Subject: P4, Week 3 Recap

Hi Friend,

You got your first record week of Q2 under your belt. You've begun working on your body composition and muscle definition and working towards beach season #1 and being summer sports ready. It's fascinating that there was snow yesterday and yet here we are proactively getting ready for summer. #ThatFeelsGood!

Speaking of feeling good. I mentioned in class staying in bed for 10 hours and seeing performance benefits. Here are a few of the slides from a presentation I attended this summer by Brandon Marcello.

Longer Sleep = Better Quality

The longer you sleep the higher the quality of your sleep. Notice how the REM bars get thicker the longer you sleep.

Longer Sleep = Increased Performance

Longer Sleep = Increased Chance of Achieving Big Dreams!

More Sleep = Reduced Injury Risk; Less Sleep = Increased Risk of Injury

More Sleep = Less Colds. Less Sleep = More Colds

More Sleep = More Youthful!

Try to Stay in Bed and Sleep for 10 Hours as many times per week that you can!

Weekend Workout - Stretch & Sprint!

*currently the next Stretch & Sprint is:

7:30-8:30am, Sun, April 28 @ MC

I did proposed this Sunday, April 7 as a makeup for the 3/24 date, but it was unavailable. I'll look to make that up on a future date.

Upcoming Schedule

P4, W4, 4/8 to 4/12
P4, EW, 4/13 to 4/21
P5, 4/22 to 5/10

P7, 6/9 to 6/28

Next Week!

On paper, Monday is a strong day for both a.m. (workout B#5) and p.m. (workout A#5) workouts. Tuesday through Friday are light and fast (T-B#6, W-A#6, Th-A#6 and F-B#6). Wherever you are on your workout cards, make sure you're getting stronger and using PRE / PRO (progressive resistance exercise / progressive resistance overload) to make sure you're getting better. Use the light & fast days to recover!

Cardio Minutes - Week 3

We did 23min / workout this week. Minutes are due Monday.

Stretching / Recovery

If you're like me your body may be feeling a little stiff and tired from the increased volume. It's a byproduct of training to become more awesome and we want to recover as quickly from it as we can. Extra rolling and stretching can help.

Try the 45min stretch routine or the 60min stretch & sprint routine. I love both!

Cheers and wishing you a great weekend and fun trying to stay in bed & sleep for 10 hours.

Make it count,

Mike
