I started on the “Paleo Diet” yesterday. Well, it’s not so much of a “diet.” Basically, you eat lots of protein, fruit, vegetables/greens and nuts. That’s basically it. You cut out all the other forms of carbs and stick to those. Heck, what else is

I finally got some sense knocked into me by Steve Gough (1 of my 2 coaches) and squatted my arse off yesterday. I squatted 5 separate times yesterday (with 4 being maximal, and the other one I Had to stop because of a crazy passing out incident). Anyway, here was what it looked like:

Haha we have been doing so many sets of 2 I just feel like I am beating my head against a brick wall! The training is absolutely brutal and grueling every single session. But, anything worthwhile is not going to be easy. The greater the goal the harder the work. You have to welcome th

Today we had just 1 session, which was nice to focus all energy on just one workout. It went like this: Power Snatch- up to 100kgx2 ,110kgx2, 115kgx2x2,  117.5kgx3x2 (259lbs) Power Clean- up to 110kgx2, 120kgx2, 130kgx2,135kgx2, 137.5kgx2,140kgx2, 142.5kgx2x2 (315lbs) Front Squat- up
