5k RUN done for time
Time to up my running game. Miss the cardio high
This was brutal. Just grinded it out. My heart felt like it was trying to find a hole in my body to squeeze out of…
Sheer brutality as the heart rate can testify.
Dark zone all the way.
Pleased with my time as my running has been minimal post BB block.
Need to find a rhythm.
5k runs require a shit ton of recovery as well. Can’t see tomorrow’s weights session being a day in the park. Legs are already feeling like strawberry laces.

Before the military I ran 5ks and 10ks alternating every day while also lifting every day and eating in a deficit
It was hard at first but the body got used to it very quickly, only thing was that I don’t find distance running all that interesting

I plan to do one every 1 or 2 weeks for this block. I’ll see how I feel tomorrow. The mere thought of it now, as I sit here on my couch, nursing a coffee, fills me with dread

Complexes are a nice way to get conditioning work in without running (also you can include weights, which sounds fun until you try it and cry yourself to sleep as it was hard as hell)
You could use them in addition to running

Weights felt light today. Lower back felt fresh.
Slight doms from yesterday’s run.
Threw in some more accessory fluff today thanks to more gym time being available.
Clocking in

CONDITIONING WORK
Chins, dips, kb swings and rowing, done for time
Tough session. Interspersed with a bit of chat with a few gym members.
Enjoyed this session. Going to stick with it and bump up the reps every session
Have you tried the chin/pushup/lunge ladder thingy yet?
Not yet mate.
The one I have in mind is a GC session from Tactical Barbell 2.
Chins
Burpees
Dips
Squat jumps
10 - 1 ladder style.

Have you read Tactical Barbell 2?
It’s a conditioning goldmine. Check out the Duku-Duku challenge. It should be illegal

STRENGTH WORK
Threw in some accessory work at the end for triceps and delts, has some time to kill basically
Have a fitness rant building up inside me right now. Maybe for another day.
Working in a gym really does bring you into contact with a load of ‘know it alls’
In work right now so maybe tonight or tomorrow
Grinding…

Even by working out in a gym you get to meet more than enough of people who have it all figured out

This drained the shit out of me. Rowing stroke felt as weak as American beer.
Swings were hitting the shoulders hard as well. Just one of those days I guess. A Donkey Kong day so to speak.

Easy 30 odd minute run on the treadmill.

One of those weights flying up sessions today
Bring on next week🤪

Love this wee workout. I would have found this impossible pre TB however now it’s just a slow grinder.
Getting the work done
