    I’m out of town most of this week, so Monday I did the Monday and Tuesday programs. Death by deadlift volume, then 3rep max lo bar back squat. Got a nice little PR of 3reps at 60 kg. Followed by 3 sets of 8 reps. at 90 lbs bench. Super tired and super happy and super hungry all day Tuesday.

    Greetings kids, Gam3rguy, I like your lineup for vacation and your hard labor is a drop in the bucket for you. Thanks for the post quikdogs. Lord knows lifting has certainly did my knees a world of good. Keep the motivation coming. Full body lifting completed. Welcome newbies. Have a great day everyone.

    Hi cool kids,
    Managed another great hike yesterday. This one was 9km and took us 3 hours. It was tough as the park received a lot of snow. It made walking a bit of a challenge as the ground was slippery. Sure was beautiful though.
    Here are a couple of pictures.

    @Beeps2011 Happy Birthday! :)

    Got a quick run in yesterday. Was pressed for time, so did 4.5km. Better than nothing. It was bridge night last night, so that meant "dessert". :p

    Did a HIIT workout this morning called "20 hard minutes".

    Sprint 20 yds. - rest - sprint back 20 yds.
    Push the prowler 20 yds. - rest - push it back.
    Sprint 20 yds. - rest - sprint back 20 yds.
    Pull the 300 lb. anchor chain 20 yds. - rest - pull it back.
    Sprint 20 yds. - rest - sprint back 20 yds.
    Weighted carry 20 yds. - rest - carry it back.
    Repeat this entire cycle.

    Takes 20 minutes on 50 second intervals. No one was talking at the end. I'm going to do this once or twice a week on non-lifting days.
