Stellar results!

I'm stronger by any measure.  I've forced myself to do the things I hate and as a result I am in the best shape of my life and continuing to improve. The game-changers for me have been:

  • Foam rolling and stretching before each workout.  Seriously!!  Who knew the impact would be so profound! I feel great and my nagging pains are going away slowly but noticeably.
  • Starting each session with Olympic lift variants.  Just a few sets every day and my forearms, traps, mid back, spinal erectors, and glutes have added a ton of new size and density.  yes I said my glutes have size and density.  lol
  • Conditioning circuits.  Though I hate CF as a sole training modality, hitting brief but intense MetCons after core lifting has done amazing things.  I'm leaner, more vascular, and have an improved work capacity.
  • Cardio interval finishers.  This is the sugar free icing on the fat-burning cake.  5 rounds of 1 min high effort and 1 min low effort.  Cycles, treadmills, rowing, stepmill, whatever.
I start an even more robust version of this same method on monday 11/9/2015,  God willing, I'll reach a nice peak by my 40th birthday, 12/21.
