Re: Zulu 1A, S&S and accessory guidance.
Pick S&S or pick Zulu. Don't try to do two programs at the same time.

Re: Mike Dolce Vid
You weren't kidding about nails on a chalkboard.. I notice he recommends some Base building style easy cardio too. That workout must take forever though....look at it SQ 5 x 5 85% MP 5 x 5 85% DL 5 x 5/ 85% (I really like this cluster for Operator though) Weighted Push-ups Weighted Dips Weighted Chi...

Re: Movie/Netflix Recommendation Thread
Just watched "The Barkley Marathons" on Netflix last night. Insane. It's a documentary about this weird ultra marathon set in the backwoods of Tennessee. Highly, highly recommended. Edit: just saw Caledda posted about this already. All the more reason for everyone to go watch it. I've bee...

Re: Which TB protocol should I use?
