    Well, the whole family finally caught the Wuhan flu. Managed to avoid it for two years. Haven't trained since 7/4. Will give it the weekend to recover fully and then start back up on Monday.

    Well that little break was longer than expected. I'm really detrained from what little momentum I had going. Tonight was McGill trunk work followed by a circuit of chins, dips, bodyweight squats, KB presses. Then a few sets of neck work and that was it. Will be doing stuff like this, rucking, running, and bagwork for the next month or so while I drop some fat and get my core endurance up to snuff. The standard is a 90s side plank and 120s trunk extension hold before doing any axial loading; and my numbers are nowhere near that plus I have a huge left/right imbalance in my obliques that has been that way for a decade now. Not sure if I will log any of this since I don't think pushups, pullups, and rehab are too interesting.

    Default Operation 135

    starting strength coach development program
    Training has been pretty aimless recently. I have figured out a form of training, however, that accords with certain medium and long-term goals I have set for myself. Medium-term goal is this: I am 39 years old and have never seen my abs. When I walked into my freshman year of college, I weighed 135lbs and still couldn't see them. Allowing for fluctuation, that's almost exactly 30lbs away from today, I've been weighing in an average of 165 each morning. So the medium term goal is to hit that weight. I have set a deadline of my birthday which is in June, that's 34 weeks which at a pace of 1lb/week should be more than doable. Once that is achieved I have a longer term goal which is to finally become an adult male, i.e. 200lbs - but with a reasonable level of fitness and good health metrics.

    The setup is designed to appeal to my fuckarounditis which I must have the worst case of all time. Since I am focused on fat loss I am not to concerned about pounds on the bar but just increasing my cardio, mobility, and working on certain issues I have with my shoulders and lower back. It looks like this:

    Day A
    Rope Skipping, Bag Work, Neck, Abs

    Day B
    McGill Protocol - lower back and core endurance
    Calisthenics, kettlebells, sled drags, sprints

    I train in the mornings and depending on schedule may get in a long walk, ruck, yoga, or something like that in the evenings. I have a few different programs for the B day that I will cycle through so I don't get bored.

    Regarding diet, I'm shooting for an IF protocol with 2 meals a day totalling about 1600 calories, P100 C 200 F 25. The IF is not for any particular reason except I'm self employed and it works better with my schedule.

    Operation 135... here we go

    Day 1.
    A1. 10 minutes rope skipping
    B1. Heavy Bag 5 x 3 minute rounds
    C1. Neck extensions, 10 x 4x25
    D1. Ab wheel, 4x10
