Prowler pushing


Took a long weekend, went home and ate and slept a lot (i.e. Danny mini-deload).

Body Comp. Notes: 178.8 @ 10% BF

Also...I can't comment here at work but Aaron...it's called dynamically warming up. Check out some of the Parisi Warmups, fire hydrants, bird-dogs, cat-camel, toy-soldiers. I keep talking about this til I'm blue in the face, maybe eventually some of you will wise-up. I'd hate to see anyone get hurt.

  1. Hey Shanker, what was the thing about volume and intensity you told me a week or two ago? It was something like "intensity is the change, volume is the amount of change."

  2. That sentence doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Perhaps it was taken out of context?

  3. I think we were talking about strength improvement. So if intensity is high, then strength will improve, and the amount of volume is the amount of improvement.

  4. yea...that's basically the concept.

  5. Intensity means percentage of 1RM. This might be confusing, since a triple with 85% probably feels a lot more "intense" than a single with 85.001%. Also, volume is the total amount of weight lifted, which can be measured in various ways, depending on what "counts" and what doesn't.
