      Damn..that's quite a program! Dead hang for 7 minutes (total) after all those dead lifts and rows?? Your forearms must feel like they're going to explode!

      Do you ever hit a point where your endurance starts failing you on those 8 rep sets?

      Oh, and you might wanna consider taking some K2 with that vitamin D. Apparently without appropriate levels of K2 all that vitamin D might lead to hypercalcemia. I'm currently using this combo.

    I’ve started over. Again. I’m a firefighter (volunteer) and while not completely overweight (age 40@ 175lb @ 5’9”) I need the cardio. My gym across from work is closed so the lifting has been gone. I’ve been lazy.

    We had a fire last week. I did well but not well enough. I needed a heat break after cutting holes in the burning roof and smashing some windows. My BP was perfect and pulse ok. I’m just good at catching my limits creeping up.

    So the day before yesterday I did a mile. I need to stretch so I can run more of it - and remember to breathe.

    But after things cool off today I’ll do another mile, or more, and try to keep it up!
