Today, I've been down all day. I failed at doing even one single repetition of whatever exercise. I'm not exactly sick, but everything's aching and my body just feels heavy. Altough I've already devoured loads of food today, I'm still starving. My motivation to do just about anything is on an all-time low.That's all classical … Overkill weiterlesen

HFT goes naked warrior
Over the last week, I've finished my HFT training on one day.That's not exactly a lot.So, I've decided to alter the routine. Instead of pullups and leg raises, I'll now be doing one-armed pushups. 50 per side. Today, this routine worked out just fine.You see, sometimes, you have to adapt your training to your everyday … HFT goes naked warrior weiterlesen
Gym Engineering #1
Yesterday was the 4rd day on my HFT program.I decided to pay a visit to my Stadlau-based dojo (for those non-Vienna residents amongst you: Stadlau is a part of Vienna's 22nd district) before going on to teach at my Aspern-based gym (again, Aspern is another art of Vienna's 22nd district). While my partner, Chris, was … Gym Engineering #1 weiterlesen
Wednesdays are easy, take #2
So today is the third day in the second phase of my HFT program.It is also the first day I completed the whole thing.During the last days, I just didn't have enough time to work all those 200 repetitions. The pistol squats can be done just about everywhere, however, the pullups and leg raises require … Wednesdays are easy, take #2 weiterlesen
HFT, Phase #2
So yesterday I've finished my HFT phase #1. Basically, that program had me do 100 pushups and 50 pullups per day. Each sunday, I did what I call "max days", so those 150 reps were done in one session.Yesterday, I figured out a way to do those pullups more easily by adding a plyometric element. … HFT, Phase #2 weiterlesen

Today’s max day
Today's max day.Monday through Saturday, I'm spreading my HFT routine over the day, careful not to put to much stress on the body. This is due to the fact that I'm training the same muscle groups every day - so overdoing it on one day means extreme soreness and trouble to stick with the program … Today’s max day weiterlesen
Wednesdays are easy
Wednesdays are easy.Time-wise, that is. If you ever did some kind of HFT program, you'll know that finding enough time to perform loads of repetitions of some exercise isn't an easy taks, especially if you're doing it on top of some other training routine.Since the idea is to spread the sets and reps all over … Wednesdays are easy weiterlesen
October #3
What I thought to be some simple stomach flu turned out to be salmonella.I therefore wasn't able to train at all during the last week. Seems like I'm more or less over it now.Since I've seriously lost weight, my priority now is to regain what I've built in the HFT phase.To do so, I'll repeat … October #3 weiterlesen
October #2
Great. Couldn't post until now, I'm sick. Apparentaly catched some infect.As for my HFT, I couldn't do more than one day in a row. Every other day I had to skip the program due to massive exhaustion. Guess I overdid it. So, I'll get back to a more moderate approach to HFT once I'm on … October #2 weiterlesen
