Day 42, Max Interval Plyo

                Seriously felt the burn on this workout. It was pretty brutal. To the point I had to lie on the floor in front of the TV and watch the fan spin above my head for a few minutes while I caught my breath. This is not an easy workout by any means and I probably didn’t make things any easier on myself by sampling all of what I baked for the little monster’s birthday party. You know how most people have an angel and a devil on each shoulder? I have Angel Food Cake and Devil’s Food Cake. Yeah they’re both cake but I’m a baker, there’s always cake where I’m around.
                What people don’t often realize that while Angel Food Cake tastes delicious with strawberries and whipped cream it’s actually considered a “Healthy” dessert. Made with egg whites it has the benefit of being lower in calories, cholesterol and fat. The perfect treat for when dieters are having a sweet craving… it’s the one that guides me towards healthy alternatives to what I would normally eat.

                Now on the other shoulder is my Devil’s Food Cake. It makes me eat terribly delicious things that affect my work out and make me sluggish for days.The temptation of yesterday was awful. To my credit, I did not eat tons of the cake, frosting or fondant but I did sample throughout the day to make sure everything was the way it should be. Possibly could have played a role in my exercise torture… possibly…
