Comments
Sleep - Time and Quality: Not sleeping until ~0630 in the morning - mind just going too fast. Going to make serious attempts at getting back into a routine, because I NEED it!
Mood/Aggression: If you can't handle the truth, then don't the question. If you ask the question and you don't get the answer you want, I don't want your "you didn't give me what I wanted" drama bullsh*t. Grow a pair and deal with it!
Energy: All smiles.
Mental Focus and Clarity: I have another two assessments due this week, and this time I am going to manage my time better (since training comes first).
Stress: High.
Immune System: Everyone around me is getting sick and I'm fine.
Libido: Up there.
Joints: My knees were feeling it after nine minutes of my run.
Endurance: Great.
Strength: The new training programme will work on getting this back up again - finally; I am SO sick of high reps!
Pump: Awesome, and right from the first superset!
Vascularity: Knots and lines.
Quality of Training: HIIT was done outside, running - going to make the most of the lack of heat and run outside until it starts snowing. Only did one set of efforts, but they were enough . . . Resistance training was good. I have "baseline" statistics for this session to compare to over coming weeks. I was sweating a bit during as well, feeling very hot. Pump and vascularity were both strong. Feeling more like me . . . Post-Weights Cardio passed fast . . .
Recovery: I've just had three days OFF - I SHOULD be ok!
Body Composition and Look: 10.1% bodyfat. Going to be dropping back down to 8% bodyfat (leaner if I can) and then maintaining between 8-9% bodyfat.
Other Effects: Finding that I have been more tired than usual lately, which is odd considering that I haven't been training - definitely NOT training has NEGATIVE effects on me.
Other Notes: I started Alpha-T2 and Shred Matrix again today. Until I get my NeoVar Recomped, Shred Matrix will act as my nutrient repartitioner.
