Today was the beginning of a 3 day cleansing fast with Lemon water, Juice and herbal tea. The purpose of a fast is to give you intestinal tract a break, often times specific types of juices are used to detox kidneys and liver as well. The lemon water changes the ph of your body water. There is also another reason to fast at the start of a new eating plan because it serves to break all you old eating habits. For example many people eat for the following reasons Time of day, Places (in front of the T.V. etc), People, Boredom, and programing (clean your plate etc). By limiting your choices and breaking your routines it give you a fresh start.
I am not giving the details of the fast because I don't want you crazies running off half-cocked.
My energy levels have been good today and I finally passed the kidney stone that has been working it's way through my body. They say the pain of passing on is as close as a man will come to giving birth but having witnessed that I would say that it was not even close. Much respect to the mommies out there.

Today due to starting the fast we were not supposed to train, but we trained anyway. The workout was 15/15 for 30 minutes. 10 minutes of clean and press, 10 minutes of KB swings and 10 minutes of hanging leg raises. Great workout with the MLC. My neck is a little sore but I will fix that with some Eichens yoga tomorrow.
