Since I left the dojo and came to Portland with all its good food and beer I’ve gotten soft in literal ways. And hey, it’s biking weather now and we’ve got a weight set in the basement so no excuses. Biked down GNC to pick up some protein and creatine.
\nJesus christ, I forgot what a difference creatine makes. After my first day’s dose I could suddenly climb the Alameda ridge without stopping or even dropping into too low a gear (I mean, not that supersteep one way street, jfc), and I don’t decide to give up partway through sets.
\nMy goal is to every day do 3 sets each of 3 different lifts, at least a third of the old dojo exercises, and climb the ridge at least once, twice on weekends.
