So I like to read about all things fitness. There are of course my favorite authors, contributors and experts like Dave Tate of EliteFTS or Chris Shugart from T-Muscle / Velocity Life.
Last week I read an article from Chris that really got me thinking. The article title The New 21 Day Challenge
(http://velocity.tmuscle.com/free_online_forum/diet_blog_hammer_velocity_shugart/the_21_day_challenge) is not his most recent, but was bumped up the forum list.
After reading about how habits can be formed, changed or broken in average within 21 days I took a look at myself and some things I would like to change in my life.
While keeping this to a fitness based blog I will only go into a few of these, but needless to say there is a lot to be done to get me where I need to be on a lot of fronts.
I looked at ridding caffeine, alcohol or 21 days of cardio or something along those lines.
Well, I gave up caffeine for a week on a whim and didn’t find it to be that intrusive. I haven’t had a drink in more than a month so that really didn’t work for me either.
Then it hit me.
I want to give up starchy carbs.
That’s right, no:
- 1. Bread
- 2. Pasta
- 3. Potato
- 4. Rice
- 5. And pretty much any other filler type substance
I am not going completely no carb, I will supplement with additional servings of vegetables and beans (sorry baby!)
Wish me luck, I will report back weekly!
