So been doing paleo kinda for about 3 weeks. It sucks not eating pasta, but within the first week I lost 5lbs of what idk. Im havent lost or gained any since. I think it got rid of some bloatyness. My abs seem to be coming in more as well . We will see how this goes.

Did a free workout at a crossfit gym too. 7 wall balls then 7 burpees as many rounds as I can in 7 mins. I think I will join the gym in a few weeks. But I will still do my Calisthenics stuff on the side. 

Typical meals

Breakfast: ham/egg omlet

Snack: Some form of fruit smothie/ nuts/ or fruits (grapes, apple, banana) 

Lunch: Normally a loaded salad , unless I can find something else

Dinner: This is the hard one I eat alot of fish/shrimp/lean meats/ I just have a hard time finding stuff to go with it.

Calisthenics or Crossfit??

I always go back and forth as to what I want to do. I enjoy both but just not sure which one I should put my all into

Calisthenics  Pros:

Free

Can do it anywhere any time

You can accomplish some amazing feats

Calisthenics Cons :

Slow development

Lack of training partners

Gets boring at times

I miss weights

____________________________________________________

Crossfit Pros:

Varity of workouts

Training partners

Tangable goals

Crossfit Cons:

Cost

Loss of control over workouts

Restricted to one place and certain times

What I may do is just a combo of both, but once I pick up running track again next season something will have to budge. 

COW #2

Challenge of the Week:

Complete as many muscles ups as you can with out touching the ground. If you cant do a muscle up do regular pull ups.

Completed: 15 muscle ups. 

* Its crazy how just 3 months ago I did my first muscle up and could barley do more than one at a time. With hard work I’m up to 15, wonder where ill be in another 3 months . 

Just dont let this be you!

Challenge of the Week (COW)

See what I did there, get it get it ! My version of the WOD. Well to put more content on there I will be challenging all of you and myself to a challenge of the week. These will be all bodyweight/calisthenics stuff.

COW #1 - Dips

Perform as many dips as you can straight. Full extension at the top and get deep.

I completed 72 dips.

Enjoy!

asks:
Like how you put up all your goals and crossed em off for the ones you've achieved. <3Calisthenics! question, do you do any weights or pure calisthenics?

I do pure calisthenics at the moment, its something new and exciting for me. I do have a 45lb kettle ball I use maybe once a week. The goals give me something to look forward to.
