It seems like the more I do these weekly workout log posts, the later they come in the week. My apologies for that – the new baby has been keeping all of us pretty busy and there isn’t as much free time for blogging. The big change this week, as you’ll see down below, is that I’ve gone ahead and taken the lazy route for posting the log. Rather than breaking out each day, creating an image, and recapping the …

I like to lie to my daughter… I realize that you probably see that as a rather bold statement and probably think I’m a bit of an asshole at this point. I should probably clarify. My daughter is 6 years old and I like to tell her completely outlandish lies that go way over the top and make her question my sanity. “Who ate the rest of the ice cream?” Well, when I got up to use the potty last …
Last week I sat down and began outlining a blog post that would take you, my readers, through my workout session for the previous week. Part way through the post I told myself I’d never do it again. It was just too involved for a simple blog post. Here we are a week later and I’m at it again.

Ultimately I took the Starting Strength program, Wendler 5/3/1, and the routine that I had done with a trainer at my gym, and sort of blended them all together. The idea was to …
Early this morning I was sitting on the couch, waiting for my wife to get home so that I could run over to the gym, when I ran across a picture from CT Fletcher on Instagram. Later on in the afternoon he would be posting an in depth interview with Terry Crews. I had seen the workout portion of the video (which was posted a day or two before) and was eager to see the sit down session between the …
Last week I stumbled onto an article on Medium that Inspired me to Carry a Notebook. I’ve been keeping that notebook handy ever since. When I leave for work, I stick it in my lunch bag and bring it along. When I head out of the house and plan on being somewhere for a while, I keep it close by. Despite having the notebook at the ready, I’m not using as often as I’d like. I think part of that …
