Health Reports \• December 9, 2012
As of this week I am revamping my training program. It’s time for a change, and I’ve been hinting or mentioning that in post after post lately. I have four desires for the new program: (a) It should support a higher level of conditioning. (b) It should provide a routine that can allow me to [...] Health Reports \• December 8, 2012
For the past 18 weeks I have given over my programming to Zach Bijesse, my young friend, who is smart, super strong (he is a superheavyweight class weightlifter), and dedicated to a programming philosophy that is “Bulgarian,” in that it prescribes constant reiteration of the training lifts, at maximal efforts. Usually, the day’s workout prescribed [...] Health Reports \• August 31, 2012
I am currently on a 19 week training program, consisting of four cycles of four weeks each, with interstitial “play weeks” between cycles. I have just finished the first cycle (from Aug. 6th to Aug. 31st) and, before I embark on a “play week” I thought I’d post a short analysis of my progress this [...] Health Reports \• August 5, 2012
My Summer Surf Safari 2012 is over. It was four fun training weeks and one play week. All went just about according to plan (I did miss 1/12 of the workouts, though); close enough! as far as training results and body recomposition goes. I am satisfied. And now I begin a new semester at work, [...] Health Reports \• July 1, 2012
New Four Week Training Cycle begins today, July 1st, and extends until July 28th. Twelve MWF workout are planned, but the main point of the cycle is to surf as many times as possible. Training plan is simple. Focus on doing triples. Deal with the equipment limitations of being at the beach, which are as [...] Health Reports \• June 23, 2012
Four weeks ago I announced a new plan for training and body recomposition, which I initially viewed as a “challenge” cycle (see “new four week cycle: summer solstice 2012″ from May 27th). I had great ideas for dietary self discipline in there, including: daily IF, weekly 22 hour fast, whole-foods Michael Pollan style eating, low [...] Health Reports \• May 27, 2012
My new training cycle will be four weeks long, running from May 27th to June 23rd. The cycle includes the following training and body recomposition goals. Body Recomposition Goals At the end of my previous training cycle I got off track with diet, and had a surgical procedure, and ended up flat on my back [...] Reflections \• May 27, 2012
Trial and error. That’s been my training plan and my coach. Really. Because although I have relationships with coaches, and I do a little bit of coaching myself, I just don’t pay anyone else to be my coach or to program for me. To some ways of thinking, that leaves just me, as coach of [...] Health Reports \• May 19, 2012
I decided to end my current eight week cycle one week early, at the end of week 7, and to take the next week as a rest week, not an 8th week or a 1st week, and so not subject to a specific training cycle or plan. A week off. This recap will look back [...] Health Reports \• May 12, 2012
Week VI of my 8 week training cycle was… weird. It was finals week, my last week of the term, starting with exams, continuing with grading, and ending with graduation. As a college professor, my life is naturally broken into cycles, and, I need to learn to build my training schedule around them, because, as [...] |
