I will delete the threads. I’ve never been on a forum before.
The diet is not “bs”. I think the portions I’m having are though. I eat when I’m hungry, but I think I need portion control. As for quality, I don’t eat fried. I shop the perimeter of the supermarket. I don’t drink sodas or sweet drinks. I do like red meat though and probably need to cut back.
And I do like carbs (e.g. rice with dinner, bread, sandwiches, etc), but I know it is sabatoging me because when I don’t eat them…I feel lighter during workouts.
I think you’re right about 60m runs and the intensity. It was getting to the point that I dreaded performance days more than conditioning days.
So I take it that you think long walks are a waste of time if you think long runs are a waste too?
Also, I’ve stopped drinking “Muscle Milks”. He likes them because they have a lot of protein and are good for recovery. I don’t drink them anymore because they have hidden sugars -I believe.
