PM Session: Five sets of: Front Squat x 2 reps Rest as needed Legs felt heavy and slow this afternoon so I built up to 275 for a double and called it good there Primary conditioning for today was the 40 minute mashup with the girls and rowing – definitely wanted to do that, but wouldn’t have the time/space, so I moved it to Saturday so I could do it as written and I am going to do it with the normal group I train with. on Saturdays. Did this instead: Every minute, on the minute, until you complete 200/150… Read more »

More exposure to the ski the same as the bike will be beneficial. Meters wise it’s similar to the tower but calories it’s probably -2-3 calories.

AM Session: For time: 300/200 Calories of Assault Bike Time = 23:10 (60 RPM avg) Coming into this my goal was at least sub 25:00 but the ideal goal was to hold the same splits for my 20 min test last week (which was 60 RPM or 12.95 cal/min). So doing the math there my goal time was 23:10 if I held my 20 min pace. I actually didn’t realize that I hit that time exactly until right now. I was really just trying to hold 13 cal/min. Either way I am making some great progress on these bike pieces.… Read more »

I think you should switch to one session per day and hit all the strength and strength accessory work. You gotta put on some mass buddy!
