How the heck did i miss this log? I swear I’m like one of the most active users on this site. Anyways congratulations on dialling down the volume and getting your training together! In for your log man.
I’ll definetly work those in on the weekends, I really can’t believe that this gym isn’t open on the weekends really. It’s a shit town in northern NY the guy has a glorified shed in his back yard and calls it a gym. It has all the equipment though so that’s a plus… none of the fancy shit though. Since its such a odd gym and situation I’m gonna talk to the owner about maybe working something out with me for the weekends.
Thanks man, I appreciate it!

Looks like you’re making steady progress and staying consistent - well done! . Have you found a workaround for the gym’s closed times? That can be a dedicated cardio day - you, the ground, your feet, and some speedy distance covered. And maybe the dry heaves ![]()
@TriednTrue they’ve been dedicated to just that along with more core work… I tend to always go halfass after my workout days on core so my off days now consist of a dedicated core workout and hiit.
Perfect! It’s easy to lose track of real exercise when surrounded by machined and routines. While I thoroughly enjoy lifting, I also find non-gym exercising a refreshing change of pace.
It definetly helps keep things fresh and interesting…
