11 June

Run 5K @ 29:10 ( 5:49 pace )
Low aerobic HR zone run 2K @ 17:48 ( 8:53 pace )

Fkn heat wave hit us too early this year. Last night it was T+DI 156 (88+68) at 11pm for christ's sake!
Had to break the run, last year i didn't break runs until late July that TDI was 165, previous years i would endure/fight the heat and start breaking runs around early July.

Summer heat is here. Still mild, last night T+DI was 140 (80+60). It's not that much but body is not used to it.

tell me about it  :-[

Right, saw your log entry, was like dejavu. Our weathers are extremely similar/synced. Very logical since we are at the same latitude but still feels crazy since we are half a planet away in longitude.



So, to make sure I have fruit, I just blend up a big smoothy every day with approx the following ingredients: 1 banana, lots of frozen berries, greek yogurt, protein powder, and creatine. I hate eating a proper meal in the morning, but this is easy for me to consume and helps me hit a lot of dietary bases, and I don't have to worry about my default daily fruit going off.

That's a nice trick. I'm trying to convince/challenge me to eat them raw though. I have plenty of access in high quality fresh fruit, its a shame i don't eat them.
Still failing so far, ate one banana and 1 apple the entire week lol



Damn log fell back, let's catch up

Thans for the insight guys. Yeah i guess that if nutients/kcals are the same it won't make a real difference.
FWIW, i don't like breakfast, so im close to 14/10 IF even when i don't try to. So i think ill stick to that for the whatever ketones fat-burning voodoo hype shit. Ill just actively try to make the gap bigger, bring it closer to 16/8 or more.
What's the deal with fruits and veggies though? You mean replace carbs with them, or just make sure you have them too, for the vitamins & fibers?



30 May

Low aerobic HR zone run 7K @ 50:55 ( 7:16 pace )

Back to low 7s pace, despite legs still being sore & tired. Great.

Question to everyone, but without turning it to a 5 pages flame war :
Best diet choice for re-composition : Intermittent fasting / 4-5 spread meals / doesn't really matter ( supposing all choices have the same kcals balance and nutrients) ?

Run 7.5K @ 43:52 ( 5:51 pace )

Slow again but a little better feel. Legs still tight/sore/tired, i guess they will need some time to adapt to lifting 2*week and running.

Run 7.5K @ 44:05 ( 5:52 pace )

Horrible run. A whole 30''/km slower than last week.
Legs were still tight/sore from deadlifts 3 days ago.
Also TDI is here, last night it was 22'C / 80% humidity. It's not that bad but body wasn't ready.

EZ BAR CURL : 4x10 @ 35 kg

Awful workout. Got the reps and weights i was aiming but was feeling soooo weak and bored.
Not even sure if i had both before workout or just one of them which caused the other.
