Settin' my *** straight!
Literally.
This is my first log when I am being coached towards a particular, specific, quite measurable and very visible goal.
I saw Bill for an assessment in Indy about 10 days ago. I am now on a program to work on my anterior pelvic tilt and my "weak" shoulders. I will be working out 3 times a week, with 2 added days of EST.
I started on the program today. It was a great workout, everything felt good. It's a pleasure to be doing a workout planned so well and as a trainer it is an immence treat to be coached by someone else, let alone Bill Hartman.
I will write about today's workout in the morning, it's time to get some recovery sleep!

Very cool, Galya! I'll be reading this one with great interest, for obvious reasons!
So let's see which one of us can get our "ass in gear" first! |

What is EST? Is it EDT?
So - full body, a split? How will it go?

If Bill tells you, you can take it to the bank, although having met you, it is difficult to say that you have anything about you that is not perfect.
Good luck with your training, Galya.

EST is short for energy system training - sort of a way to say cardio work in regular speak.

Day 1, workout A
Dynamic warmup of such length it was like a russian poem
I did enjoy the workout itself
split squats 2x12 @ 30 kg
iso push ups 2x10secs
DB rows 2x12 @ 15kg
YTIs 2x6
high cable pull/push 2x12 @ 10kg
I still have to focus on using my glutes and not letting my lower back take a beating. The good news is my glutes did work, because they are wonderfully sore today.
targeted stuff at the end...man I will need to work on liking the bulgarain isos...tough ones!
plenty of foam rolling to please the soul
Day 2 (today)
mobility stuff
activation stuff
run to park: 5 min
sprints: 20:10 @ 8 ....it was okay till sprint 6 when it was the bloody sweaty type of sprinting
run back: 5 min
foam roll...not enough since I was sore. I will do more tonight.
It's going well, I am not killing myself in the gym which is a totally fresh feeling. I've been eating clean but not counting. I am eating more vegetables and fruits in Bulgaria, but they taste so good, how could I not?

Galya, I can't wait to see how this program helps you ... if it works any wonders like Cappy's programs have, then you are golden!
