I *MIGHT* be handling this lower calorie diet better when running.. ie, I might be making better use of metabolizing fat. That's just a possibility though. No explanation for why I felt as good as I did today. Prior to the run I thought i'd feel like complete crap... perhaps it was just the rest day yesterday, who knows. We'll see as the following days unfold.
Also, i'm going to do some deeper squatting in some of these lifting sessions.. I'm not ONLY going to half squat. Will probably go deep next session with heels elevated.
I'd like to run early tomorrow morning. Probably jump rope in session #2 mixed with dips/pullups and such.
pc!
