Things I like

Oprah has her "Favorite things", and I have my "shit" I like. This the first installment, and it is brought to you by breakfast food. Breakfast is the first meal of the deal. You are literally "breaking the fast" so the heartier the better. Your body has rejuvenated itself by getting a healthy amount of rest, and depleted your fuel reserves. Sleep does the body good, and deep sleep has the ability to elicit human growth hormones along with other hormones that help you recover and get stronger. If you are training and eating properly good sleep can increase performance a great deal.

Breakfast is awesome. Mostly, because of the fact that any meal can become "breakfast", but only some foods are deemed "breakfast foods". In particular these are things like bacon, eggs, and the possibilty of other meats like sausage, or steak.
That's a pretty delicous mustache. Aside from the standard delivery system of some type of plate or bowl a tortilla can be used to wrap said bacon and eggs for a whole new meat and egg delivery vehicle. Throw some salsa on that and you have a quality mexican breakfast.

Seriously, a rule in weightlifting is that you can't execute a lift properly by starting from a poor position. Breakfast is like starting your day in the right position. Eggs, bacon, and some other type of meat are the correct position. Not eating breakfast is like throwing in the towel for the whole day. Unless you are not eating breakfast because of the possibility of brunch. If so good form. Don't take from me though. Take it from my hero slash, slightly slimmer father, Ron Swanson.
