not all quiet on the training front........

i have been in a rut. a real deep hole.... it happened at the end of April. maybe some burn out. maybe a change of focus. maybe some work or life stress.... but it happened. the rabbit hole opened up and swallowed me whole.
i took a week off. then another. got a couple bike rides in but just couldn't motivate... then another...
and here i am.
so what happened? dun know. could have been a lot of things. could have been nothing. but it happened.
so whats the plan? get back after it. end of plan. simple stupid.
get up.
put boots on ground.
go and do some fuckin work.
don't over think it.

got away last weekend, got some sun, did some thinking.
put on the running shoes and just went .
3+ the first day
2 the next with half that on the beach and the other half barefoot on pavement
3 the next day on the road.
little mobility and some body weight stuff mixed in.

got home and got back into the grind. work, family, crappy sleep.
the rabbit hole was opening up again.

not stepping in. making a turn, changing pace.
just do the damn work.

getting back here and back into the gym.
had some blood work done today. routine but added a few variables just to see. take that out of the equation. think i know all the answers already but better safe than sorry.

so.

back to the 5-3-1
no accessory work.
short met-cons, runs and rowing
commute by bike a bit.
K.I.S.S
keep it simple shithead---

gonna put in a week at deload weight, then reset and start a new cycle.
focus on recovery, post workout nutrition, eat clean, less beer etc...
spend more hours in the woods on foot and on bike.

spilling it here to keep me honest. we'll see how it works.
