Saturday 1/9
Operator Week 1
Back Squat 335 lbs
Bench Press 225lbs
WPU 25lbs

So after 3 sets of squats I felt some intense soreness in my legs. It's in the same spot as I would feel it if I laid off squats for a while. I had thought the front squats (which is what I've been using for several months) would have covered me, but no. So tomorrow I might be fine or I might need to scramble the week's schedule a bit.

Sunday 1/10
Fast 5

It wasn't fast, but it was certainly uncomfortable.

Monday 1/10
Operator Week 1

Worked through the leg soreness, doing minimal sets for this first week. Also lowered my squat weight for week 1 to 315. Starting at 335 was going to get .... unpleasant later. I might add it back the next block.

Tuesday 1/12
600s x6

The one upside is that I've gotten the tough stuff for the week over by Tuesday. Just lifting, jogging, and rest until the weekend.

Tuesday 1/19
HIC #5 x5

So, I'd be doing my 600 resets using the protocol for HIC 3, but running on a treadmill. But today at lunch I was looking through the book and saw that (I take it?) you should be using #5 to do resets on the treadmill. At any rate, that's what I did today.
