Memorial Day Workout...

What a great weekend...at least on the East Coast (VA and NC). Went to my son's track meet on Saturday...Went to my daughter's soccer tournament on Sunday...And getting ready for dawg squad this AM. So, I wanted to share our transition workout for today, Monday - Memorial Day - May 27, 2013.

This a transition workout that transitions from one 12 week progression to the next. The transitions vary in their theme. Some are high rep and some are timed.  But all are meant to break through plateaus.  We all hit those places in our physical training where things seem to stand still. This is also evident in other areas of our lives...mentally, spiritually. I think we all know the feeling. So, we use transitions to break through to the other side. So, give it a try and let me know what you think...

Let's get it done...

Process

I'm preaching the same sermon, singing the same music, telling the same story...WHEN WE REALIZE THAT WE ARE IN A PROCESS AND THAT WE ARE NOT IN CONTROL, WE WILL BEGIN TO UNCOVER WHAT IS HIDDEN/SOLVING WHAT IS THE MYSTERY - THE PROCESS IS IN CONTROL.

So, if we remain Discipline (not punishment discipline but Power discipline) to the Process the Process will take control, actually giving us confidence and moving us forward.  We will not be stuck in the miry mud that our own fears and distractions cause because we will be in the control of the Process. Its like eating - First start with the system and eat every 2 to 3 hours. People often ask me why that number. Well the body system/Process that we are talking about is digestion and it takes place within 2 to 3 hours. After we have practiced discipline with that then we have automatically moved forward to the second topic, portions. They have been changed for us by the system/Process of eating every 2 to 3 hours. Doing this means that you will eat 5 to 6 and sometimes 7 times a day depending on when you get up and when you go to bed.  After our portions have been modified we move to the third part of the Process. The question is asked what can't I eat? and we say, no, it's what Can I eat? This question allows us to see other ways to provide the same affect, which is living in the Process. Finally, we come to the fourth step in the Process and we often ask ourselves...How do I make it stick?...To answer this we need to look back at the main characteristic of the Process. And it is that the Process is in control. So, if the Process is in control, then we don't need to do anything other than allow it to take control and go back to the beginning/the system. STAY DISCIPLINE TO THE PROCESS AND IT WILL PRODUCE A HARVEST!!! So whatever the process, if it is noble, if it is moral, if it is virtuous, if it righteous...TRUST IT.

What to eat??? Part 3: Get Lean / Stay Lean

The last post I showed a new website resource that offers prepackaged food to put into your eating plan. So, today let's talk a little more about eating and look at 2 different goals.  I am asked all the time, "how do I eat to get lean", and "how do I eat to stay lean".  Looking back at LeanEats we can see one way to go about both goals. So, below is listed an approach to both goals.  Remember that discipline is power not punishment. So, use discipline to assist you in working these plans.

What to eat?...(part 2)

Last week we discussed the big picture of Meal Structure and looked at a basic Meal Plan, 'Build Lean Muscle while Burning Fat'. It listed an example of what to eat at each meal but the problem comes on the second day when you are left to decide what to eat next...

*SOLUTION* Here is a option to use in the decision making process.

Check out this website...

Let's take lunch, for example. The Meal Plan lists turkey burger (for protein), broccoli or green beans (for greens) and sweet potato (for complex carbs).  If you go to the link above it will give you many more options for Protein, Carbs/Greens and Fats, all preportioned and shipped to your door. Think about it, most of the time our choices are based on convenience. Well here is an extremely convenient option.
