Day V featured (1) a nice, slow run/walk: http://www.strava.com/activities/110706888 ; (2) a couple of hours in the park with kids, including multiple sets of tree pull-ups, push ups, stretching, and moving around in bare feet; and (3) a big-ass salad and other solid Paleo nutrition.
Most notable, the tree pull-ups were considerably easier and more fun than a few weeks ago. Today, after 85 pull-ups yesterday, I have very limited lat soreness. For me, this was directly due to reducing carbs and sugar to a minimum over the past 5 days; indeed, I have seen this phenomenon before and it is really cool when it kicks in: limited carbs and sugar = limited inflammation = limited soreness.
It's early in the game, but I am hopeful that I will maintain the momentum. It is very possible that in two weeks I will be able to do very hard, dynamic, ballistic workouts with little to no soreness afterwards. This carrot should sustain the momentum.
Breakfast today was 4 eggs (about 1.33 yokes) and two shots of wheat grass. No training today -- just a short mid-afternoon walk.
