  1. The Pie Said,

    Good Lord Kel,

    Are you working a five on 2 off or what is your schedule? With all that heavy lifting do you get to day four and just die?

    Love the read on Insulin. Do you agree with his moderate protein. Right now I’m eating around 23 blocks of protein a day. Should I taper that down a bit and add in more fat? My fat intake is pretty high right now to. I know for sure I can’t eat any less calories, iits just a question of where I want to get them.

  2. Kelly Said,

    3 days on, 1 day off 2 days on 1 day off with the two days off being used for core strengthing. typically I will go Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday at SFU (2-2,5 hrs a session) Thursday off (do core work at crossfit) Friday at sfu (typically a heavy 2hr session hence the day before off), saturday at crossfit (lighter program if Friday was heavy) and then Sunday I will just do some core work.

    Lately we have been doing a whole lot of techniquey work isolating individual movements which has been really fun but pretty tough on my body at the same time. Wednesday morning I woke up and my whole body was just sore (nothing hurt, everything just sore), but then after today off, tomorrow I’ll be good to go again.

    However now that we are 30days away from the next competition, there will most likely be less time spent on strength development and drills. THe next two weeks will be fairly heavy and tough on my body, but then the 2 weeks before the competition will be substantially lighter and tapered down.

    In regards to the protein issue, I dont think that 23 blocks is overlly high for you. I’m eating about 17 blocks of protein and 32 blocks of fat and I weigh 130lbs..
