I hope everyone is taking a rest day at some point! I know most blogs post a rest day but everyone works out different days depending on their schedule. The fact is this blog is to help ALL people who wish to improve fitness and not just program for those competition athletes. It can be used as a competitive training program with future modifications that will personalize and customize the work out for each person by using percentages in direct correlations with repetitions. However, give me a little bit to work on that. I don’t just have one full time job, I have about 3 now. Corpsman, Dad, Husband and soon to be business person so I am doing my best to be proficient at them all. So here is your thrash session today.
