End of cycle 2, and things are going swimmingly. Today I felt great, benches had excellent speed, I felt like I could do more, and held back a little. Met my cardio goal (exceeded it by 1 minute!), got to the gym on the scheduled days, and continued to improve mobility and conditioning. One more cycle of the prep phase for sure; I'll evaluate things at the end of that cycle. Goals for the next cycle: 1 hour on the treadmill, hit every day, continue mobility work and stretching. I'd also like to feel good enough to move to traditional max effort work for the following cycle.
