Week 2, Day 1 - I'm hungry and ready to squat.

So yesterday was a great rest day, I did an hour of vinyasa yoga and mostly slothed around. Hips were tight even after yoga and I felt that today.

Strength:
Strict press
3x5  
last set: do max reps.

Results: 45, 55, 60 - got 8 reps
Thoughts: i decided to do grey skull for strict press in order to keep my upper body. Well I totally read the programming wrong, I was supposed to stay at the same weight and then add five pounds next week not every set (face palm). Oh well, I know for next time. 

Smolov:
Warm up sets:
2x1 95
2x1 115
2x2 120

Thoughts: Very solid. hips were tight but i still felt like my form was on point.

*KB wod:
3 rounds, complete each round unbroken
5 cleans
5 push press
5 cleans 
5 push press
100 meter gorilla walk

Results: Used two 30 lb kettle bells
Thoughts: Miserable. Seriously thought I was going to pass out. I am trying to become more confident in kettlebelling so I don't completely humiliate myself at a competition I'm doing in August. The cleans were the hardest part for me, I just don't have the proper technique.


Intake:
Breakfast: Iced coffee with protein
Lunch: Two chicken sausages with carrots and hummus
Pre-workout snack: Random protein bar I got at gas station (see above it was delicious)
Post-workout snack: Coconut water
Dinner: Uh-mazing patty melt made with bacon, avocado, munster cheese and gluten free bread with sweet potato fries
Post dinner: Greek yogurt
