This Week (9/12-9/18)

This Weeks Rambles...

Here we go, week 3 post Ironman & week 2 back at the gym. You'll notice below that I've broken the typical weekly schedule out into a few different categories. The first is my Spin Class schedule, the second is any other additional workout that I'll be adding into the week.

Now that Ironman is over, I don't need to spend every free second of training swimming, biking, or running. This means more time for actual lifting in the gym. Last week was tough as I started getting back into lifting with a chest/back day, leg day and shoulder day.

Needless to say much of the strength I had built up over the past year disappear somewhere in the 5 months of cardio I was doing to prepare for Ironman. Never the less, I'm ready to get moving again in the weight room. I'll probably be going on the lighter side for the next few weeks and put an added emphasis on core conditioning. Feel free to join me if your around in the AM at LA Fitness for any of these workouts.
