THE DATES FOR OUR SECTIONALS HAVE BEEN RELEASED... MARCH 6-7th IN HUNTSVILLE ALABAMA... GET SOME!!!


"If you lack the courage to start, you have already finished."


Day 16 Training:

part 1:
On the minute every minute for 7 minutes perform 5 squat clean thrusters - be fast and aggressive; you must choose a weight that will challenge you mentally on the last few sets; it has to be the same weight every set and it has to be unbroken (you cannot let go of bar)
rest 3 minutes EXACTLY
On the minute every minute for 5 minutes perform 10 challenging chin ups (if you can do 10 chest to bar easy, do them weighted, if chin ups alone are challenging do them); they have to be unbroken
rest 1 minute EXACTLY
On the minute every minute for 3 minutes perform 25 unbroken sit ups - unanchored, hands at temples

rest 8+ hours

part 2:
Run three 5 minute blocks
2 minutes rest b/t blocks
In each 5 min block of running you must maintain a pace "just below" your threshold; there can be no ups or downs in intensity; the goal is to keep the pace high and challenging and maintain it for 3 blocks (the distance covered and speed per block must be identical - this will allow you to judge your intensity)

Today marks my first day to discontinue dairy and dairy products. After much reading and negative reactions to them, I figure it is about time to just give them up all together. Check some sources for yourself and see what we are putting in our bodies.
