3rd Shift and Eating Healthy

Well this is my recovery week from Insanity so I thought I would talk about healthy eating and being on 3rd shift or shift work.  I have been doing this for 9 years now and I have not found a healthy food place open at 3 or 4 oclock in the morning yet nor will I.  Well, that leaves about one option.  Bring your own food....so, now that that is figured out when do you eat?  my schedule is crazy... I work all night, get 4 hours of sleep, go work second job, come home, eat, workout and take a nap and then go back to work all night again.  I have found that taking my food to work at night.. usually a chicken wrap, three hard boiled eggs, apple and a cheese stick works well.  I snack on it all through the night.  When I go home I refuse to eat although it is tempting but I do not.  I go to sleep wether it is a 4 hour or 8 hour sleep and when I wake up my first meal is a Shakelogy shake and I load it up full of protein either with peanut butter or All Whites.  I take a protien bar with me to my second job and that holds me over until I get back home to eat dinner.  The Shakeology usually holds me over a good 4 hours.  My wife cooks very healthy and its allways a treat to walk in the door.  She is even starting her own blog.  My only problem is I find myself to lazy to count my calories and I am think I am falling short of the 3000 that is recomended for me.  You have to remember that I am also doing Insanity daily during this.  I love it when people tell me that they do not have time to work out.  You have time, you just have to give something up.  For more informationa about Shakeology see my siter at

At the end of week 4

Well, the first four weeks have been awesome.  I feel stronger in my core and my stamina has increased.  Overall I feel alot better that I did four weeks ago.  I have lost some of my mass but that is expected.  I cant wait to finish this and then start a hybrid with p90x

Week 4 Day 2

Well, I had a two good workouts this week.  Pure Cardio and Power .. it was some good stuff.  The funny thing was that my one year old daughter wanted stay in the garage with me the whole time I was working out.  Anyways we had a good time and I swear at one point she was trying to do high knees...lol 

Week 3.....Feeling Good

Well, Week three is out of the way. I am going to do an extra workout tomorrow just because.  I have been doing the Insanity workouts during the day and then at night throwing up a little bit of weight.  I am feeling much stronger in the core area.  I am getting excited to see what the next phase of the this thing is going to be like.  So far I have lost 12 lbs.  Not too shabby.

My Beachbody Coaching business is doing better this year.  I have tried to stay on top of it more and just keep the consistancy and momentum.  I am here to stay I can say that. 

Abs

I did the Insanity ab work out today...not bad.  It was about 16 minutes long and there were no crunches or sit ups.  You get a real good burn so do not think its easy just because there are no crunches.  Anyways it was a plus and then I went on walk with my wife and daughter after just to get out of the house with them.  It was nice.  8 hours later I am starting to feel the signs  of it, not the walk but the ab work out.LOL..  All things are moving smoothly, coaching is going well and making progress every day.  I just have to learn to keep the momentum.  If you have not tried this Insane work out I insist that you try this if you want a challenge.
