Tabata Intervals : Day 26 (Raw Diet Energy)

Today was a strange workout. I didn’t have the weights as I stayed at my grandmas so the sit-ups I did were easier. My form was the same as last week so it proves that I’m limited only by the 20 second limit and not the amount that I can put out.

I ate Raw for one day (except for 3 pieces of toast in the morning) and noticed a huge energy shift upwards and then crashing back down yesterday when I had a gateau and a sirlion steak, the shame!

But in all honesty, I’m going back to eating Raw in the near future, the energy is amazing. I just needed a bit more money to carry it through, and a bit more stability in others areas of my life. One good thing about the Raw diet is that when I get used to actually eating that much physical food and get enough fat, I can lift heavier, run further and it gets rid of all the excess fat on my body giving the amazing ripped effect.

My form today was

• Sit-ups – 13
• Planks – All Complete

Difficulty 6.5/10

I somehow need to add weight during the planks and considered putting a dumbbell plate on my back but this is inconvenient during a workout. Maybe I’ll look up some alternative abdominal exercises.

I’ve successfully switched to exercising at someone else’s house too. This is great because it shows the routine is engrained for life. I can now exercise for every day for the rest of my life without it feeling too tough. Barring illness and extreme circumstances of course.

I’m going to look into getting an apprenticeship for income. Whilst the money you get is quite low, I could get by on it not having to pay rent and could actually do something I like for a few years whilst doing this writing on the side and building an income from it.
