Legs and glutes are completely smoked for the week. 
Thank goodness they finally get a break and itās chest, arms/shoulders, and a little bit of core tomorrow.
Squat snatch technical work before a squat snatch strength workout. Squat snatches get harder with age. I definitely feel 40. 
Then jump rope with power snatches for the WOD.

Today was a cardio day on the treadmill. Ran 4mi straight then tried to recover in zone 2. After 4mi running it was harder to find and maintain zone 2 but i got 10min there.
Feeling accomplished and ready to take on the day

15 minutes Yoga
10 minutes Meditation
2 short walks during office
20 minutes decline walk
60 minutes Yoga class
Some rounds of Sauna
Eating balanced, high protein, basic,
no sugar, no cravings.
I got my blood results from November today. No need to take thyroid medication. All balanced. Vitamin D is still too low, rised 10 points during 10 months. I will increase to 10.000 a day and take it at noon with a meal. I asked chat gpt to further investigate my blood results. It came out that I need to take a EPA focused omega 3 (as the leveling was not ideal) and, as I already knew increase vitamin D intake. All that might lead to the symptoms I have. I am real sorry to say that these 20 mins AI conversation was more helpful then any conversation or results from a doctor. German health system is very focused on healing deseases when they are already there. Not to already stimulize smaller disbalances with supplements. The new doctor where I was, was nearly pissed that I asked for the micro nutrient measurement. Yes sorry that my insurance pays every 24 months. Sorry for taking care of my health. She even said I need to watch out for someone explaining it to me. She wonāt.
Also AI doc said I should focus more on balancing and recovery as I might be a bit perimenopause (fucker 
) which might also cause the symptoms. So I will do my yoga way again today and enjoy my peppermint tea with honey before the sauna rounds afterwards. I feel blessed having the opportunity to combine this at this place!
Much love

Officially registered for the DEKA FIT comp. in July. 
Iām also trying to see if I can still register for another comp. this Saturday which will be my first for this year. But I think the organizer will say no because itās too late already. Never hurts to ask though!

Was up early at work this morning on the back end of a 24hr, got in the gym at 4am and did some weights.
Back again for nightshift and decided not to come in early as I normally do for a workout but instead just chilled for a bit.
Plantar fasciitis is really starting to act up again, despite the fact im doing no running. Very frustrating

Then the following WOD with an 18 mins. timecap.
Finished in 15:25 ā 500m row; DL @105# (~75% of body weight); 16 inch box jumps
I can do the 20 inch box jumps but Iām always afraid of rolling off that box during a leg intensive WOD.

As the 3 intense classes I did this week still leave my muscles sore, I will do a rest day today. As my reflections was to do so. I will do so. After finishing work I will head to the hot springs where they have 8 different saunas. Take my peppermint tea with honey with me.
Tomorrow I plan to go a full body strengths training and some decline walk. Wonāt miss a shirt strech afterwards as I did last year.
Keep going
Editā¦ Cutting out sugar is making such a huge difference to my brain and my mind!
