Notes
I’ve been bad about being consistent with my workouts and even worse about logging them. Now that I’m back at college I should have fewer distractions. I’m doing a quick cut of about three weeks cause I gained some fat over Christmas.

Gonna do what Brian Alsrue does and alternate squat/deadlift and bench/press movements each week on dynamic effort days. Hopefully that will cut down on DE day time a bit.

First conditioning workout I’ve done using a dice based template I’ve developed with the inspiration of @T3hPwnisher. Still tweaking it before I show y’all but it has promise.

2022-01-12T05:00:00Z: AM ACFT

ACFT Score
Deadlift: 100
Power Throw: 74 (I absolutely suck at this for whatever reason)
HRPU: 100
Sprint-Drag-Carry: 92
Leg Tucks: 100
2 mile: 84
Total: 549

Notes
Pretty good ACFT score for me but nowhere near where I want to be, especially since I’m going infantry. Somewhat disappointed. Need to put much more effort into running and the standing power throw.

Was feeling super lethargic so I decided to stop here.

Notes
Was feeling sick this whole workout I think because I had too much caffeine. Still, I got in a PR which is nice. Hopefully I’ll be better tomorrow.

I’ve been bad about logging my training again. It’s snowing where I am so it’s not like I have much to log other then daily work anyway. I’m gonna do my daily work like OPM again, but starting out with less volume and working up slower.
