This week I'm still just getting used to more volume and a body part split before starting my new programming next week. This isn't the exact split I'll be using, but it fit my schedule this week since things are crazy coming back after vacation.  I felt really good today and was more pumped than I've been in years. I'm enjoying the change of pace in my training and a different focus for a little while. I'm also excited to see my strength gains over the next year once I start training more for strength and strongman again.

Next week I'll be getting a bit more specific with my nutrition. With all the stress and everything going on the past few months my sleep and recovery was crap. I've added in a new pre-bedtime supplement a few weeks back that's got me sleeping like a baby. So I'm hoping to see some nice changes with my new programming, nutrition in line and recovery taken care of.
