Recovery Wednesday
Hustled to the gym first thing this morning for a short workout: 20 min elliptical, then some yoga and foam rolling. I’m lightly all over sore after yesterday’s workout– except for my lower back, which is feeling more sore. Hopefully … Continue reading
I can see the top from here
5x5B today: squats, OHP and deadlift. It was a tough workout today, and I suspect that I’m getting closer to the weights where I’ll start failing reps. I hate failing reps; I hate being close to failing. At that point … Continue reading
Catching up
Yeah, this blog seems to have fallen towards the bottom of my list of priorities. Thankfully workouts have not. I’ll gladly post less if I have more time to run. Here’s what I’ve been up to: Friday: treadmill 5k. My … Continue reading
Struggles and weaknesses
Today’s workout was a put-my-head-down-and-get-to-work-stravaganza. It’s been a while since I was this physically and emotionally tired after a lifting session. Ironically, I made a point to get really good sleep last night– so no idea how much of a … Continue reading

Two long workouts
Phew. Yesterday’s first: since I had an unplanned day off (glad to be back in the office today!) and excellent weather, I took advantage of that and went for a long run. Initially I dialed in 5 miles, but by … Continue reading

Friday in the weight room
TGIF and it’s bench day to boot. *tired happy dance* Squat, bench and OHP on the agenda for today. Bench and OHP are not supposed to be on the same day, but I swapped OHP and rows last time so … Continue reading
Sick squats
"Siiiiiick squats bro" No, not like that. Bronchitis. It sucks. I stayed home sick yesterday (still had to call into some meetings and send emails) and, since I also had a zillion meetings today, I dragged my butt into the … Continue reading
Run between the raindrops
This weather, wtf? It’s almost 70ºF out there. I’m certainly not complaining, just getting whiplash. Along with the warmth has come a lot of rain, and I was hoping to take advantage of a break to squeeze in a run … Continue reading
Breaking down my bench press
Yet another day of running around at work. I’ve been working at home in the evenings lately; I can’t get a chunk of time to focus on things in the office. I hate this. But the gym is my happy … Continue reading
Q: How do you eat an elephant?
A: One bite at a time. Not that I would eat an elephant, that’s awful. Anyway, right now life is feeling like I’ve just got too much going on. I can’t decide if I’m disorganized, am having poor time management, … Continue reading
