Eating Raw
Posted By Dr. Wendy On 22nd May 2007 @ 08:40 In Diet | No Comments
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.
