I've been very busy with the return of the volleyball, women's basketball, freshmen football, football and basketball.  Training has been sporadic, as of late.  I think this week will allow me to get back on track.  Good start so far.

  • SSB Box Squat: 245x5/290x5/3x5@315
  • Ab Rollouts: 4x10
  • Pull-aparts: 2x25
  • FBB Bench FSL: 5x5@225
  • Pull-ups: 5x5
  • RFESS: 5x5

Really good day.

I've noticed a few things over the last 8-9 months of training.  In an effort to hit a little bit of each thing I enjoy I'm making another tweak to my template.  What I've found over the years is that working out isn't worth it if you don't enjoy the process.  If I don't "feel" the workout I just don't want to do it.  I don't mean "feel the burn".  I mean enjoy the flow of it.  I like the idea of hitting the 1st movement hard and focusing on building strength.  I've also found that I really enjoy the circuit training as a form a conditioning with weight and bodyweight movements.  I also prefer doing multiple compound movements in the same day.  So, that's what I'm trying to figure out for myself.

I spent some time looking back at my log to see where I was having great success and really enjoying what I was doing.  The main things I came across were what I mentioned above.

I enjoyed today's session and for now, look forward to getting in either Wednesday or Thursday for round 2.
