In an effort to continue to challenge myself as well as shave a few more fat percentage points off to get extra lean for competitions this summer, I have decided to start "doubles". Based on my current work schedule, I plan to get up a bit early to do either a run or leave early for a class at the gym before work, and I also plan to do P90X strength workouts, an extra intervals session, and a yoga session after work as well. This way, I'll get my running in as well as jump-start my metabolism for the day. Today I ran for 20 minutes including some 100 meter sprints in the middle, and I got home around the time I would otherwise have woken up. I feel good so far, and there's no doubt this will enhance my training. If you are ready to take your training to the next level, I would encourage you to try to fit in two workouts a day instead of trying to work out over 2 hours. That can be excessive and not necessarily as effective. Also, getting in some cardio and/or interval training upon waking can help jump-start your day so you get the "after-burn" effect through lunchtime. If you are having any issues with your schedule for any reason, please contact me and I'll work with you to find a solution. I'll update on these doubles periodically to let you know my challenges, feelings, and results.
