Thursday 20/6
Training: Session with Elena. Snatch/snatch balance Clean and jerks. Jerks from rack.
Barbell club. Snatch 3x1. 35/37.5/39 failed 40. Every time I attempt 40 I get an invasive thought "you're goin fail", have to prove wrong. Visualising doing 40. Not allowing myself to practice failing 40 too much.
Clean&jerk 3x1. 47.5/50/52.5 PB! Slight push out at end of jerk. Power cleaned.
Gymnastics 100 v-outs 25 each tuck ups, straddle ups, superman rocks, hollow holds.
Almost got strict toes to bar.
Mobility
Both pre-lifting sessions. Banded hips & upper back 20 minutes rolling. Discovered best ankle stretch on roller!
Food. 2x toast with jam @ 5:30am plus a lamb chop. Hunger woke me up. Back to sleep. 10am . Large latte and cheesecake muffin from Gloria jeans 2x lamb chops, peas, broccoli, mash potatoe, left overs 1/2 Lebanese bread toasted with chicken tenders, avocado, cream cheese. Hemp force protein shake with coconut water Slow cooked Portuguese style chicken (1drumstick + 1 Maryland), kipfler potatoes seasoned chilli, herbs, asparagus fried in coconut fat, heaps of salad (leaves, avocado, kumatos, feta cheese, olives, red capsicum, oil, balsamic, seeds). Seriously the best meal I've cooked!
Water. Around 2Lt really good for me!
Sleep Can't recall. Woke up 5:30 with about 5-6 hrs of good sleep. Then slept in until 9. So 8-9 all up. Insomnia tue/wed about 4-5 hours poor sleep so caught up on some sleep.
Mood Can't recall exactly - remember having high heart rate post coffee/stress response. Felt anxious about lifting - such a weirdo!
Vitamins 1 super krill oil! 2x NM Melatonin 1xAB
Pain: none.
Notes: day off.

Variables. Training. Crossfit yes/no Lifting yes/no don't include strength from crossfit. Only actual lifting. Mobility yes/no (accept greater than 20 mins of any mobility) Food "Quality" poor/average/great. Aiming for average. Poor- 33%+ junk food/fast food Average- 75%+ clean Great 100% clean - unrealistic. Socially isolating. Borderline orthorexia. Not my goal.
Water <1L 1-2L 2+L
Sleep Onset <30mins 30-60mins 90+ mins
Duration
Quality: poor/average/great
Mood: low/average/high
Prediction: relationship between higher frequency of crossfit and lifting will see higher quality of sleep, duration, less onset, plus greater frequency of high mood. As frequency of crossfit and bb increase so will mood, sleep quality, sleep duration and a decrease in sleep onset.
As sleep improves in 3 variables I expect to see better training and recovery. Will think about how/if to track.
Prediction: eating clean 75% of the time will improve crossfit/lifting performance - again not sure how/if to track performance.
Bam!

Personaly i would include the strength from crossfit as well. It still counts as training and will take its toll on recovery, But thats me its all about what ever works for you ive got an idea for tracking your food, ill explain it when i see you next Mikalia. Glad you enjoyed yesterday. Was great seeing the hard work come to fruition.
