Sore What!

So yesterday was a great day at the gym, However today I am paying for it! You know how you go to the gym with every intention of doing good and the next day you feel nothing! So back to the gym you go to make up for it and BAM! Your in a wheelchair for a week! I still haven't perfected this working out thing. I feel super guilty every time I workout but don't feel sore the next day. So I return to the gym like some crazy jock on steroids lifting every weight I can find and severely pay for it the next day! There's got to be some medium here!



So today Ive been walking around like a new born baby deer which is kinda cute yet very creepy. Needless to say no gym pics or workouts today! Good news though, I did hit a 145 squat yesterday! Which is probably where this soreness came from.




Looks like Ive got a date with some Epsom salt! I love taking baths with this stuff! I just add a few drops of Lavender oil to the bath and soak for about 40 minutes.  It really does the trick! One days like today I supplement with some calcium, magnesium, and glutamine usually my soreness is gone by the following day!


I beg to differ! haha I kid... I kid

Working it out


So this morning was a rushed one, but I did have time to make my favorite breakfast of all time which is these amazing protein pancakes! Drowned Covered in PB2 peanut butter! I think Heaven was definitely smiling down on this breakfast today. 

Recipe
1 scoop chocolate protein powder
1/4 cup unsweet applesauce 
1\4 cup oat flour
1 egg
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp unsweet coco powder
mix, scoop onto pan medium heat for a couple minutes each side
and listen to the angels sing and you devour enjoy!

After that we had a great workout this afternoon!
Started off with a 60 minute yoga class which brought heightened peace and clarity to my life, followed by a sweat, grunt filled, power workout that had me wondering where the heck all the peace and clarity went!?


A little before and after of my weight progress! Still a long way to go. I have this disease called SAD (stick arm disease) But things are coming along nicely!
