For food I bought eggs, sausage (not a lot) and steak.

.5/.5/.3/.2/.1 row

Push ups

Eggs, protein shakes and turkey sandwiches for today.

i ran with this ironman dude last night.. surprising how "jacked" he is considering how much volume he puts in cycling / swimming / running .. but he also lifts and probably eats a ton.

i can see you eventually being like that as you "up" the cycling/running volume.

An Ironman Triathlon is one of a series of long-distance triathlon races organized by the World Triathlon Corporation (WTC), consisting of a 2.4-mile (3.86 km) swim, a 112-mile (180.25 km) bicycle ride and a marathon 26.22-mile (42.20 km) run, raced in that order and without a break

insanity.

That'd be a nice goal even if I came in dead last lol

I only hit 19 miles in an hour, I kept having to stand up because my ass was hurting.

Yeah for right now id like to keep lower running volume with high inclines cuz I'm still a fatty.  I'd like to work up to a 2 mile 5 incline and 6mph.  Next week I may throw in 1 or 2 flat 3 mile runs.  Basically I have at least 2.5 months to get ready which is a pretty good timeline.  I feel as though -30lbs is reasonable if I stay as consistent as I was last time. 

Also, if I ever did anything like that race, I'd probably have to hire some kind of coach haha.

ya this dude has a coach (former 4xKONA guy or something). also he's mostly done half ironman's, that's how they all start out.

I wasn't actually saying you should do an ironman btw.. but I imagine you probably want to do a half ironman and eventually an ironman or something like that at some point; those are some serious accomplishments... that swimming though. This dude swims in the ocean like 2-3 miles a few times per week.. that's mindblowing to me, lmfao. For me, the swimming basically disqualifies ironman from ever being a thought lmao.. i'm not into swimming.

but ya just keep slowly trying to up your volume while eating clean, while lifting to maintain mass .. boom.

Yeah seems like my cable and machine circuits seem fine, once I hit free weights I eat everything in sight.  Body weight and machines should do fine for now.  I'll worry about lifting when I'm 200lbs, it's easier to maintain bodyweight than it is to lose it haha.

Nothing today, first official snow of the year and it's a damn storm.

Exercise yesterday was changing tires and replacing brakes, today was shoveling snow.
