Light rain in the morning made the air a bit "fresher" than usual on my run into the gym in IfC for PCP session 43. cut about 3 min off my run in time...
Feeling almost back to 100percent following my train wreck last thursday.
Evening meals have been the most difficult to deal with ... Kinda boring and not much to work with.. Lunches are better... Can at least experiment with prepping food a couple time a week..
train hard everyone! Gannbare!

Day 41 - back on track after Thursday's train wreck
Got back into my regular morning session before work at 5:30am
- 20min run into the office.
- PCP session 41....
Breakfast...
Got my energy back after getting some regular sleep on the weekend. my dress pants are getting way too loose but holding off on any adjustments till the end of the program.
Pistols method 2 - just another way to do pistols... Got from my fight trainer...
- at home find a stool, a bit lower than a chair.
- start seated on the stool.
- one leg out in front like the pistols in the daily session cards.
- start with arms out in front.
- stand up on the leg not extended, while moving your out stretched arms down to your waist.
- sit down slow... And repeat...
Good burn and and balance training

Day 38 - Wolverine or GSP
Similar to Justin I had a toss-up between a comic book character and a real athelete. Mine was Wolverine vs GSP. Huge fan of the wolverine character way before the movie came out... GSP won ... Similar height and in non-competition times he floats around +190-pounds and drops to under 180 for competitions...
Getting down to around 83kgs (at least I was before my train wreck on Thursday) from my start of about 91kg or so.... getting results... just got to keep on the rails for the rest of the program.
New lunch recipe: Same magazine... Salmon with Asparagus and Brown Rice..
- Haven't tried this one yet....
- 8oz Salmon
-2oz asparagus
-1oz Carrots (sliced)
-1.5 cups brown rice (which will get you through about 2 meals)
1tbs shallots
- Boil brown rice (2:1 water to rice).
-Pepper on the salmon... hot pan face down for 2 minutes... flip... put in oven for 10 minutes (if you have an oven... if not let simmer covered).
- Saute carrots and asparagus in about 1 tbsp of olive oil...
- brown rice on plate top with salmon and the vegis....
Let me know if anyone tries this out!

Day 37 - Recipe for 1 Apple, 250ml milk and 2 egg whites.
Add 2 parts mini burger... 6 red hot chicken wings... a case of beers and let simmer for 5 minutes.
A mate had his saiyonara party last night at Wagyu in Soho... And... Did someone catch the number of that bus????? I kinda deviated from the program for dinner last night.
Not a great result... missed my morning run and training session, and feeling a bit slow at the moment.
I'm back on the program now and will push through the training session this afternoon or evening....

Recipe - Chicken Picattta - may work for some PCPers lunches this week
Just thought I'd share a recipe that popped up in a magazine Marcus introduced me to call Train Hard Fight Easy (for the fighters on the program)... I'm not a fan of capers... but I think its a recipe that fits into many of our lunch programs
Chicken Picatta - The Healthy way
- 2oz mushrooms
- 2x6oz chicken breast
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
- 3/4 cup white wine... (ahhhh the alcohol will get steamed away... in theory haha).
1 cup brown rice...
-3oz broccoli
- 1oz garlic
- 1oz shallots
- 1oz olive oil... (can probably be cut back)
From the pics (1) cook chicken first; and make the brown rice(2) chuck in the mushroom, whole Lemon peal and all cut into about 4 pieces; (3) boil/steam broccoli; (4) rice on the plate... put chicken on top along with the broccoli, zoomers, lemon etc.
