Final training week before my competition, sort of. Regular followers know I’ve been prepping for a powerlifting meet coming up this Saturday. So last week’s training was my final week of prep for that. Problem is, our area is currently … Continue reading Kaizen; Training Log: Dec. 8-13, 2020
Had a small setback in training this week, with a cold/flu? wiping me out midweek. I did minimal training Tuesday, and none Wednesday and Thursday before getting rolling again Friday. This upcoming week will be by final week of training … Continue reading Kaizen; Training Log: Nov. 30-Dec. 7, 2020
Hello prowler, my old friend. About the only thing new this week was the reintroduction of the prowler for some conditioning. This is not an ideal addition three weeks out from a meet, but it is what it is as … Continue reading Kaizen; Training Log, Nov. 23-29, 2020
Wrapped up my Starting Strength block and switched to 5/3/1 meet prep this last week. Made steady progress on the 3×5 linear progression, my most sustained run of that type of training in quite a long time. It was probably … Continue reading Kaizen; Training Log, Nov. 9-22, 2020
I’ve never been someone who meditates. At least, not in the traditional sense. I’ve done some gratitude journaling. I write lyrics and poems sometimes, never to be shared with the world but just to think on life and such. I’ve even done some breathing practices, mostly box breathing. My most often used form of “meditation”, and for the majority of my life, involved headphones and a dark room. Often a glass whiskey.

Stan Efferding is an interesting cat who has built quite a name within powerlifting, bodybuilding and now performance coaching in both. He has became known as the “steak and rice” guy, but it is a little more detailed than that. … Continue reading Stan Efferding Seminar in THOR’s Powergym

Well. I did a thing last week. After training at home on my own almost exclusively for nearly two years now, and a year or so with some consistency, I signed back up at Main Street Gym. I trained at Main Street for a few years, back from 2006-20010(ish). Back when I was competing in powerlifting regularly and had training partners. Before I built the home gym in 2010 and before Crossfit. My gym at home has pretty much everything I need to train. I’ve got a power rack, horse stall mats, two benches, two barbells, a full dumbbell rack … Continue reading Kaizen: Oct. 12-18, 2020
I got out of the habit of updating the training log on here, but I’m still cranking away, despite currently working three jobs. I’m still working through the old Ditillo routines, repeating routines two weeks at a time. Monday, Sep. … Continue reading Kaizen: Sep. 28-Oct. 4, 2020
