WEEK OF 6/6
Monday - Legs, Back, Chest + Swim + 3 Mile Run
Early morning, did the lifting first, then to the pool for a 3 mile run, then swam 6x100, 10” RI. Very tough workout for me, but I’ve got to add some volume now. Had Gatorade the whole time. Glad I was done with this workout.

Tuesday - AM = 3M Run + Swim; PM = Bike trainer
Went to pool for the run and swim, no biggie (the run). Did 6x100, 50” RI. Tough still, even with the recovery. Evening bike workout wasn’t too hard, it was just HOT in the garage. Did 5-6 x 2’ “hard”, with 3’ RI. Only trying to get my legs back to spinning, with some small hard efforts. Didn’t do AC+…just didn’t feel like it.

Wednesday - AM: Total Body Plus + 2M Run; PM: Trainer + A/C+
TB+ just kicks my tail in the morning. I know for sure that I won’t be doing this workout anymore as it’s just too draining on me. The 2M run was fine. Left hammy experienced a little cramping feeling. Evening bike was 5x4’, lower cadence. Nothing too tough at all, just way too hot. Did AC+ afterwards. Yuck.

Thursday - 2M Run + Swim
Legs felt heavy this AM run. But again, no biggie. Swim was 5x300, 30” RI. 2-4 were no fun at all. Did no flip turns; was too exhausted. Glad this is all I have today.

Friday - “30-15” + 4M run
Really did 20-10. Last two sets were 8 pull ups and 7.5 (couldn't get 10). 4 Miler was fine, left ham a little tender...unsure if it's a cramping issue or tenderness. Need to do ARX...

Saturday - “Long” Bike + 3M Run
on Bayshore. Did 3x10' at tempo pace; #2 was a bit too much. Felt good to get out there. Run was a piece of cake, felt VERY easy. Left ham again a little tight, but still unsure if it's a cramp or not. Ran in 7.50 or so. Need to do ARX!!

NUTRITION
This week only, I’m trying to contain all carbs as best as possible. Except on recovery drink/chocolate milk. Pretty sure it’s having an effect on my (the cramping in my left hamstring). Will only do this through Saturday, then back to a more normal eating pattern. Would like to drop a couple more lbs. of fat. Should be plenty effective.

Did this from Monday to Thursday. Saturday was John's party; so I ate like a horse.
