We'll my post today was going to be about I was on a streak this week with working out. I made the "mistake" of commiting to Penelope I would work out with her daily and she will NOT let me off the hook. So everyday this week so far she and I have done a workout in the backyard (Nathaniel half does it with us). She has a workout plan for us and everything.
Unfortunately last night at the end of the workout she was racing Nathaniel with bear crawls and crab walks and landed on her hand wrong and broke her finger. She was in a lot of pain at first (and we spent several hours at urgent care waiting for X-rays etc) but by the end of the night she was just feeling sad that she's out of commission for the next 4-6 weeks. Her day to day activities are all about being active (Jiu Jitsu, biking, rollerblading, playing lots of sports at the park with friends) as well as playing the piano daily. She's pretty bummed that she's going to have to put all that on hold for a while. Butt we'll follow up with an Orthopedist and hopefully get more clear answers on what she can and can't do.
I am guessing however she's not gonna let me off the hook with workouts! 😜 So you better join me today and get a workout in!!
Reminder I will Livestream in Locals for supporters Friday at 8pm EST
Happy Saturday! I hope you are all doing well. I know some people in the group have had some recent tough news for themselves or family members. It really puts the day to day issues we face into perspective, and reminds me to just focus on doing the best I can to be as healthy as possible. To those who are having a hard time, we are all here for you and sending you some prayers and support. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Just focus today on doing the best you can and remember that food isn't going to bring you the comfort you are looking for.
Here is a little video of Penelopes performance from her piano recital l last night, she's been taking lessons for about a year and a half. 🎹🤍🖤
*Livestream Monday night at 4pm pst/7pm est
Thinking about the year ahead can be overwhelming when it comes to goal setting. For some people, like me, short term goals can be much more motivating. Right now it's beast mode through the Meetup this Saturday. That said, I do still have long term goals for the year. Staying carnivore is just a given now as it's my life already so I have to dive a little deeper for me. I'd like to stay in the same weight range but lower my body fat a bit. Gain some muscle mass in short. Gym at least 4 times a week and beast mode at the same time is my recipe.
Steak video for interest. 🤪
Do you do better with short or long term goals?
So sorry guys, my 2 1/2 hour drive home from the cabin is turning into a 5+ hour drive home so I am not going to make it in time to Livestream tonight. I'll post the link for the Dr Berry Livestream for tomorrow when I know it. I'll catch up on posts here when I get home if you have any questions.
Happy Thursday! I had so much fun reading everybody's drink routines yesterday, thanks for sharing. It's just cool to see how everybody does things a little bit differently.
I am flying home this afternoon! 🙌🏼 It's been a great trip but very excited to get home and see the family. Shockingly I woke up extra early everyday this week and did a 2 mile walk/run before I got ready for work. This is definitely the most consistent I've ever been with exercise in my life and it's really cool to see my endurance improving and feel myself getting stronger. I want to start doing some weightlifting as well, that's the next layer I know I need.
If I can finally find an exercise routine I can stick to, then you can too! How are you moving for body today?
