Monday training

went to the compound to do some ME work. Got there and Elliot was roughed up, so we didnt really go heavy, just did some deload shit and GPP

Med(index finger 2"s from smooth) grip bench with 80 lbs of chain
135X8
185X6
185X10
185X4

Upward cable flies
3 setsX8 reps

Lat Pulldown
170X15
190X12
210X10

now this is the important part of the day.
Im working on a sled program that is going to help me shed 20 lbs in 6 weeks. Heres how it started
sled+45lbs Interval training. 40yard sprint draging sled followed by a 40 yard walk back, then directly into the next sprint, etc for 6 reps. I did that in 5 mins and 10 secs. Took a 2 min breather and did 2 250-300yard sled drags to finish it off. When i get the sprints down under 5 mins, im going to add two more for a total of 8. This is going to be done 3 times a week, plus whatever tire sled dragging i do at home on my off days. I think this should get my heart rate up to a target rate quickly and keep it up for long enough to burn a bunch of fat Of course im coupling it with an improved diet(not perfect, but improved. My lifts for a while are just going to be basic ME lifts to maintain strength as well as possible while im shedding this weight

I ran it by elliot and he thinks that it should work, but he said the only way to find out is to try, so thats what im gonna do. ill keep anyone whos interested updated.
