Monday Bench Press Workout

For breakfast today I decided to start with 2 cups of plain yogurt mixed with 1 scoop chocolate protein powder, 1/4 cup walnuts, 1/4 cup blueberries and a spoonful of peanut butter.

I mixed everything except for the protein into the bowl and then grabbed the new jug of protein powder I picked up yesterday. Tore the deal of the top and caught an unexpected odor.

Strawberry.

Ooops.

You can't start your day with strawberry protein now, can you? At least I can't.

So I used what remained of an inferior chocolate protein powder and mixed it all up.

If you are looking for a high protein breakfast alternative to your current processed cereals, consider that mixture. It's also a good nightime snack...but keep your portions in-line with your goals.

So for today's workout, here's how it went down...

1) Snatch (3x3)

2) 3-board Bench Press (4x4) - 285

3a) Front Squat (3x8) - 150
3b) Powerblock chest press (3xMax) - 85

4a) Pullups (3x8)
4b) lying db tri ext (3x6)

Stretched hip flexion muscles between sets and did foam rolling,
