Strength and Power development is different. We need LONG REST PERIODS

Hypertropy is different – it builds the size? You want to be inefficieny by resting less.

You are going to failure. 20 effective reps. The first set doesnt count.

15 to 30 second rest period!

Central Park has been my jam.

I touched the 5 boroughs.

To be honest, the training for the marathon over the last two years helped me feel more connected to NYC than any other time before.

I remember when I ran in Switzerland. And in Atlantic City. This type of running helps me feel connected to the city and nature. It REALLY helps me clear my head. I love it and this is my life going forward.

Next up will be – waking up before the city that never sleeps wakes up, and going for a run.

Oh boy it was tough.

My leg muscles are weak. Cardio is a bit bad.

I am trying the new form with raised legs. Lets see

But the good

I love it. There is a peace. My mind likes to think during that period.

By now, I know the idea is to train, not workout. And I like to plan. And I like to be able to plan things / edit stuff and track things on my laptop. The phone / watch is just for tracking.

I will start super simple.

1. first, just go to the gym and do basic stuff
2. Then start getting familiarized with the weight room
3. Then we implement a strategy

This will take a month to fully start. By Jan, I want to be hitting stride.

Remember, I have time. No pressure on that front.

I know what to do for diet too.

Everything is clear this time.

Basically for me this will mean keep some running but focus on strength.

Some notes:

• I tried that Activ thing. I am trying it. I think it helps?
• But I got bloated. Hunger seems to reduce.
• That guy you know, he cant eat anymore. He pukes stuff out.
• The bloating was a bit annoying.

• Semaglutide history
