World-Class Fitness in 100 Words




*
Eat meat and vegetables, nuts and seeds, some fruit, little starch and no sugar. Keep intake to levels that will support exercise but not body fat.*Practice and train major lifts: Deadlift, clean, squat, presses, C&J, and snatch. Similarly, master the basics of gymnastics: pull-ups, dips, rope climb, push-ups, sit-ups, presses to handstand, pirouettes, flips, splits, and holds. Bike, run, swim, row, etc, hard and fast.*Five or six days per week mix these elements in as many combinations and patterns as creativity will allow. Routine is the enemy. Keep workouts short and intense.*Regularly learn and play new sports.—

Travel Day. 

Left this am at 7a to wad to Ohio for nationals.  With layovers, didn't get to Ohio Til 3:30p. Worst travel experience of my life. It now 1a. Just got back to hotel after hour drive back to airport to pick up our lost luggage.  

We did hit globo gym earlier for them to loosen up. I did power Clean 1RM in nanos (all I had), no belt an Pr'd with 280# power clean .... 5# pr

Pretty good eating all day. Except for chips and salsa at Applebee's. 

I think why was killing me wasn't so much bad quality, as lack of quantity. 

Shoulder r throbbing. Both honestly, but one more. Very tight traps, biceps etc.
Going to spend tomorrow - Sunday hiring the gym down here once day just aerobic stuff. Stay loose, swim etc

In hopes of starting Monday on the right foot.

D. powell raise 3x8
*** did right arm, no problem. Couldnt do 1 on left shoulder. Holy shit, very bad pain. So whatever has developed in shoulder, this motion brings out the worst in it. Wonder if can ease way into this somehow. Was using 15lb db, cause lightest we have. Might try with light bands tomorrow, so if can help with shoulder issue.

ISleep night prior : 2a - 7:45a

Body: shoulder isn't great. Back is very tight sore from yest 

Programming:
A. Power Clean 6x2 @85-90% (235-250)
235-235-240-245-245-250 - all makes 
***dont know what it is but I have zero legs!!! Even off floor this feels heavy. Pull feels like I got nothing. Made all, but harder than should be at this weight. 
B. Power Clean + Push Jerk - Tng 3 rm. 
did 225# and got it but shoulder instantly acted up.  Third jerk wasn't pretty.  So called it there to do workout.  
C. 
400m run @90%
Then, 21-15-9 of,
Power cleans (135)
Ring Dips
Time- quit at like 5 minutes. I don't WTF is going on but I can breathe. Came in from run, started PC and was dying!!!  Couldn't even get first 21 straight RIDICULOUS!  Been like this since last; I don't understand. Haven't eaten much different. Unsure if its the heat. It's like an anxiety type "can't breathe". Couldn't even so ring dips based on breathing!  This is bafflingly and tremendously pissing me off. 
Goin to cool down and give this a go after kids class.  
Did "Elizabeth" before kids.  Pouring rain and tornado warnings, go figure. Time was 4 something. Minutes slower than PR. Not sure what's up with me these last few weeks. 

Nutrition: 
Breakfast :  eggs + bacon + strawberries + OJ w/ hmb + beta alanine 

Snack: builder bar + cashews 

Pre WOD: hmb + cytoblast + bcaas 

Post WOD: sfh recovery + oats + bcaas + glut amine

Snack: builder bar + egg sandwich. 

Dinner: grassed beef on taco shell

Pre bed: pro strength. 

Nutrition has sucked. Sleeping has sucked. Business is going well but losing focus and track of other things. Individual programming is going awesome and gaining athletes. People seeing results and loving it. The obsession with gaining knowledge, learning is negatively affecting me now and hurting my performance and gains. Need to get a balance on this before it sets me way back.
