Recovery Day

No training

25 minute primal walk in the AM

Took a hot cold bath in the PM. Ice plunged for 5 minutes total


COMMENTS

General: The ice plunge was the coldest I've ever made it and it definitely was something I forgot how much can help. On the other hand, it was pretty damn cold. I got out and felt really refreshed and my back decreased in soreness substantially over the next hour.

Nutrition: Good. Fasted until noon from 6pm last night. Ate at a big calorie deficit today (explained below)

Body: Good minus the sore back. I've been getting these severe stomach pains recently. It's becoming a daily occurrence and sometimes happens more than once. They last about an hour and tend to happen after I eat. I didn't eat much today because I got them twice after both meals I had and they lasted nearly 2 hours each. Going to get checked out soon.

Sleep: 8 hours

Reflections: Wish I knew what was wrong with my stomach. Tomorrow is going to be really busy with work all day so I may skip front squat in favor of just some form of CrossFit after work. I want to do it though so we'll see how I feel tomorrow. 1 more day of training tomorrow, then shoulder press and a light run the next day and I'm officially done training until the 50k. The reality is beginning to set in for sure on what I've got to do this weekend especially since the forecast is predicting snow Friday night and Saturday morning.
