knows I'm slow but I'm hoping the HIIT would have helped a bit!!

Go out your own pace -
It was fine...I'm fitter, she went slower, all was well
It was great because I'm a slow runner but last time I went for a "proper" run (ie not HIIT) was in jan and I was ridiculously slow... I barely managed 3 miles at an 11.30 pace. Today we did four miles at a 10.20 pace and it included a bit of cross country which is always slower!
So I'm v pleased

Day 18....it's Friday xx
Rest day...but went for a run as I knew I was going out for dinner and it was great! I felt great in the third mile and my splits were 10.59, 10.15, 9.40 given that I was running 11.30ish pace in Jan and haven't done any running beyond HIIT sprints once or twice a week ... super impressed with the fitness gains with HIIT and will be definitely be maintaining the regime!
B - Lizis granola, yoghurt (forgot protein shake!)
L - homemade tuna fish cakes, avocado, cottage cheese
Ex: 3.2 mile run in 33.49 (av pace 10.28, splits 10.50, 10.15, 9.40)
Post ex: forgot protein shake so had a small latte from Costa instead (!)
D - out at a lovely modern Indian restaurant, had a pomegranate martini and a vodka and soda to drink, poppadoms to start, chicken masala with rice and a side of aubergine and spinach....lush!
Not on plan but enjoyed it loads!
