Good Evening Everybody!!
I am starting this training log so I can begin taking accountability for myself. I have been training for 8 years now. Last year, I let myself go big time. Working full time and going to graduate school really kicked my ass. During this time, I ate like shit, trained with very little intensity, experienced poor sleep, basically, anything related to bloating up, I put myself through.
After reading Chris Shugart’s recent blog, I admit I am ashamed of myself, and it’s time for me to get back to what I used to be, and ultimately, surpass what I used to be. Attached are pictures of me I took this morning. I will try to find a picture of myself before I bloated up so you can see the difference.
I will post my training and my food intake daily.
If you have any suggestions on tweaking my training and food intake, feel free to post!!
You took the all-important first step! Welcome, and and good luck sticking with it.

2) Sprints - 5 x 20 (walk back rest) , 6 x 50 (walk back rest)
3) 800 meter walk
