  1. Hey- Careful readers will note the inclusion of airdyne intervals twice. Wednesday is the correct programming. Tuesday is a mistake, please disregard.


  2. So, these are basically notes to myself…. but for anyone who bothers to read them… I am frustrated because I was not able to do the strength cycle last week due to competition prep and this week I will be in Iowa Wednesday-Monday so I am squeezing in everything Today and Tomorrow and not only and I doing that, but I am working a 12 hour day so I had to sneak everything in this morning and do it FAST.

    I did FS and Pullup-
    FS- 145, 155, 155, 160 = 4920 (up from 4640 two weeks ago)
    PU- BW, BW, BW+2.5×6, BW
    Struggle here. I think I probably couldn’t have completed the 3rd set with more rest in between. I did BWx32 two weeks ago.


    • Also, not able to do any of the accessory work- which SUCKS! I can’t wait to be back on track next week!

      And for the Garage Games on April 25th 🙂

    • Jen, You are getting better daily! I applaud the ambitious choices you make when it comes to setting up your bar!
