I feel him on that- last semester I'd wake up at 5:15 to be in gym by 5:30-5:45 to get in all my training then head to early morning class.

today was the first day of HIIT cardio ended up doing 20 sets @ 15 seconds sprint 45 seconds walk / SLOW jog
then jogged in 1/2 mile
I wasnt sweating as much as a typical 45 minute jog but my heart and breathing was SCREAMING
this will be a fun little project

Heart pounding is good. Means you're doing it right

alright Ive recovered from my HIIT cherry getting popped and time to suck it up and drive on

I've gotta be honest I'm getting bored with the low weight / high rep stuff. I'm just
about to end my 3rd week in the 12 - 15 rep range I think I'm going to move everything up to a 10 lbs bump. Any thoughts? Am I being impatient?
My cardio is def getting better - doing the 15 rep squats are getting easier even though the weight is going up I think its not the weight hurting me it was just getting used to doing
that many reps.
If no one says other wise Ill be making 10 lb increases on almost everything and maybe 20 on the rack pulls.

So here is today's work -
Ft Squats 3x15 @ 110
High Pulls 4x12 @ 80
Rack Pulls 3x12 @ 235
Drag Curls 4x11 @ 40

Bump it up. Seriously push it. Try keep reps above 8- if drop below that, drop a few lbs off the bar.

Works for me.
