If at first you don't succeed...

Day 2 of the purification program. So far so good. Some minor cravings but they were knocked out by some gymnema.

Started my super secret training routine today, for a second time. Today was my medium day and it was doable but left me pretty toasted.

Also took some starting measurements.
Hips 38"
Waist 33 1/4"
Chest 38"
Bodyfat 14%
Weight 145#

A Glitch in the matrix

So I had plans of a new program this week, however I've been experiencing a non-stop runny nose and a low grade fever. I guess I'll be putting it on hold until next week. I'll probably just do some joint mobility and some hip flexor and hamstring work instead.

updates

I just attended a seminar on minerals taught by Dr. Michael Dobbins, this was very enlightening. There is some great research coming out on how iodine deficient we are and the problems associated with that deficiency. Cancer, immune function, fibrocystic breast disease, possibly even birth defects. I don't want to attempt to give advice taking this mineral but a little reading will drive home the point of it's importance. For more check out the research here
though I think his product might be a bit strong for most people to start with.

Secondly I am undertaking a new kettlebell training routine the next 6 wks. A routine that is TOP SECRET and I am fortunate enough to be a guinea pig to test it out before the info is released to the public. I plan on getting some measurements and maybe video tomorrow so I can track my progress as far as body changes go. Next week I am starting the SP Purification Program which should help me make even better gains on the routine. I'll chronicle my experience with the purification as I go along. I'll be eating a lot cleaner than I usually do, so it should be interesting.

Last night was the first night of the top secret training and it is going to kick my butt. But in a good way.

Another week

Didn't do much monday,
Wed was snatches with 16kg , 3/3 on minute for 5 minutes , then 2/2 on minute for 15 mins. Just adding a little density as I go.
Did some leverage block wrist curls and plate curls

Saturday - Another horseshoe heart and MP with globe DB. Loaded to 46# now, 1/1 on the minute for 20 mins.

Pullups - bw x 5 x 2

DL - 155# x 5 x 2

Per advice from strongman Adam Glass I'm working singles on my plate curls, 10# end of post, 1/1 x 2

I'm probably going to add some form of a squat into the routine. Leaning toward bulgarian split squat. No big volume just a little to stimulate the quads.

I've also been working on quad and hip flexor flexibilty as I am realizing it is holding me back in other areas of my body.
