The road less travelled

D.O.M.S. otherwise known as Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness, and bears no relation to lactic acid.

I'm telling you this because Carlos DeJesus, Arthur Jones and I went to pump some iron yesterday.

Full body workout, 1 set to failure, superslow.

D.O.M.S. is what I have now and it feels great. I havn't felt this good in a long time and I can't wait to get into the gym tomorrow.

I did cardio today on the bike. 20 minutes of 1 min sets. 20sec sprint with high resistance and 40 sec cruise, followed by abs. Try it sometime....don't forget to take a brown paper bag.

For the first time since the ops for my infection I have no dressing on the back of my head....sounds dippy I know but I feel completely different, or maybe that should read complete.

I'm eating superclean and I'm interested to see what kind of progress I can make by Christmas day, 6 weeks away. Remember this is my warm up and prep for my Superchallenge.

The sun is shining, the weather is warm and I think I'll spend a couple of days a week at the pool in the complex to get some sun onto this ravaged body of mine.

By the time I get back from vacation Carlos and I will hit the ground running...next year will see me in the best shape of my life...why don't you join me.

By the way, if you are wondering who Arthur Jones is 'google' him.
