Body: tired
Sleep: 10hrs
Nutrition: good
Notes: First day of the program was a success. The max sets at the end of each main lift are brutal and I can see them making us stronger very fast and also a lot bigger. I am going to up my protein intake and begin to drink whole milk again to help with recovery. I will be sticking to a strict 4 days a week of training. M/W/F will be Greyskull and then saturday will be a long bike ride until I can run again and then it will change to a run. Also wednesday will have some conditioning added in. I feel like this is a great long term program for school. I am going to try out MMA, Powerlifting, and rock climbing while I am at school for my new sports. I can't wait to get a fresh start. I move in a week from Friday.
