Second part rowing, we have to row as hard and quick as possible for time. Dang, I can tell you my hamstrings tight like biatch. Oh, I went for an 1-mile run right after WOD. My legs literally shaking and can't ran properly.

Gluten Free Vegan Breakfast Cookies

Image
I baked 2 batches of this, one with chocolate chips, one without (all because ran out of it) and salty. These cookies are soft and unsweetened like regular cookies.  Would definitely make another nut-free version. Ingredients 2 medium ripe bananas 2 flax eggs (2 T flaxseed + 5 T water) 1/2 C salted peanut butter (crunchy or smooth) 2 T refined coconut oil, melted (or canola oil) 1 t vanilla extract 3 T agave nectar (or sub maple syrup, or honey if not vegan) 1 1/2 C gluten free rolled oats 1/2 C oat flour 1/2 C almond meal  1/2 t baking soda 1/2 t baking powder Pinch of sea salt (add more or less depending on saltiness of your PB) 3 T raw walnuts, lightly crushed (or sub other nut) 1/2 C semisweet or dark chocolate chips Directions Preheat oven to 350 degree. In a large bowl combine flax seed and water and let rest for 5 minutes to achieve "eggy" texture. Mash in bananas until well combined, and then add peanut butter...

20 mins to establish: 3 rep back squat then 60 seconds back squat @75% 16 rep @ 95# Last week was really terrible in terms of eating and sleeping behavior. Drink too much of alcohol and mindlessly shovel junk foods down my throat. Especially when Anja bought different kind of snack packs for the kids and me . Yesterday made an effort said "no" to Sam's birthday cake - Guinness peppermint chocolate cake after dinner. Went to bed early and woke up with good feeling today. The bruises I had from last week is getting more colorful. Everyone loves it especially crazy Brandon. I didn't really touch and feel how painful it is. Just let it be.
