Alright I’m starting out this new week with a “light training” week. Going extra low weight and manipulating the intensity of the workout by trying new things, changing the tempo and other techniques. The higher volume will be great, and the first workout was really awesome. Per the usual I did start with appropriate warmups. […]

If you want ladies to show you some lovin’, you gotta show your body some lovin’, at least that’s how I look at it. I finally felt closer to 100% after a few days of feeling a bit sick, so I needed to have a nice long workout day to make up. Leg day and […]

This isn’t really exercise but it is a physical activity so I’m going to list it, was still feeling a little under the weather so wanted something casual and fun, so hit up Boyce park for snow tubing with some friends. It was a fun time, the 2 hours or so of tubing probably equivocated […]

Got this workout from Scott Herman’s channel, I needed something short, intense, so I could get arm day in the books but have time to make it to do some good cardio… also the energy, I’m still feeling a little ill from yesterday, but better at least. Did some cooking in bulk which I also […]

Had an intense headache and a bit of nausea going into the workout today so felt really awful. Pretty sure I’m getting sick, which means scaling back the workout a little. That said, I felt I had enough energy to try but I realized rapidly that I didn’t have enough energy to truly put in […]

Did a short run on the treadmill of 4 miles, took approximately 40 minutes, had a slow to moderate pace and a few rest moments. Also skipped yoga (again, I will make it a priority to go next week though) but I didn’t skip the stretching, got a nice long 45 minute stretching session in, […]

Quick log for chest day, it was effective. Ran into an issue again today with people offering aid, this time on the bench press. I don’t generally accept assistance unless I’m having a serious issue, I believe learning to fail is an important part of being safe. That said though, I do visibly press my […]

Quick log for today’s back workout. Had a great time and feel great now that it’s over, better than I did last week. Changed my back warmup this week (normally did rows on a machine) to pair up a light set of bent over rows and good mornings. Also did appropriate warmup sets prior to […]

Super short log, ran 6.5 miles on the treadmill in an hour. Was aiming for 6.8, so came pretty close. I figure if I can hit a pace of 6.8 on a treadmill it will be a good indicator of having the ability to run the half marathon under 2 hours. Unfortunately a good training […]

Quick log for dev day, the day where I pick up the pieces of the rest of the week. I feel particularly down this week due to the hard workouts of the last weekend, so I didn’t do as much as I usually do, but I did hit a few key exercises hard. Developmental Day […]
