Daily Report:
Notes: I am liking working out at 5:00am. It gets my day off to a good start. I need to be conscious of taking more time to warm up and get loose. Smolov squat cycle is something that I am enjoying so far. I expect that to change in the next 2 weeks though.
Body: Feels alright, I still need to get more sleep. My left hamstring/groin is giving me some problems due to squatting 3 days in a row, it is just tight.
Sleep: 6.5 hours (still need to get up to 7)
Nutrition: I have found that I need carbs in the morning, especially post workout. I am going to start experimenting with more carbs in the morning then backing off throughout the day. Post workout meal today was 28 oz of 1% milk w/ 1 scoop of whey, 2 cups of Grape Nuts w/ blueberries and then coffee. I have used this post workout meal in the past and I definitely feel it has a positive effect on my recovery so I will try to do this every day.
Weight: 191# after post workout meal.
Reading: Job 3-4 (Poetry)
