Fridays are always the toughest days to get in the gym. I stayed late in the office and it pushed back all my other plans

I skipped the gym but biked from my house to the movies to go watch "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" then biked back home about 9 miles round tripped. At least I'll get some cardio in.

Gonna do a 12 mile ride to go have brunch with my bro then bike back home.

Salty foods and water weight tho :francis:

Halfway through practical programming for strength training.

I'll share all the notes I made.

Good book.


Yall ever heard of this before?


Yea that's been around for a minute.

IIRC, one of Lyle's old articles breaks down the details of those multipliers.

Calorie expenditure is a moving target, though. Like all calculations, it's just a starting point.

Damn that's beast. I did 3 today and feel like shyt. Mad hills my way too breh

Yea, I just got home after doing another 10ish miles after brunch. Again the hills were crazy. About 0.5 mile from home I cramped up something bad and ran out of water.

I parked my bike and just sat on the ground. Both legs and my abs were cramping heavily. Luckily, a Nigerian community was having a BBQ close by. They ran to me with water and helped me get up and stretch out.
I swear those guys were angels cuz if not for them I’d have been in a serious situation.

Anyway, I walked my bike home after that. I think I was mad dehydrated from the brunch. All that coffee plus the exercise in the 90 degree heat did me in.

Was planning on biking to another brunch tomorrow but F that. I’m resting and taking the train in.

Great workout though. I need to install a bigger water bottle cage on my bike.

At the park about to hit a core workout on the bars. Seeing results from the past few weeks which is a huge motivation and momentum boost. Broke through the "forcing myself to workout" phase:blessed:

Going to hit 50 burpees to finish up :sadcam:

Baby steps better than no steps brethren.:salute:
