10 Nov Training Log: 11/8/2025
A Productive Start to a Busy Week
Another solid and productive Saturday in the books. I’ve got a really busy week ahead—clients flying in from all over the country for back assessments, ranging from their 20s all the way up to their 70s. It’s always interesting working with such a wide age spectrum; it keeps me sharp and reminds me how universal proper movement and spine health really are. With so much hands-on work coming up, I wanted to make sure I got a strong training session in over the weekend.
Full-Body Focus and Daily Movement
Like most Saturdays, this was my main training day—fast-paced, full-body work that covers everything. I followed it up with supplemental arms, shoulders, and pressing variations, along with focused core work and planking. My daily walks are still a big part of the routine—anywhere from four to five walks per day, lasting 10 to 30 minutes each. These walks have been huge for keeping my energy up, digestion moving, and recovery consistent, especially as my workload ramps up.
Peptide Protocol and Tissue Recovery
I’m still hammering away at my peptide protocol and continuing to work closely with Chris Duffin on the KLOW. I’ve also been using CJC and Ipamorelin, and I’ll have a full update on all that soon. It’s about time for me to cycle off the KLOW after this week to let things reset before starting back up.
Over the last three weeks, I’ve seen around a 40% improvement in my hamstring and adductor. The combination of KLOW injections with ultrasound and shockwave therapy has been working well. I’ll typically feel inflamed for a day afterward, but then I get a kind of supercompensation effect—like my body rebounds stronger and more stable. There’s still some work to do, maybe another 50% to go, but the progress has been undeniable.
Managing Weight and the Bigger Picture
Bodyweight is sitting in the low 260s right now. My goal is to gradually work that down into the 230–240 range, even through the holidays—never easy for a guy who loves to eat. But the focus is staying active, staying disciplined, and staying ready for life.
The last five years have been all about that transition—going from elite competition and powerlifting into being able to live pain-free, run with my kids, jump on the trampoline, do karate, and just move well without fear of hurting myself. It’s been an adjustment, balancing that drive to stay strong with the reality of aging and shifting priorities.
Long-Term Goals
The back is pain-free, and the mission now is to replicate that same resilience through the leg and hip. The goal isn’t just lifting heavy anymore—it’s about health, longevity, and setting an example for my clients and kids. Working toward that 230–240 range is going to be tough, but it’s a challenge I’m ready for.
Another good week behind me. Feeling good, business is strong, and the body’s responding. Just gotta keep stacking these productive training Saturdays and stay focused on being ready for life.
