Eating Raw

Eating raw is so forgiving.  If I haven’t eaten enough during the day and I come home famished I can eat all I want and not worry about putting the pounds back on.  There is no way I can eat enough cucumbers to equal the amount of calories in a steak.  I am making sure I am getting a wide variety of vegies, all colors of the rainbow.  I supplement with nuts to get more protein.  If my day is extremely busy and I am beginning to fade I will us a scoop of Jay Robb protein powder and a scoop of greens.  I realize this isn’t raw but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

My kettlebell training is going great.  I have been doing more swings with the 24kg.  I alternate between two handed, one handed and alternating.   Last nights routine was 500 swings with the 24 kg, jump rope 500 times, clean with the 20 kg 8 times and high pull with 20 kg 8 times.  I did the cleans and high pulls four times.  It was a short work out but I had minimal rest period.  I love that endorphin rush.  My class last night did swing-catch-squat x 10, snatch-lunge x 5, figure 8- 5 each direction, and clean-press x 5.  They did this routine 4 times. 

 I have about 20-30 minutes each night for my routine.  I work long hours between my chiropractic practice and teaching kettlebells so my workouts need to be quick and effective.
