Worked hard on the box jumps today and did every one as a jump up and down. Box was approximately 12 inches. This was a big thing for me as I get over my “reluctance” to jump.

Eating—On plan, doing well. Steve did his weigh in yesterday and was down three so Paleo is working for both of us.

What hurts today—Continuing to feel really good. Nothing major going on.

It’s hard to believe that is starts the last week of July. This summer is flying by.
