I had a late soccer game, and the workout was plyometrics, so I thought doing the workout before my game would be a great way to loosen up my muscles. Usually, I sit around and get sleepy before my late games, and then I play terribly.
The plyometrics workout used to be the second-most dreaded for me, with the first being yoga. But this time around, it wasn't too bad because I've been doing high-intensity interval training with my trainer. I definitely sweated, and got to practice being a cat, so it was actually kind of fun. I did skip the bonus round because it was time to get ready to go to my game, and also the first move in that round is pitching, and I just cannot ever do it correctly. I get turned around and backwards and all confused and annoyed.
The best part about Fridays is that I eat pasta. I've found that not eating enough carbs really affects my ability to play soccer, so it isn't worth limiting them to only 20 percent of my calories. This was my food for the day:
- Breakfast
- One egg plus two egg whites with turkey bacon
- High-protein greek yogurt
- Lunch
- Pasta with ground beef and sauce
- Snack
- 2 pieces of string cheese
- A burger: patty, cheese, whole wheat sandwich thins, 2 slices of pork bacon
- Dinner
- 2 gatorade chews, because of my soccer game
