I haven’t had time to log my training this past week (Week 2). But I have done some type of squat every day, just for fun, and have incorporated walking lunges for distance again. I will try to log this week!

WALKING LUNGES
200 meters

Bodyweight has been a very lean and light 160. Curious if I can build some more strength at this bodyweight…

I also got some new equipment for my home gym! I have’t really bought anything in awhile, so I got two new items. I found a used GHD that I am pumped about. I picked this puppy up for $175 at a used gym store about an hour from my house. It has been YEARS since I have used one of these, I can’t wait to get hamstring cramps again! lol
I also made a DB rowing handle. Some call it a Kroc Row handle, but I don’t row 200+ pounds so I refrain from calling it that. None the less, I just ordered a 2 ft piece of rod iron steel that cost me $13. I had some old standard plates and I bought a few more for .50 cents a pound. Overall, pretty cheap investment for some good implements! I love my home gym, one of my favorite spaces in the world. I have had it for just over 2 years and one of the best decisions I have ever made.

Did a 100m jog after my lunges and my right calf is feeling good. I will start back running, lightly, next Saturday. I set a 6 week rest period for that strained gastrocnemius to heal, so hopefully I can get some mileage in soon.

I’m not super strong at the moment, but my abs look good at least! Lol My wife prefers this, I prefer when I can front squat 405. Abs take very little work to achieve, just a bit of discipline with diet. A 405 front squat on the other hand, takes way more discipline and effort. In any case, at 38, I’m happy every day for the health that I have.

I don’t use supplements anymore, I have not in years. Instead I eat a ton of meat. Here is my post workout meal. I’ve been doing this lunch about three days week and always look forward to it. 12 ounces of flat iron steak, pintos with some cilantro, sautĆ©ed onions and roasted jalapeƱos. Also, I drink 32 ounces of plain goat milk kefir after, on my drive to work. Makes an 1800 calorie lunch. My total each day has been 3800 on average.
