This weekend Stowe Archers was holding our monthly Outdoor 3D Shoot. Things have been kind of crazy at home with the new baby and I wasn’t able to make it out and lend a hand with setup. When I came across some downtime yesterday I decided to run over to the club and range the targets (I like to have a reference of targets and distances for each month). I looked over at my daughter and asked “Hey, I have …
Month: August 2016
As any father will tell you, especially those with young children, time is a precious commodity. Two months ago my wife gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. With a two month old and a six year old, I found myself in a position that demanded I get creative with my time spent in the gym.

Ever since making the switch from my own re-intense workout routine over to Wendler 5/3/1, these Weekly Workout Logs have come to be a lot less fun to put together. Actually, manually transferring over data from my iPhone App into Google Drive to share the information is kind of a hassle.

I’ve been consistently hitting the AMRAP Set Goals and increasing my projected 1-Rep Max Weight. When the next cycle begins I believe my app will use the new weights to generate my lift figures. Using those new figures, as well as jumping from 50% to 60% on accessory lifts, is going to make for some …

We cut back on things like pizza and ice cream, trim down our portions, and opt for fruits and vegetables over processed convenience foods. This is an excellent start and we tend to see progress. As time passes we realize that if diet alone is …
In last week’s workout log I talked a little but about changing things up. I’ve spent the past 8 weeks focused on high repetitions in the weight room and nearly an hour of steady state cardio. While I was seeing progress in certain areas, I wanted to refocus my efforts on building strength and stamina while spending less time in the gym. I’ve ironed out my plan for the next three months and feel pretty good after the first week …
