When I was younger, I absolutely got caught up in the hype of "looking good;" rather, than "being good." All of your size and strength is useless if you cannot functionally apply it. You need to ask yourself: “What do I want to do with X part of my body;” then, devise your training around an intended functional, real-life applicable outcome…not something that “looks good on the shelf,” but cannot be “taken down and played with.”"That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong." - 2 Corinthians 12:10

I regularly play recreational sports; As a retired career Special Operations Soldier; my level of fitness was / still is directly related to my job effectiveness.
I usually only do 1 workout a day (with enthusiasm!!); I strictly schedule my rest days; I typically rest 4 or more days per month.
Finally--although I have been athletic most of my adult life--I am a former CrossFitter; however, I wanted to specialize for awhile and see how far the Wendler 5/3/1 will take me following the reconstruction of my left ACL which was completely torn while competing in MMA and Brazilian Ju-Jitsu nearly four years ago...which, after dealing with an extremely INVASIVE surgery and post-op rehab, I no longer do. I simply consider myself very blessed to be able to function at the athletic level that I am currently capable of by, with, and through God's saving grace.
I try to train holistically and eclectically, i.e. if I feel like crushing myself, then I do; if not, then I listen to my body and throttle back. It only took me 43 years to figure that out...

I primarily train in Pinehurst, NC; however, I travel to Tampa and Salt Lake City several times a year for business.

God Bless you all; have a great day.

In Christ,
