Training Log: Entry 3721

BRIDGE WEEK

PM WORKOUT (1400)

15 rounds of Armor Building Complexes, EMOM, with 10kg bells

4 mile easy run

Notes:

• It’s the start of the bridge week, and also a holiday, so I slept in, had another weekend style breakfast, and joined in with the family on the ABF. Used the Valkyrie’s bells during her downtime on the EMOMs. It actually felt tonic on my hurt shin/knee, which was nice. Immediately afterwards, joined the better half for a run. Kept it leisurely: definitely passed the talk test. Was a good test of my new shoes and how my knees would hold up. Things seem promising.

• Family meal tonight was spaghetti with piedmontese meat sauce, some buttered sourdough toasted in ghee, and then 2 of the Valkyrie’s cookies and a homemade banana bread muffin, all with some local raw honey.

• I am in a real good mental state, because I’m just one day into the bridge and already excited to get back to training. I REALLY want to get to building again, but I’m thinking that 3 more weeks of Operator pro makes the most sense. It means gaining all the way up to my cruise in May, which I can then continue feasting there and then kick into the summer on another bout of Operator to lean out. I’m thinking, with that one, if I don’t have a competition on the horizon, I’m going to do something I’ve been promising myself for a while and make it a Crossfit/WOD based run of Operator.

• Getting in the daily holds still. Curious how it will pay off for the Heracles hold.
