Notes:
BSF (Bible Study Fellowship) is the name of the bible study my buddy and I are leaders in. We have been getting together on Wednesday nights to train together a bit so named these days our BSF in the park days (barf, sweat, faint). Basically these are days where I get together with a guy way bigger, stronger and smarter than me and we push a sled and do any number of conditioning exercises together. I get the opportunity to pick his brain about training information during breaks and before and after. His training log is here. I train primarily alone but it is really nice to train with someone else who can really push me outside my comfort zone. The sled was easier today than last week. My nutrition and water intake was better as well than last Wednesday so I know that played a part in it. Just like conditioning for college basketball preseason, when my nutrition and hydration take a backseat for the day my performance suffers. Pushing the sled is still awful and I am still bad at it but today I was just a little less awful and terrible than last Wednesday, which is a nice sign of progress.
