Ruggedness Training September: 91811-92411

This entry brings me up to date, Ready to close out September and move into October which means, heavy lifting for the next 5 or 6 months. Also have to train for the Urbanathalon at the end of october, so I think this part of ruggedness will be back to running the woods, the normal GX stuff and some HEAVY upper body training.. back to where I started.. light squats various leg work for toning, speed and ignition... and I should be good!!! I'm psyched.

91811 - Day 92 - Another day of class... then work, then I can get back to my routine for a week.

91911 - Day 93 183.5 don't know whether it's the change in the weather, the diet of lowered activity, but weight gain up and intensity level down. Feel kind of bad for taking TNT class to far to hard.. and need to keep GnB (Gutts n Butts) more disciplined. Meanwhile - wake up, trampoline, more calf and ankle work.. ankles and feet feel weak and sore these days... - don't over do it tho - haven't run in too long, maybe friday I'll ditch the gym and run a lil bit. New push up week not sure what to call these, but my hands are behind my chest, trying to push up from a dif angle, It was tough but I did 3 sets.. 2, 5s and a 10.. OY!

92011- Day 94 181.5 with 28-30% (as measured by the scale) body fat. I am wondering if over night creatine drinks are causing this? This has only been a couple of days, plus I drink tea at work too. Maybe I didn't get enough H2O yesterday? Better keep an eye on this... Oh yeah more honey than usual too. and No psyllium husk. PUMPED and Aqua Box today. two good energetic sessions. My legs, esp inner thighs are sore... must be the deep squats maybe.. I like the feeling must do this more often.

92111 - Day 95 - See book? Aqua GX (From the book 184.5) I wondered if I was holding food in b/c of no phys-husk, elim felt bad, hard and... well TMI just in case someone else is reading.. in case you are however and stools are slow moving and hard, try psyllium husk.. it's awesome. 5 mins on tramp today took 4l Lunges up to 10s.. (at home) inner thigh was ignited, and felt like it would cramp up but didn't.

92211 - Day 96 184.5 A strong GX session at the Y I was super hyped and energetic. How do I maintain this?? Suddenly legs stopped hurting... as in soreness, it was a GREAT day!!

92311 - Day 97 - Rainy slow start Friday But I'm going to the Y to lift. 184.5 seems like good solid weight. clothes are no tighter and body fat seems to be steady in the range I'm used to. Almost 1/3 of the way through. Wow, today was tiring, despite that I hit lots of stations starting out with free squats, in fact that was the first stop on a leg rotation, to calf raises, anterior shin flexes, lots of leg stretching trying to open up the lower pevis/groin area. Then a round of 1 legged inverted leg presses, and dumbbell presses - 2 sets of 20 w/ 60 lbs, then moved to 70s... it's time to ease into heavier weights and lesser reps. However my body/mind has gotten used to doing 20-30 reps so the 70 lb eps were 15 and ten. T-bar rows were challenging b/c I was fatigued and hadn't done them for a while. 3 sets 10,12,15.. single leg extensions and that was it for me. I'm satisfied with the session

92411 - Day 98 182.5 H2O is low, I can't remember the last time I did a sun salutation. All day I'll be in class today. Jumped on tramp already. The day caught up with me, exhaustion.
