This was a solid week of working on my weaknesses. Something that I have noticed as I have trained with Dan Dalenberg longer and longer, my off-season work is getting much more difficult. I believe this is due to Dan knowing my weaknesses better from seeing them first hand. The exercises on Day 1 and Day 2 are kicking my butt. The weights aren’t heavy, but the work is difficult and I’ve been very tired after these sessions. It’s definitely a huge bonus to train with a guy that really knows his stuff. One of the many bonuses of being part of team PRS. It’s a cool feeling to be doing exercises that I have never performed before even though I’ve been lifting weights for 15+ years. Turns out this 10/20/Life stuff works…who wouldn’t thunk it? lol
