Well that is the first of the new style block completed. I said back in January when I was planning it getting my Achilles sorted and staying injury free were my main priorities. I am pleased to say both of those were achieved and I felt I was progressing with my sprint form and squats as well so all in all very pleased BIG thanks to RJ
In future I think 12 weeks will be right with the last week a full week off but in that instance it was appropriate as I hadn’t had a full week off for recovery in about 13 months :eek:
This past week has been nice with 2 full massages, 1 chiro visit and plenty of contrast showers and foam roller work. I also went vegetarian and dropped coffee and dairy for the week which I am 99% sure I will do on my deload weeks from now on.

Couldn’t have been happier with the session. Achieved everything I wanted and hills were great with good high knees. Really want to crank my squat up this next block and today was a good start. I was a bit nervous considering I had a deload week then a full week off but all fine.
good work, I recall when they were one of THE clubs. The 1973 FA Cup Final V Sunderland was the first live game of football on TV here. Have you seen The Damned United?
Would be great if The Arse lose and Spurs finish 3rd

not avidly but have done for about 35 years. I followed more closely this year given how they went and expect will more so next season given they will be in the Champions League. Disappointing finish to the season this morning. :o
With a place in Europe being the target, I don’t think anyone was daring to even dream a C.L. spot, so I would take 4th any time! I didn’t expect Arse (lol, I like that) to lose yesterday anyway. I expect them to go to the group stage (I really hope so…). And I thought I was the only person outside the U.K. to support Spurs! More to come!
and I felt I was progressing with my sprint form and squats as well so all in all
