February 4, 2012 NEXT LEVEL INVETATIONAL IRON WILL COMPETITION

Hi all, this weekend I am competing in the NEXT LEVEL INVETATIONAL IRON WILL COMPETITION with 5 other Crossfit by BodyFit athletes (Lynay, Meagan, Rachel, Kevin, & Phillip) .   I wish them all well and know that they will crush it!     I am super excited to put my Crossfit training and all the progress I have made in my lifts, gymnastics and endurance to the test and see where I shake out.   I have been training hard and have maintained my nutrition well for the past 4 to 5 months.   I feel I have added some strength and lean muscle as of late (eating more protein and good fats and taking a post WOD shake after each WOD).    I am registered in the Masters Division 40-52 class.  WOD #1 is at 10:30am, Floater WOD is at 1:30pm and WOD #3 is at 3:30pm.   Should be fun day!  I will try Sunday or Monday to post up my Saturday competition experience and nutrition.

Regarding my pre comp training & nutrition the week before, it looked like this…
Nutrition – Maintained my paleo nutrition strict, adding in some additional protein & good fat daily. I plan to eat the exact same breakfast, snacks and lunch as I normally do as well as take the same pre & post wod nutrition that I do daily.
Monday  – Trained at 100%
Tuesday – Trained at 75%, reduced weight on lifts
Wednesday – Trained at 60%,  reduced weight on lifts, worked skills
Thursday – Rest
Friday – Rest / foam roll / light rowing and loosening up
Saturday – Competition
Sunday – Rest
