Overview 🎯

I’ve got this page set-up on my website, as prior to this, I actually just used Github pages as a way to view my training program, but thought it would be interesting to show this publically, as well as cut down on a repo.

  • Occasionally Abs will be swapped in for one of the gym sessions.
  • I generally won’t work out twice per day, as I find that I wear myself down to quickly doing this. (occasionally I’ll break this rule)
  • Usually on off-days I’ll still be active with golf, biking, or surfing.
  • Some weeks I’ll mix in 3 days of cardio (usually if the weather is good ☀️).
  • I generally fit the routine around where I’m working (e.g. more running when based in Wellington).
