Last Weeks Workouts
I thought I’d give you some samples of what I did in last week’s training. It’s a little unusual, but partly that’s the point. Right now I’m working out three to four times per week, but occasionally I adjust that to train for larger abilities. Let me explain: In this particular series I did four [...]

Adapt, Improvise and Overcome

The Usual Suspects – Part 2
