October 10

20 minutes of hill sprints.

Brought up a 100 lb barbell to do some backyard stuff for some extra conditioning.

 

Circuit looked like this.

Shrugs/Clean+press/BB curls

All with hill sprints in between.

 

Trying to shed some weight and start lifting at competition weight (165), I'm only sitting at 171 now. But I need to increase my cardio

Really happy with my pulls today. My energy levels were super high, I didn't take long breaks and I felt strong. Besides the callous tears, I couldn't really ask for a better back day.

BW 180.

Finally hit 180 pounds today. Going to start shedding off that fat starting today. Getting my protein in and cutting out some of the carbs I don't really use/need. We'll see how well this goes. This is the first time I'll be cutting, should be fun.
