M4:D30 (D330) Improbable but real

What's on my mind today?

Today was hectic and stressful at the same time.  Work was not cooperating.  I spent the entire day putting out fires I shouldn't have had to deal with.  I hired a new developer 3 days ago and let him go today because he could not do even the most basic coding.  It was embarrassing to hear him try to explain it away.

My results continue to be improbable but real.  The principles behind what I am doing obviously work and for a reason.  The body response to an intense stimulus.  Eating alot and getting enough rest help the progress to continue.

I attended a hockey practice today with my son and his goalie coach stopped by.  He gave my son some advice on staying out of the net for long shots so that the net looks smaller to the shooter.  It seemed to work as he had his best practice all week. 

My only advice today is to eat right and lift heavy (ie. do resistance training with a weight that is challenging to you).  Good luck!

Today's workout was interesting to me.  I have been increasing the weight on the thigh extensions every single workout and yet I still hit 12 repetitions.  I then upped the weight on my calf raises and still managed a high number of repetitions.  I am still in a slight state of shock at how well I can progress using this system.  It kind of boggles my mind because I am working out my entire body 3 days a week and I am not getting into overtraining mode and I am continuing to make major progress.  That's a fun thing to watch because I never really expected this to work the way it is working.
