Woke up today feeling amazing, my energy levels were through the roof. I had a lot planned for today and woke up a little later than expected, so rushed getting ready. I did manage to drink a chocolate protein shake and eat an egg an avocado for breakfast. I went to jump street which is our local trampoline park with my friend and messed around doing gymnastics which is my passion in life, even though I am better at coaching than doing I still feel that love for it. We stayed for two hours and I gave my friend a post work out drink to help us not ache too much and stay hydrated.

I couldn’t believe that after two hours non-stop jumping I still had the energy levels to go round my friend’s house in Wix to practice our pole fitness moves. I have been doing pole fitness for around a year now and absolutely love it. It helps me get stronger to support my gymnasts when coaching and helps maintain my flexibility. There is a lot of stigma surrounding this sport, but I love it and it shouldn’t be judged harshly, it is super hard to do and really pretty when done right. My friend has a pole in her mum’s house, a whole room dedicated to fitness was awesome. I helped teach them both how to hula hoop with a weighted hoop. They were so excited.I was with two friends and we all got better at our moves we were working on, I got two new ones infect! I felt a little dizzy so I drank some water and asked if she had any food, there wasn’t a lot I could think I can have on this challenge but I had a banana and that really helped.

When I got home I made myself dinner which consisted of chicken and vegetables. I know with this challenge you shouldn’t feel hungry but I really struggle to organise my life around the included food. I also had some cashew nuts and dried cranberries. I later had another protein shake and still had high energy levels throughout the evening. My gut is clearly very happy which is where most of our serotonin levels are and I was getting a lot of endorphins from all the exercise I was doing today. It feels good and it makes me feel fitter. I feel 100% better than I did on day 3 that is for sure!

Loving the healthy food I keep cooking ??
