I spent way longer in the gym last night than I was hoping.
I didn't train for all that long but I ended up having an absolute great discussion with one of the guys I talk to in there. We were talking about houses and the housing market and what we think will happen in the future here in Australia.
It was good to get someone else's point of view on the subject.
Before I knew it we had been chatting for just over an hour so I had to cut the conversation short and get back to my training.
I was hoping to get a few more exercises in but by the time I had finished chatting it was starting to get late, so I really powered through my workout.
I was pretty stoked when I jumped back on the scales, I have lost a kg and am now back down to 126 kgs.
I'm surprised that I am shedding some weight because I'm not doing any cardio, I have just cut down on some of the junk food I eat.
I have also been back on the super food smoothies for a week now, I have one a day usually in the afternoon and I must say I have noticed a real improvement in my energy levels.
After spending most of the day yesterday riding around Adelaide looking at houses, I was still able to muster up the energy for a decent workout.
Going back a few weeks ago this was not the case, and after house hunting I just couldn't seem to find the energy to get in the gym.
I will keep making notes of my switch to super foods, I will most likely be having two smoothies on the weekends from now on.
For anyone interested in what I put in my smoothing, here is the list:
- Frozen raspberries
- Frozen blackberries
- Frozen blueberries
- High protein milk
- Buck wheat seeds
- LSA Mix (Linseed, Sunflower seed, Almond)
- Barley grass powder
- Wheat grass powder
- White chia seeds
- Black chia seeds
- Tri colour quinoa
- Cacao powder
- Spirulina
- Chlorella
- Protein powder
