She has amazing swing form, if I say so myself. Not to mention some serious endurance. She would have made a great bike racer.
"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

That's pretty cool.
Rif, I was wondering if you could elaborate on your diet in an upcoming post? Like what you eat, when, etc. I got the Warrior Diet book, and am considering giving it a shot after my marathon next Saturday. Thanks!
Brett,
sure, it's pretty simple.
4 am: 2 cups coffee with full fat cream( 1.5 tablespoons each)
during day: herbal decaf tea
Dinner: 3-4 PM
course one: stir fry consisting of:( macadamea nut oil and some butter)
1/2 onion
1/2 cup cabbage
1 cup spinach
3 cloves garlic
1/2 cup mushrooms
( any other veggies tracy has left over)
protein source: organic eggs(2) or meat(4 oz or so)
melted cheese( swiss or feta)
course two:
almonds, peanut butter, tahini(sesame butter) raw coconut and raw honey mixture ( about 1/2 cup total and 8 oz yoghurt
Dessert
Ice cream 1/2 pint or kashi cereal with raisins and milk.
sometimes some more dessert: dark chocolate ;))
that is my usual fare.
Thanks for that. I must say I'm intrigued by this approach. Did you notice any difficulty in adapting to it. Also, how about your energy pre and post-workout?
Any advice for endurance guy attempting this? I'm thinking pre and post-workout drinks would be necessary, but not much more than that.
On some of my epic rides and runs, I'll just fuel like normal. That's my plan anyway ... Thanks again. I love learning about all of this stuff. You're site is a great help.
brett I used to do a lot of fasting when I was doing ultra running to try to increase my ability to burn fat for fuel.
I also was trying to reduce my bodyweight as well. course i was running slow( 8.5-9 minute miles for the long stuff)
I would guess you would need more carbs for the main meal if you choose to play with this diet for endurance stuff.check with ori's book( warrior) to see if he has any specific recommendations.
glad you are enjoying my ramblings.
All this about diet following Tracy's awesome video.
Is everybody blind? She is a specimen and a half. Nice work. Did she ever have any back soreness during her transformation?
thanks I will tell her what you said, she will be pleased :))
Luckily she never had back pain during the transition. she has always been VERY strong and when she was heavy she was even stronger!
at a bodyweight of 150 in the mid nineties tracy back squatted 250 with just belt and wraps and deadlifted 245.she also got her brown belt in tae kwon do.
shes just getter better all the time as well!
She's great. Too bad there is not tandom KB competitions, you guys would win for sure ;)
thanks franz but tracy would leave me in the dust. perhaps kb swing comps? 15 min, 30 mi and one hour comps? has to go at least waist height? lol. who's crazy enough for that?
