Sunday Check ins/Resets is happening in 3 days
Breakfast
Breakfast today. Really simple, I usually eat the same thing everyday. A form of Carbs, eggs, and a fruit with my electrolytes. I really focus on heavy carb and electrolyte intake in the mornings to fuel the day. While also trying to get in some protein. After this I’ll have a protein coffee.

Eating Less isn't the answer to losing weight
If your plan to lose weight is 'just eat less' — you're going to lose, then gain it all back. Here's why. I see young athletes do this constantly. They want to lean out, so they slash their food. Less food. Smaller meals. Skipping breakfast. "I'll just eat less." And it works… for about three weeks. Then it backfires. Every time. Here's what actually happens when you just eat less: Your body panics. It doesn't know you're "trying to get lean for the season." It thinks food is scarce. So it does what bodies have done for thousands of years to survive — it SLOWS DOWN. - Your metabolism drops - Your energy tanks - Your body starts burning muscle for fuel (the opposite of what an athlete wants) - Your training quality falls apart - And the second you eat normally again, you rebound — usually heavier than you started You didn't get leaner. You got weaker, slower, and set up to gain it all back. Here's the move instead: Don't focus on eating LESS. Focus on building a body that burns fuel BETTER. That comes from: - Training your aerobic engine (more on this in my next post about Zone 2) - Eating ENOUGH to fuel your training, not starving it - Lifting to build muscle — muscle burns more energy even at rest - Sleeping and recovering so your body isn't stressed into holding onto fat An athlete who trains hard and eats enough will out-lean a kid who starves himself. Every single time. Your body isn't a math problem you solve by subtracting food. It's an engine. Build the engine. Fuel the engine. The leanness follows. — Coach Owen (General education, not a personalized diet plan. If you have specific medical or nutrition needs, talk to your doctor or a registered dietitian.)

This is my go to Sweet Treat for when I’m wanting something sweet. It’s a mix of fruits, yogurts, peanut butter and granola. Dropping the recipe soon and macros.

Run today 3 miles
First run since December. Pace was much slower than expected and I wanted. But I’m going to start running more often, I feel better after I did it. Hopefully I’ll be at 8 min pace by end of this month. That’s the goal. For the 5k

Lunch today, post run
Made 3 turkey tacos. Definitely a bit interesting but honesty really good. This is about 8oz of turkey between the 3 of them. So I’ve got 48 grams of protein for 240 calories. Added with some lime chips and a Pepsi zero. 8/10. Will prolly make in the future
