Day 4 of 75

Hello my loyal disciples! I would be lying if I said that the first three days of the 75 hard have been easy. I have learned a lot more about myself significantly earlier than my last 75 hard. The resistance to working out has been stronger and my attitude has been very poor. However, this morning I woke up and my legs felt a lot better than they have since starting the kettlebell swings. I am happy to say that I am 1500 kettlebell swings into 10,000. In my opinion, the best part of the 75 hard challenge is the callusing of one's mind. My attitude has improved and I think a major reason is I have come to terms with the fact that there are going to be great days during this challenge, as well as terrible days. I am just grateful that things started out so shitty, because as of today things are looking up!

Dinner: Two calf livers with one half onion and a large bowl for spinach and arugula with 2 tablespoons of Bolthouse Farms cilantro avocado dressing

Side note: I know liver sounds gross, but Liver is high in vitamin A, folic acid, iron, and zinc. Liver is the most nutrient dense organ meat, and it is a powerful source of vitamin A. Vitamin A is beneficial for eye health and for reducing diseases that cause inflammation. It’s also cheap so give it a try!!!
