Health Reports \• January 8, 2012
Today marks the start of two parallel but different 12 week cycles in my program. They are (a) a training cycle, and (b) a cycle of attempting to change the composition of my body. The 12 week cycle runs from today, January 8th, 2012, through March 31st, 2012. This post is a brief report on [...] Active Rest \• December 11, 2011
Sunday afternoon at the end of my rope, grading wise, I put my backpack on and left out of Dobra tea, to take about a 45 minute walk through downtown Asheville, consciously breathing through my nose in the stinging cold air, taking the light into my eyes, and seeing what I could see. When I [...] Rest Days \• November 21, 2011
Monday morning. Sunday evening I cancelled my training, got T to cover 6:00 am open gym. I cancelled my work, all my classes. I am sick. Sore throat, sinuses, continued semi-productive cough in the chest. My mouth is dry and pasty and painful. This sucks ass. I first started feeling sick on Friday, the 21st [...] Health Reports \• November 5, 2011
I seem to be getting smarter as I get stronger. Coincidence? See my revised training goals and plan here. This week of illness has forced me to rest, and therefore to reset my squat linear progression. Definitely not planned. My count of weeks will reset to I as of tomorrow. I am planning to restart [...] Rest Days \• November 1, 2011
It would be week XII. But I missed workout A. Looks like I’ll miss workout B tomorrow AM too. It means I fall behind on my projected squat linear progression, and being a super novice, I don’t even know how to deal with that programming issue. My doctor ruled out pneumonia. Which is good. And [...] Active Rest \• October 15, 2011
Week IX, Workout D Stopped by ASC at about 11:15 with the kids. Nobody but T-Bone there. Nothing going on. I decided to goof around. Then turned it into a workout. Details as follows: Warm-Up: 5 minutes on the Airdyne Bike Goofing Around: 10 lbs FatGrips DBs, farmer’s carries while skipping, and walking, in lines [...] Active Rest \• October 3, 2011
Week VIII, Workout B Not so much of a workout as an active rest day. I took the whole day on Sunday devoting it to the squat, so I needed Monday morning for some academic work. Instead of simply blowing off the day, though, in the early early morning I did some warm-up mobility work [...] Active Rest \• September 24, 2011
So, I wrecked myself over the weekend, with “cheating” and “drinkin” and “stayin up late” and that continued into Sunday night, as we sat up with some lovely “long weekend” house guests late into the evening. I maintain that lively conversation with friends, at table, with wine… that is the definition of the good life. [...] Active Rest \• August 18, 2011
Week I, “Workout” D Thursday before lunch (my first meal of the day today) I ran the citgo mile route from my house. Total time: 8:20. A substantial improvement over Tuesday’s time. This felt like 85-90% RPE. Active Rest \• August 11, 2011
Not currently actively “training” while I recuperate from this broken arm, but I will record sessions that constitute deliberate attempts to stay active. So I’ve tried doing some “power walking” (aka “walking”) today and yesterday. 15 minutes yesterday. 23 minutes today. These felt good. Walking is enjoyable. I wore my splint during both sessions, and [...] |
