Holy Schinkes it’s week 4 already so back in the pool yep it's "Monday-Funday!"

Never miss a Monday right?? In my Ironman training I'm supposed to have Mondays off, I just struggle with that however, I decided to swim 2700 plus and baby jog 3 miles on Mondays. So with that said I called the YMCA and got my membership started again. I was back in the pool by 8:00am, I haven't swam since Ironman WI 2019 and HOLY CRAP I could feel it my arms were on fire by 500 yards, and my breathing was off however, I knew if I stuck it out I would be fine.. 2700 yards later I was feeling unstoppable now that doesn't mean I was a rocket, I just did the best I could with my fins on, I used my paddles, and my pull, now we'll see how I feel tomorrow morning.

My 2700 swim was 48 to 51 min. wowza However. it's a start!

This evening was an easy 3 mile run with my bailey bear and the sun!!

I have to say getting back to where I was in 2019 it’s going to be so much fun I’m defiantly not there! I’m praying that having COVID didn’t do anything to my 💛; my heart rate is sky high!!

Supplements!

I’ve done a little investment in supplements, I just don’t get in enough protein, and I want to see if they’ll help achieve my goal of 11:40:00

Let’s go through them

After training- Phormula-1 & Ignition together-

The perfect place to start as proper post workout is the MOST IMPORTANT window in your training! It stacks Phormula-1 & Ignition together. Ignition will rapidly replenish glycogen which equates to muscle energy. At the same time, Phormula-1 is a rapid assimilation protein, which means it gets into the muscles very quickly and begins repairing them fast. I’ll recover faster, reduce muscle soreness, muscles will feel fuller longer, and you'll feel better all throughout the day.

My Level 1 Protein Coffee, shakes, pancakes and muffins

Adding in more protein

I will is through out the day- Essential Amino Acids

Why??

Muscle is made of protein, and that protein is in a constant state of turnover. As these proteins break down, the goal is to produce new proteins to take their place. 1st Phorm's Essential Amino Acids was designed to provide your body with the 9 amino acids that the body can not create on its own ... but are required in the building of new muscle.

1st Phorm's Essential Amino Acids was efficaciously formulated with 6.5 grams of essential amino acids that mimic the exact amino acid profile as your muscle tissue, giving you the ability to rebuild muscle faster than it's being broken down. Being in this state, called the anabolic state, boosts muscle protein synthesis and your ability to recover and to add more lean muscle mass.

Tuesday, Tuesday! #3

I started out with a baby jog on the dreadmill, my tummy wasn’t doing to hot, 6 runs into the bathroom in a short time; so I decided to take a pepto bismol and run outside (it’s cooler out) sometimes my body reacts differently when it’s cold, so I ran 13.1 miles just to see what my time would be under two hour perfect!! However, today Wednesday I’m so darn sore this am I’m guessing from the cold.
