It’s ok…Im in training

So last week my friend and I went to my charity wrap up meeting at the Fox and Hound Bar. When we got to the venue my homegirl thought she would be the odd person out because she was not an athlete. I told her that although my fellow teammates have been training hard they by no means look like your typical Olympic athlete. When we went to the bar she saw all the athletes gorging on fine delictable bar cusine (nachos, wings, pizza, and ice cold beer). Not for nothing it was disgusting to see them eating that crap and I know my homegirl was thinking, “ummm are they going to finish the race???” And not for nothing so was I!!

A lot of times when people workout they asume that their bodies are some sort of super human garbage disposal that will burn anything in it’s path. Well that my friend is wishful thinking. When you are training your diet is just as is important as your workout routine. Your body is a fat trapper and it will hold on to every single fat, carb, or protein that enters your body. Just because Michal Phelps can eat a Big Mac doesn’t mean that you can too.

Homeboy works out a crazy amount of hours (I mean that is his job )so he can get away with having ice cream if he wanted to. But you my friend are no Micheal Phelps and you must play by a different set of rules. Which means you have to eat clean!!!

So put down the nachos and pick up some unsalted nuts instead.
Happy Monday folks!!!

Update…a special shout to Kristine Rosario and Elizabeth Gordon for bidding on the Ferragamo bag. And congrats to Elizabeth for winning the bag. I have now reached my fundraising minimum and I would like to thank everyone for their generous donations. Thank you all!!
