Daily report
  • Body: Chest/shoulders sore.
  • Sleep: Woke up with sore throat at 7am; postponed first workout. Stuffy throughout day. Will sleep well tonight.
  • Nutrition: Good.
  • Notes: Smooth barbell work. Strong effort on cleans. Wasn't feeling great for the 2nd workout -- effort was ~70%. Squat cleans slowed me down... dumbbells are very uncomfortable for high reps of that movement.

Climb, tabata

15:00

45 minutes of muscle activation therapy to assess shoulder

60 minute treadmill climb
15% elevation for distance: 3.25 mi

rest 2 minutes

tabata tredmill intervals
12.5% elevation @ 7.5 MPH (8.0 for 8th set)

Daily report
  • Body: Great, except shoulder. Very uncomfortable, but still have full ROM. I am praying that this is not something I'll need surgery on. I'm heading in for a referral to the orthopedic doctor tomorrow, I'm planning on having an MRI.
  • Sleep: Good.
  • Nutrition: All day fast.
  • Notes: Good workout to get moving again. Played around with a barbell after the run. I can do all pressing movements with little pain, its just very uncomfortable. Weird, I know.. but I think this means that I injured the cartilage (labrum), instead of the muscle. Focus for the week: nutrition and recovery.

Monday active rest

21:00

Treadmill climb
15% elevation -- 60 minutes
3.45 miles

Daily report
  • Body: Very sore legs. Also, I have an odd pain in my right arm. This is either from rowing yesterday or I slept on it wrong, but external rotation is difficult and slightly painful. Nothing major, but might affect chin ups and rowing tomorrow.
  • Sleep: Enough. Short nap ~4pm
  • Nutrition: Very good until dinner. Went out for indian food. Tasty, but fried and quite starchy.
  • Notes: Good rest day. Did this one late to work off dinner. Going out of town Wednesday night through Friday; may miss a session.
