ok, 10 days off of the program sucked.
the last time I did the workout I had something go 'sproing' in my right hip on the 3rd set of lunges so I stopped them and haven't done anything but stance training since then.
I tried a lunge and still felt it a little bit so I didn't do those but replaced them w/ another two sets each of squats and bootstrappers. So, yesterday's legs was
4x25 squats
4x25 bootstrappers (failed @ 16 on the 3rd set, completed others???)
2x25 squats
2x25 bootstrappers
also did another set of 25 each during class warmup
higher rate of failure on the downhill side of the pushups which ****ed me off since the last time I only failed on one set.
pull ups were ok but still not completing a full ROM
need to add two days of cardio in there somewhere.
thinking monday and friday
Sun - Rest
Mon - Class + 30 min interval based cardio
Tues - Class
Wed - Workout #1 + Class
Thur - Class
Fri - 30 minute cardio
Sat - Workout #1
Class for me is just teaching, but I do warm my own class up most of the time.

when the mods, or popular opinion, deem a thread worthy of sticking around they fix it to the top of the forum.
old threads will drop to the bottom and off the first page when they stop getting replies.

been doing a lot of deadlifts and full body type lifts lately. 3 or more days a week. they've been helping a lot with my overall body strength - also seems to be burning a lot of fat too (probably because of how frequently i'm doing them)

After a few weeks of focusing on weight gain, I made it up to about 190lbs . . . and quickly dropped to my current 180-185lbs. Eating about 5000kcal a day, with at least 200 grams of protein spread out over 8 meals, 5 solid, 3 shake.
At 190lbs, I deadlifted a 1RM of 315. A far cry from my 420 at 210lbs, but I'll take it.
Got back into squatting . . . not back squat, which is never going to be an option for me again, but front squatting. Not throwing around tremendous poundages, but my form and flexibility is coming along. Not going to worry about maxing for a long while.
I can one-arm dumbbell snatch a 70lbs dumbbell with my left arm. Can get an unloaded Olympic bar for one rep with my right.
My karate technique is slowly, slowly improving. My stamina is up, though. I am scaling my training hours back, to a total of 8 hours personal training time, not counting teaching kids or actually participating in class. When I do that, I will be on 10 hours a week. I feel that this will help me recover more, prevent a few overuse injuries that are trying to reoccur, and let me train more often instead of longer. I've noticed a skill drop when I train 3+ hours a day. Two hours seems to be my sweet spot.

I trained beer lifts, brat hangs, and fajita presses with full dedication for the last year.
I also go my college degree, but to the penalty of losing all mass.
Somehow maintained most of my weight though... Which despite the small belly was quite pleasing.
Anyhow...
Tomorrow is the day.
Ill keep things posted as they change.
For any of you who feel bad about your training...
I lost about 8-9 inches off of my arms, legs turned to toothpicks, and my pecks all but disappeared. Not really distressed about it... I figured I had earned the laziness for a little while. Itll be nice to be back though.

Well...
A month later...
Ive gotten quite a bit bigger. About 10 pounds.
Weight I can press and endurance have gotten significantly better.
Good stuff.
