Did some swimming the past couple days. Nothing even worth writing about honestly lol. It's an in ground, standard length backyard pool. I start the year off with 10 laps and add one every time I go in. Last year, I used AI to help structure a swimming progression program based off of my lap thing as the foundation. Ended up getting decent and made swimming a good cardio activity for the summer.
In addition to that last year, I started a walking/running progression program as well. I'll be doing the same soon. While slowly building on those 2 programs in addition to lifting hard, I should be able to stay somewhat lean for the summer.
I ate a bit bad the past few days and feel fat. Most likely in my head but none the less, I need to correct it and I need to correct it asap or risk falling off the wagon.
Got 25 minutes of elliptical in tonight as well. Not hard, but felt good. Leg day tomorrow but will be a quick workout utilizing bloodflow restriction bands. Light weight, big pumps, and circuit style to keep the heart rate up. Goal is very little cns stimulation and a break from the heavy lifting. I did that with pull yesterday and it felt very nice. In addition to being drained physically, I am extremely drained mentally. Although, today I felt decent energy wise as I think the worst of my caffeine / stim stopping is over. Not going long, but will do a week break. Utilizing some good pump preworkouts with my less intense BFR workouts this week and then will see where I'm at.
