Really good today today. Still at 210, but strength is improving so I won’t complain! Trying to prepare for the spring rugby season, so I’m phasing in more conditioning. I’d like to cut the cardio to get my weight up. But, I felt fast as hell sprinting and it’s all worth it to jack some motherfuckers up.

I just realized I did not state my purpose for training yet. I play rugby at the University of Alabama and I’m coming off of shoulder surgery. If my shoulder holds up, I plan on playing rugby until I cannot play anymore. I hope to end up getting paid to play somewhere, even if it’s just semi-pro.

It’s about time you put a log up somewhere that I’ll actually go through the trouble of looking for. Can’t wait to read along.

Switched up the week so that I would be doing deadlifts immediately before my feast so that I cruise into my deload week nice and fat. Also did squats to a box about 2 inches below parallel…HOLY SHIT. I will be doing those from now on because they kicked my ass.

Just thought I’d share some lifting music…This song puts me in full-on beast mode, probably because it has to do with ritual sacrifice. I literally feel like hurting things when I listen to this.

Haha It’s an exercise that you choose if you’re slightly masochistic! I can’t tell if you’re joking, but thanks for checking the log anyways :slight_smile:

This is a good example, courtesy of Westside Barbell. There are several different colors with varying amounts of tension, green bands being one of them.
