Thanks brother
Admittedly 12 weeks of the same program and I’m a little bored, only a few weeks of peaking to go though so I’ll see it through. That’ll be a first haha
Well I haven’t made it to the gym yet this week with shift changes and OT and wedding planning. BUT I plan on going tonight and doing some conditioning
Maybe this
Had a good chat today with a retired STAR operator. We talked about training and preparation for selection etc. It’s still a looong way off, but we also spoke about them being aware of people well ahead of time and being physically prepared well ahead of time.
With that being said, I’m going to cut the peaking phase and focus on my engine. I’ve PRd the Olympic lifts and big three are feeling better than ever.
I think the main goal is have (special forces) needs to remain the goal. I’ll be following (attempting) the comptrain programming as I find it to be intelligent, very challenging, and also measurable
It’s time to be Unkillable again

I thought these guys only existed in the Resident Evil movies!
I haven’t accepted it yet, but I’m still having an internal chat about my training. Training has been my sole hobby most of life. I paint myself into a corner with a preset training week and put my sessions ahead of all other events.
I’m not getting younger. I don’t think I’m going to get much bigger without 110% effort. I think I could maintain my physique but not my 1RM strength by backing off. I’d like to figure out how to loosen up on the training and improve (and then maintain) my conditioning while basically staying in maintenance mode for everything else.
CrossFit might fit the bill but I don’t have the space or equipment for most of those workouts. If I can drop my obsession with pre-planned sessions and strength goals then I might be able to give HIIB a run.

Have you been introduced to Mr. Alsruhe? (I know you have, but I think his programs would fit the bill here.)
Hahaha yeah they’re south Australias answer to swat. Thankfully no Nemesis zombies though
