After the abysmal performance that was Day 2 of my Training Program, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect on Thursday when I set out for yet another run. In the back of my mind, I was worried that I’d start cramping again and I’d be left limping home in a lot of pain. Despite that nagging little voice in the bank of my mind (the one telling me to go back inside and lounge on the couch) – I …

After I got home from my run on Sunday, the strangest thing happened. Once I was past the point of feeling like I just might keel over and die – I started to feel good.

Wendler 5/3/1 While I may only be two weeks into the Boring but Big Template of Wendler 5/3/1, I feel like I’m making solid progress. 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 …
