I've been trying to take Saturday and Sunday off, but seem to have been taking my days off in between when I can't make it to the gym, either 3 days on, or 2 days on, and a day off.
Haven't been eating cleanly at all, but haven't gained any real weight. Right now 160 pounds and 5'8.
Looking for a sprint workout (not HIIT for cardiovascular fitness, if I wanted that I'd just jog), with cones and change of direction, etc... also explosion to increase my actual vertical horizontal speed.
Anything you'd change?
