Another New Low and Pork Chop and Veggies Kicked Up with a Habanero...

Suddenly 4# lighter than I was last week.

That's the way it works...

You plateau for a couple of weeks....

Your body adjusts...

And then moves quickly to the next level....

Poblano and jalapeño pepper, sweet onion, carrot sticks and asparagus already prepped...
Pork chops seasoned earlier today...

Cook 1 for this meal and one for the next.

Gonna take 4 mins on each side and 2 mins of steaming...

Hard veggies in the Dutch oven...

Prep the squash and zucchini...

Notice that each layer of veggies gets it's own dusting of salt and pepper.

Hard veggies are almost done...

So add the squash and zucchini and roll them in..

Flip the chops...

Fine dice the habanero...

And add to the veggies...

And cover for 2...

And assemble the garnishes and fruit...

Veggies are done so plate a portion..

And add a little water to the chops and cover for 2.

Dress the veggies with a drizzle of fig infused Balsamic...

And EVOO...

And package the 2nd pork chop, a portion of veggies and a 3rd portion of veggies for a future protein...

A full pint of Creatine, Fresca and Sangria and
the pork chop and veggies with added...

Strawberries, Mango, Grapes and Julienned Basil...

And tomorrow's lunch and dinner veggies in the fridge.

Stick a fork in Monday...

Cause it's done.

A Personal Goal and Today's WOD

What I want to be...

New warmup...

Love the Turkish Get-ups...

Geez... Overhead Squats again.... Really?

This is the exercise that creates the 300 abs.

It's like having your arms pinned behind you with a 100+ lbs on top and then folding up like an accordion and then standing up.

Coming out of a near ass to heels squat balancing over 100# over your head and then actually standing up with it is a feeling that can only be Discovered when you do it.

I could try to describe it....

But you wouldn't understand.

I was near the end of the pack but gave it a good effort and picked up speed at the end with Will's help on the rower.

25 mins seems to be my number.

I asked Will Black the age of the oldest member at CrossFit WMD.

He looked at me and said matter of factly....

"You're the oldest."

Not sure what to make of that...

I'm just happy to have Discovered CrossFit at CrossFit WMD and under the tutelage of Will Black.

Protein Prep!!

Let's do some prep for future meals with my Old Favorite Protein - the HEB BBQ seasoned Rib Eye Style Pork Chops and my New Favorite HEB Ahi Tuna....

Selected Seasonings for the pork chops are seasoned meat tenderizer, salt, pepper, cayenne, garam masala, cumin and turmeric.

Dust with all on one side and fork with abandon to tenderize and to drive the seasoning down into the meat.

Flip and repeat...

Put in a plastic container...

And then in the fridge for at least 8 hours but better the next day.

Next is the tuna....

Beautiful steaks.

Just salt and pepper and cayenne for Charlie.

And turn them on edge and season the sides too.

Flip and repeat.

In the Plastic container but keep one out for lunch!

And in the fridge next to the pig

Standard base of Sweet Spring Mix, Tomato, Radishes, Carrots, Grapes, EVOO, Balsamic, S&P

About 3 on the first side...

And another 3 on this thick tuna steak...

Low Fat High Protein Paleo Lunch with Creatine - Fresca mix.

Perfect....

And Perfecter!!

Carry On My Wayward Son!!!

Well Done My Son....

Well Done...

I'm coming as fast as I can!!
