Day 24 - Wedded to PCP

Today
Slept in just a bit but since we're not really doing anything until the afternoon it doesn't seem to have been an issue withe respect to the food schedule. Haven't found a suitable pull up or incline pull so we just substituted a weight machine in the gym. The hotel room is a bit tight which made for a kind of hilarious standing ovation in the bathroom with my fingers brushing the walls.

Food-wise we've done well today... Room service was able to get us almost exactly what we needed for breakfast (with the exception of some sugared walnuts and pickled onions that we had to put aside). Also, for lunch, Subway has turned out to be extremely accommodating. We are having to eyeball the weights of things but between some whole wheat bread, grilled chicken and some avocados and veggies we're doing well. The wedding reception is certain to be another matter this evening...

--- later that evening ---

They had a fresh veggie bar so we loaded up before dinner in an effort stave off the inevitable. Kim's specially prepared gluten free meal seemed to be perfectly in keeping with PCP whereas mine was nowhere near. So I picked at the chicken and mashed potatoes... The latter of which had bits of bacon in it. Guess my indulgence day may have come early.

Workout
OK, don't know if it's because we are at a lower altitude now but I was able to do two lots of 200 jumps which is a significant increase over any previous workout. A surprising amount of energy actually... One set was particularly trippy but overall high energy today.
1. Jump ropes: excellent, as noted...
2. Squats: seemed to suffer from lungitis in the sense that this seemed to go on forever but aside from some clicking in my left knee it was pretty good.
3. Pull ups: had to substitute the machine for this one workout but it was certainly no easier
4. Standing ovations: kind of hilarious squeezing into the bathroom to do these since the hallway entrance door was way too tight a space
5. Thumbs up curl: didn't bring the second band to up the weight so I just added a few reps to failure
6. Shoulder press: seriously, why are these shoulder workouts so freakin' hard? Did them all and I think the form was good but sheesh...
7. Planks: not sure if we should burn on these but I was definitely shaking throughout the exercise.
