Training Update 2.3.13 to 3.6.13

Time for an update on my training.

Check out how I am doing after the jump....















Not going to bother you with loads of commentary, just the facts. I ended up taking a week off due to the flu but did squeeze in a "Do Anything You Want Day." Which I will generally do to invigorate or lighten up my work outs from time to time..or if not feeling well. These days are about the only days I will actually do a max. Sounds counter productive, but it really is not. I figure if I feeling blah or ill it is the perfect time to max. In other words...this is what I can do on a bad day....sort of thing.
