Rain, rain go away.

AH, the joys of living on a tropical island. I am trying to motivate myself to wake up early and go on a run first thing...still trying to decide before or after breakfast. Well, this morning I woke up to the rain! Instead of running, I did a quick workout inside and decided to hit the gym in a few.
This is what I did two times basically back to back:
50 jumping jacks
10 tricep pushups on knees
20 sit-ups
30 mountain climbers
30 sec. plank
7 burpees

Then, I felt a little better. So, I decided to do one more mini-workout I saw on www.bodyrock.tv, this site is awesome and so motivating! I will get into "diet" plan they suggest in a bit.

Here was the quick 4-min workout they suggested to get your heart rate up quick. It's awesome if you push yourself to the max.

(:00-:15) 180-jumps with floor tap and squat jump (A)
(:15-:20) rest
(:20-:35) 1/2 burpees with in out feet jumps (B)
(:35-:40) rest
(:40-:55) A
(:55-60) rest
then, repeat cycle starting with B and working up to 4 min.

Feels better.

The whole "diet" I am on is pretty simple. It's mainly just simple lifestyle changes.

-Eat as whole, organic and clean as possible. 

-Eat protein with each meal

-Drink 2 litres of water a day (roughly 64 ounces)

-Stay away from sugary drinks, fried foods, processed junk (and yes, that means all chips, crackers, basically yummy stuff), high fat cheeses and limit oil/butter use. I will avoid alcohol except for special occasions.  

-I will only eat carbs for breakfast and the two hour window after working out when my metabolism is higher. If I want some more carbs, I will do a quick workout (i.e. 4 min workout) and limit the carbs as much as possible. 

-Drink as much green tea as I can! 

-Finally, one fun cheat day a week! PIzza Sundays?
