Old Man Strength

So my fitness and diet goals had been working out pretty damn good over the past few weeks but a Nerdery holiday party derailed them a bit. A bar closing bender followed by "breakfast" at Denny's set me back a few days in the Whole30 deal. From what I remember, there were some eggs and bacon involved in the Denny's breakfast, that is Protein right? I did a bunch of burpees and a few rounds of arm wrestling (yes burpees in the denny's) so I got my reps in but I don't think i can rationalize away the 3 gallons of beer consumed that night.

When I started the diet a couple of weeks ago I knew the party was coming. I knew that my old pal Bill Brakeman (pictured destroying me in arm wrestling) wouldn't allow me to puss out and not have a blast at the company party. I fully planned to cheat 14 days into the 30. So I have decided to give the Whole30 a fair shake and reset to day one today. The basic premise of this reset is to not cheat. Shit is working, I want to make sure I get the best results possible so I will step back to day one.

Bill Brakeman may be an old man, but he is one strong S.O.B.
