Usually it's a lipid panel (HDL, LDL, triglycerides) and fasted glucose. This year I'm pushing for Lp(a), Apo(B), and some male aging bio markers. If she doesn't agree, I'll do a private lab test on my own to fill in the blanks.
Big 3: squat, bench, deadlift. I've been working in variations to keep it interesting and also lowering totals to be safer. Run through a 4 week phase adaptation program and then a deload/interception week (strength/CNS, hypertrophy, endurance).
2x zone 2 with a Wahoo heart rate monitor; 1x zone 5 VO2 max intervals. Sometimes I use a Peleton, sometimes I use a ruck sack. Depends on how I'm feeling or how burned out my legs are. Really want to get a rowing machine this fall.
Some days it's 15K others it's 4K but roughly 8500 is where I want to average out.
Which is hard to do. But I have this great low carb whey protein powder to supplement and I've been doing more lean protein meals in the slow cooker that keep me going for a week at a time.
Two full bottles of my main water vessel and I'm good to go. I usually have a lot more than this.
Prayer, meditation, whatever you like to call it. I have a couple passages in some books saved and I either recite or read thoze
Not all my daily affirmations are health related, but at least one of them always is.
The difference is unreal. Once you get on a regular healthy sleep schedule your life will transform.
I drink so rarely now. I will enjoy when celebrating with family or friends or the occasional recreational golf outing. But mostly I'm dry as a bone at home. Great NA options out there now when the craving hits.
