There is no way I could Tempo anything but 1 on the CNTC,

Stretch 90 sec each

Quad, Ham, Oblique (twist), Glute, Dn Dog (These r kinda scarey)




The toughest thing about the workout is all the counting and every thing

I guess I will adjust to it being 2nd nature…
(But, Damn P-funk again anyway, putting all these ideas in my head)

Hey MM -

Smart move trying to implement some of the things P-Funk does....So - are you looking to get faster or stronger or leaner ???

All of the above would be nice - eh ??

Yes, the training that GG & P are doing right now sounds like fun...
I even put a call in to my olympic lift guru gal pal...
So I can get some power training help when I get a little stronger

Right now I'm just using P's super anal tempo control,
to get a burn from my WO's without using heavy weight...
(and it works)

The temp= x/x/x [xx] are the key areas to watch
on these WO's, for the next couple weeks

I have 3-4 weeks to build slowly back up, in which,
my goal is to put the training, and the diet under a microscope

I would like to note
I have not buckled down my training and diet like this,
since 1998-99!?!?

Not too happy about skipping the post WO shake...
But I was so blasted, It didn't even occur to me to do
anything but take a shower...

No excuses... Must consume... Do not forget...

hey MM, how are those egg beaters? I stopped by the grocery store today for some eggs and i saw the egg beaters and was wondering if they are any good? Are they similar to egg whites? Is it easier to make and quicker than boiling the eggs? Give me the scoop.

Well they come in a carton, so unless you have an egg steamer or poacher you are SOL (no hardboil)

they supposedly have more cals than whites, but are lower in Cholest
than whole eggs...

The reason I am using them is that real eggs really upset my system

I don't know if you've noticed I only eat 4 per day, which is strictly
small time in these circles...

I am hoping to adapt my system to more, but only time will tell...

I haven't even finished Crunching down #'s on this diet yet

posted the 3's for some of the food I have processed here...

Egg beaters are good for scrambled eggs or omelets. They are not the same as egg whites and have a different taste. I prefer egg beaters over the whites. You can't hard boil egg beaters since it's liquid. Egg beaters can also be used in a recipe in place of eggs.
