Recently hired Rob to design a custom RECOMP program for me.
I tore my ACL last July, and that being the 3rd injury I gave to that knee playing Gaelic Football like I do (it's like rugby or soccer, great Irish sport).....I had surgery in September to reconstruct the ACL, FCL and repair the lateral meniscus.
Needless to say, I've DECOMP'D into a fatty, and need to get back and do it right.
I am a legit 3.0 subscriber
and wrapping up the FAMINE phase of my recomp. Lost 6 pounds this week, and waking heart rate is up, as expected, from 64bpm average to 70bpm.My schedule is weird, so "Monday/Wednesday/Friday" becomes "Monday or Tuesday", "Wednesday or Thursday", "Friday or Saturday or Sunday". Just depends on how things go at work.
I have a pretty good oly weight setup, rack and bench at home, plus Powerblocks, chinning bar, etc. Also have a gym membership and do cardio there.
Very excited to see how this RECOMP goes. Biggest differences from the "Standard 3.0" are that, due to my knee surgery, I am not going to do Barbell Squats or other heavy full-body lifts. Diet is also being modified to CKD. So we're going for RECOMPed yet strong.
I generally enjoy heavy lifting in the Fall/Winter here in Minnesota, then transition to the outdoor field/team sport of Gaelic Football. However, looks like at 42 years old, I'm going to transition to full time referee and retire from fullback
That's fine with me, though I will miss playing the sport.So, that's my intro.
Like I said, famine has been going well, I believe. I plan to log stats and workouts here, starting with pre-famine measurements and go from there.
