Resistance Training for Ashtanga:

I follow a push/pull/leg split, 3/on 1/off. I dont follow a neat m/w/f 7 day a week schedule— I rotate as best I can.

I like to lift and then practice shortly after, or I try to practice early and lift later (8 hours later, in fact).

When I’m short on time, I do a full body work out 2-3x a week, alternating between compound pushing and pulling movements.

If I’m in a hypertrophy (mass building) phase, im lifting for about an hour. If I’m in a maintenance phase, its about 30 minutes. If i need an attitude adjustment, its a group class.

Full Body Workout for Rotational Stability.

A really fun circuit using the @vitruvian — with the isokinentic (echo) mode. The apparatus dynamically adjusts resistance so as to maintain a specific time duration at maximjm intensity over the travel distance defined in the firat 3 reps — theyre the ones that look easy. Watch the weight kick in and its no wonder it allows you to achieve incredible strength and mass gains quickly.

Repeat 4 Times, 45 seconds 45 seconds off.

When leaders make decisions for their constituency behind closed doors without consulting said constituency, an organization is no longer designed to serve the people. This creates a sense of hierarchy, and inside of that hierarchy leaders are placed above the law.

Organizations that limit agency and critique internally are inevitably going to be fragile. Pragmatically, its not great to be around.
