Training: Finished first 3 week cycle of WS4SB III. First block went well with an increase in the intensity through this time. I was working with the safety squat bar for the first time in a while and I always struggle with that bar as with my levers I bend a lot at the hips

Adjusting to the summer heat is becoming more challenging with time. I feel like it goes from 70 to 90 and humid and it takes a couple weeks to adjust. Training: week 10 of strength and 10k program. This week I noticed the lower body days feel great, but the upper body lifts took a

The best couple weeks I feel like I hit a wall. We had promotions at BJJ and the competition classes have been taking a lot out of me. The week following all my upper body lifts and deadlifts were down significantly. I was thankful that I was able to get some time in for reading

It’s been quite some time since I did my training log or reflected on some of my reading. I’ve been thinking and not doing. Maybe the solution is write every day that I’m off so it’s more of a habit. Today is just trying to get the tires moving again. Training: Week 5 of Strength

Training: Today marks the completion of Average to Savage 1.0. I finished week 16 and elected to end with a mock meet. I worked up to 515 on the squat, 350 on bench, and 540 on sumo for a total of 1405 at a bodyweight of 204lb. I’m uncertain what I’m going to do for

I’m behind on blogging. I haven’t been updating rolling reflections nor am I staying on top of these training logs. I just haven’t prioritized writing. Training: I’m in the last week over average to Savage 1.0. This was the final training well and this week I’m going to work up to a testing day prior

It’s almost comically how quickly I can fall off and not do any of my writing over the past couple weeks. Sadly, I wanted to be more consistent during the lenten season and that has not happened to date. Better late than never. Training: Week 12-13 Average to Savage 1.0. The past two weeks have
