"When one has made a decision...even if it will be very difficult to succeed by advancing straight ahead, it will not do to think about going at it in a long roundabout way. One's heart may slacken, he may miss his chance, and by and large there will be no success. The Way...is one of immediacy, and it is best to dash in headlong"

Rest Day

With another Performance Challenge workout coming up tomorrow, just went in this morning to do some upper body strength work. Hit the legs hard all week so wanted to give them a rest.

Thurs. Workout, 5:45a @ Fitness Formula:

Bench Press, 5-5-5
185-195-205

Pullups (palms facing each other): 5,5,5,8

Dips: 5 (+#0), 5 (+#45), 5 (+#55), 5 (+#65), 15 (+#0), 10 (+#0, tempo w/ 1 second pause at the bottom)

Shoulder mobility work

Thursday Diet:
5:30a: 1/2 protein shake
7:00a: rest of the shake, whey protein, coconut milk
8:30a: 2 egg scramble, turkey, 1 chicken sausage
10:30a: 1/2 bag jerky, nuts
12:30p: Potbelly's Farmhouse salad--2x chicken, lettuce, tomato, bacon, egg, non-fat dressing
2:30p: Think Thin protein bar
5:30p: handful of nuts

Back feels okay today, was carrying a box of presentations at work and felt a little tight, so debating if I should just lift and run tomorrow and then do the Performance Challenge workout on Saturday morning before coaching. We'll see.
