Okay so I decided to take a rest day today and catch up on some stuff I’ve been neglecting, and one of those things is a new healthy cooking project I have for some real proper protein-heavy Oatmeal Raisin cookies. They are admittedly my first baking project and not all that tasty, but I was […]

Today was back day, and I decided to try something new. My workout plan was revised recently to focus less on constant new one rep max work (which was getting me gains consistently, but perhaps not the best ones and also necessitating injuries). So now I’m focused more on working harder for it and not […]

This workout was dev day, which is for now squat development (to keep my legs lifting hard, since I substituted leg day for “half training run” day until the end of April) and triceps (to make up for arm day’s lack of tricep work). Both workouts were great, and had a great time. First squats […]

Today was arm day, had to cut it short so I could get on the way to see Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Which was a pretty awesome movie. So today was primarily bicep day, and it was one of the hardest bicep days I’ve done. I followed a workout from Mike Chang that I’ll […]

Half marathon program change has me doing training runs instead of leg day, and doing squats on dev day to keep my squat development continuing (just at a slower pace). So today I did a nice long run, 3 hours and 15 minutes to trek 14 miles in the hilly Frick Park (again). Not much […]

Due to weird work hours, and being ahead on my workout cycle, I designated both Saturday and Sunday as rest days. Itching to get something done outdoors though Sunday night I took a beautiful stroll through North Park with a hiking group. 3 miles at an easy pace. Nothing big, but worth logging for future […]

Today was chest day. I’m taking my shoulder impingement very seriously, so I needed a short but effective chest workout that would be very light on shoulder work. I think I did pretty good. After picking some relatively safe exercises, I picked a volume I felt was appropriate to get good work in and was […]

Alright still catching up with logs, today was back day. Obligations today and the fact it was nice outside and I didn’t want to stay couped up encouraged me to do a shorter workout. As a reminder to myself, I need to stop doing longer workouts – I’ve ranted about it before but I keep […]

This is development day, which means for the next few weeks catching up on my leg day work that I missed to go on my longer runs. Again keeping the log short for record’s sake. I decided to pair the leg workout with some chest exercising, since I didn’t get a great pump last week […]

Today was arm day, going to keep the log short and sweet just for record’s sake. Got like 3 logs to type up, busy week. First, biceps: Bicep Curls: 5 sets 5 reps @ 80 Concentration Curls w/Forced Negatives: 5 sets of 6 reps @ 40lbs (forced neg. last 2-3 reps) Chin-ups: 4 sets of […]
