500m row in 1:28. The gym record is 1:26. I had to stop rowing for 10 seconds because a dry erase board fell on my head. I think I was sabatoged.

Various Standing Ab work with a Green Band- 200 total reps.

More Soon.[/quote]

My best 500m is 1:21.5 (done to win a friend a gym membership at a fair).

Does this beat yours (I am 7 inches taller than you but have much worse conditioning and strength) or are you saying you would have got 1:18 if there hadn’t been foul play?

Marius Pudzianowski did 1:18 …

Ha. Nice. I think it would have been a little bit faster without getting a concussion at 250m.

Friday-1-21-12- DE Upper-

Mob’d some stuff.

Bench-Fat Bar- 225x10x3

Fat Bar Row/Tri Push Down-

PM Training

Murder Log in 8:45. Murder Log = 10inch log with loadded up to 187lbs. 30 reps of clean and presses as fast as possible.

Benched the 30lb DBs for 7 minutes… wanted 10 but my hands went numb and I dropped a dumbbell with mear face bone shattering accuracy… decided 7 minutes was good instead.

Saturday-1-21-12- Just stretching. I’m beat.

finally, a new entry!

Have you read or heard of the book The 4-hour body? Some of the concepts in your blog are discussed in that book including your latest entry. My wife read the book and would randomly tell me random information that I’ve only heard of from your blog before.

Yea, that was an awesome book. Tim Ferriss is a smart dude. He talked more about cold therapy as a means of weight loss (cold baths, ice packs on your neck, working out in the cold, etc.). Hydrotherapy/contrast showers are more used in rehab and physical therapy settings. It works wonders after hard training.

interest in trying your Murder Log. Did you clean and press every rep or clean when necessary and did you actually eat your 9,000 + calories directly after? lol have fun with the multi-shirt on tues…they are rediculous

Yep, clean and press every rep. If you follow the equation I made up, its more like 38,000 calories. hahaha. And yes, I ate them all.

I’m shooting for 700 off a three board but we will see.

Sunday- DE Lower- Deloading thank God.- 1-22-12

Think the shitty sleep could be related to the recent dietary changes?

From reading in your log earlier, you said it would be beneficial to attempt to read supertraining? Im getting an amazon gift card from selling back some textbooks and was going to pick that up to read. Would you say to get that or go with something else haha.

Love reading your log and blog man, its always very informative as well as funny.[/quote]

Supertraining is great. Special Strength Training Manual for Coaches (verkashanky’s last book) is also great. Block training is great. You really can’t go wrong with anything you are going to learn something from.

I am almost through book 3 of the hunger games. Those are great too.[/quote]
If you had to choose one of those three to start with, which one would you go with?
