I can't remember where I was with logging the nutrition but last night, JJ and I went to David Burke's Primehouse for restaurant week and it was AMAZING and worth the cheat!
I've been eating relatively cleanly all week so this was a nice reward.
We started with the Kobe beef sashimi served on Himalayan salt blocks. The thing came with this delicious mayo and crustry bread, all of which I ate. Then they gave us this lovely cheesy flaky bread pudding looking things... omg, I ate it with the delicious butter accompaniment. I guess if I'm cheating, this is going all out.
For our entree, I had the "Burker" which uses 40 day aged beef. JJ upgraded his steak to the 55 day dry aged steak and it is honestly one of the best pieces of steak I've ever had. I'm totally sold on the dry age!
Yesterday, I WODed one last one above Lalo's at 6am:
Press 43-51-57(8) (being off a few weeks and this felt weak but nice to be back at it!)
2 min double unders: 63 (there were a few 2s and 3s in there... need to be more patient)
Tabata pullups: 10+4+2+4+3+3+2+2=30 (not bad for a first time at unbanded! Hands hurt)
Handstand negatives: 10 (felt good... taped wrist)
Handstand holds (as free as possible): 5 (I got up at least once without the wall!... before falling over haha)
Woke up this morning with a super sore throat and decided to skip the 9am that JJ went to. Really hope I'm not getting sick!

A little less pain in the hip, a little more pain in the wrist...
I might just be minor-injury-prone or something... can't I go a week without pulling/hurting something? People at work always think they're joking when they ask me "what did you hurt while doing crossfit today"...
Wrist hurts today... either laptop keyboard or handstands maybe. I got an ergonomic keyboard today so hopefully that problem will resolve itself.
Nice to be able to do a WOD today even though I still can't do much with the hip.
This morning, I did yesterday's strength and today's WOD.
Press 5-5-5+: 43-49-56 (9). Felt solid.
15 Handstand negatives: these were kind of fun after you get over falling on your head. Nice to know that I can at least do the negatives on one ab mat.
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1 of HPC @ 63# and Ring dips.
HPCs were fast and felt good. Ring dips were pretty good too. Broke once in each of the 8, 7, 6, and 5 rounds.
Worked on some kipping pullups 5x5.
I'm back on the swing as to whether I should compete at Sectionals or not. I know I'm not training very hard and I don't really have much time to but I would love to just experience that atmosphere. If I can do a WOD un-scaled, great. If not, whatever. I'm not expecting much given the schedule... but then, the idea of competing at Sectionals still scares the hell out of me. Makes me nervous thinking about it. I might be last. I don't know. Think about it some more tomorrow... maybe the answer will just come to me (sleepy passive mode).
Pre WOD (5:30am): muscle milk light
Breakfast (8:30am): 1 of JJ's crabcakes, 1 sunnyside up egg, some veggies (zucchini, squash) with crushed almonds, 1 espresso
Mid-morning snack: handful of almonds and dried cranberries, 1 matcha green tea
Lunch (12:30pm): beef and chicken chili, roasted veggies (carrots, butternut squash, eggplant)
Mid-afternoon snack: handful of almonds and dried cranberries (I forgot paleo kit today)
Dinner (7:30pm): From Townhouse (work meal) - seared ahi tuna (covered in crushed peppercorns and salt), broccolini (I tasted butter)
