5s PRO, 5x5 FSL - c4w2 - summary
So it was a good week. Relaxing a bit about the sled times helped. I had been kicking its butt, so I just got caught up in realizing progress week over week. In fact, @cstan097 reminded me this morning over in his log:
That’s the right perspective, day in and day out.
Anyway, the 3s week weights moved well, assistance did its job, and I hit all of my goals. Ate well, too: distributed my carbs more evenly throughout the week, ate more fruit (primarily strawberries, a few apples, and one banana), kept everything squeaky clean except for a few carrot cake cupcakes with cream cheese icing my daughter baked yesterday. (But they’re veggie—spelled c-a-r-r-o-t—cupcakes, so it’s all good, right?)
My goals for this week are:
- Complete all 4 lifting workouts
- Complete 4 days of hard conditioning
- Complete 3 days of easy conditioning + direct calf work
- Do 100 burpees + swings and 120 BPAs every day
- Continue to eat well
With the hard conditioning this week, I’m going to focus on just getting the work done—I still believe its magic works whether it takes me 7:30 or 9:00 or whatever to get 10 trips in. And at 500 yards per workout, I’m already over what JW recommends, and I really don’t want to burn out.
Sticking with burpees + swings for this week, too. I’ll likely run those in a circuit with BPAs again, as that seems to work well.
So here we go: I’m gonna eat these weights alive!
