Ruggedness Training January 12212-12812

Falling behind on updates, most likely because I realize i don't have an audience. Have to remember I'll be my audience 3-5 years from now.

12212 (Sunday) Day 218 - 184 lbs. just hoping this is solid weight and not fat. Legs are looking ripped!! Home workout, abs and shoulder work.. lite. Good news from the scale, 14% body fat, suggests the weight gain is either muscle or water or a combo of both. Lifting at the Y (details later) Group Xercise at Temple... that's a good day for me!

12312 (Monday) Day 219 - 183.5 Purge Day Went to the YMCA before guts & butts, which is going to be my new routine. I went all out today, full body weight lifting, super sets, then went and led the session at Temple. My note says it was a Good overall workout day.

12412 (Tuesday) Day 220 184.5 Wondering what's up with the weight gain. Temple double shot today, PUMPED & Aqua Box.

I don't think I should be 'noid about the wt gain since the look is still leaner, measurements coming in less than a month. Continuing bod-wit stuff at work, maybe drink more water, eat more fruit & raw. Core is still strong, balance good but should probably stretch more and longer.

12512 (Wednesday) Day 221 - 182.5 Vietnamese (?) Post GX and that held me over. The wt drop is probably due to food & H2O, maybe a little muscle:fat change. Feel like I should run, possibly hit the Y for some HIIT on the treadmill and take a break from swimming until next week, unless the 15th St Y (Brooklyn) has a [pool (they don't). It's cool how cool stuff just seems to come my way. Thanks J-Doc for the sammich.
YMCA - 30 mins treadmill kept it level 2:30 mins warm up then 30 sec. sprint, then increase sprint time to 45 sec. decrease recovery time equally.
Then bod-wit stuff, hanging ab work, leg and torso stretch, All after Aqua Box!!
Seems like my legs got both stronger and heavier & my stride had widened. I don't remember sprinting 8-9.8 mph without my legs going like a lawn mower.Progress, I need HIIT again to ease back into long runs, I think.

12612 (Thursday) Day 222 Functional Fitness at the YMCA. 180.5

12712 (Friday) Day 223 - 182.5 headed to Brooklyn, Happy Birthday Stazja.. :-) Out drinking ruggedly.

12812 (Sat) Day 224 - No Wt. At this point I'm ready to call this a break, a decadent lost weekend. Lots of drink, eating out with bread and good food. Brooklyn eating and drinking traditions.
