Mac are you eating the "zone"? just looking for more food options and to see what you are eating. I noticed back in Aug. you posted some of your meals, if you are still in the zone can you post some more if you get a chance? Or anyone else for that matter!?
Breakfast 4 Blocks protein - 2 fried eggs, some deli meat carbs - 1 engish muffin (bad carbs) 1 apple fat - avocado as spread on english muffin - 6 cashews
I was hoping to make it tonight but the work/pool is taking over my life again. Might look at starting in the mornings again soon, assuming I ever get a paycheque :P Have fun tonight!

ReplyDeleteThanks Mac, One more question. When advised to take 4 block meals is that 4 blocks of each P, F, & C? or 4 total blocks including P,F, & C?
ReplyDelete1 block is 1 Pro, 1 carb, 1 fat so yes, 4 block meal is 4P, 4C and 4F
ReplyDeleteGreat thanks for the help.
ReplyDeletehow many blocks/day are you looking at eating?
ReplyDeleteso 20 daily blocks, just using the chart.
ReplyDeleteMatt, CF Journal 21 is a pretty good resource: http://journal.crossfit.com/2004/05/zone-meal-plans-crossfit-journ.tpl
ReplyDelete4 block meals and 2 block snack

Jamie- impressive last round, lots of heart
Man, being sick sucks. Would have liked to see all that!
ReplyDeleteGood work guys - couldn't believe your Helen, Bill. Thanks for the encouragement during the WOD Mac.
ReplyDeleteGreat Work Guys! Nice to see everyone active on the boards.
