Comments: Another day in paradise. Did my time. Started w abs. I'm really gaining strength there. Always been the stepchild of body parts for me. Hated them. Of course. I felt weak and my genetics don't scream 6 pack. Well, now I'm doing suspended abs. I can go from a dead hang to a pike position w feet over my head x 10 in a row. I did 20 in all today. Boooyaaa!
Afternoon:
This down the GREEN MILE again. So it's R Lunge > Squat > L Lunge > Squat to each pole. At he pole - it's 11 squats. That's 77 on the poles for each trip. Didn't count squats between poles down the 60 yards. On the way back straight lunging. This is over 1000 squats and 1000 lunges.
Comments: New PR 1 hr 01 min 31 seconds. I have never moved through this cardio that fast. Legs and glutes would lock up. So freaking pleased with this time. I did the work, I just took far less time between trips.
People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that's why we recommend it daily. - Zig Ziglar

Comments: Today was grind and go. Not enough sleep or just winding down from having super powers. At any rate, I did push the heavy weight. Pretty well, actually. Trying to make friends with the 75 lb bb.
Diet Comment: I am so bummed (prob a blessing) that my favorite CRACKers are causing me digestive issues. :'( Cutting carbs unintentionally, now. I'll eat something else, but not as devotedly as I ate those crackers!!
NOTE: If you hit the target every time, it’s too near or too big. ~ Tom Hirsfield (Physicist)
