      Starting the TFL Block 1B Tomorrow. I’m turning 59 March 6th. I was a disabled Police Officer
      (Heart Attack) After fighting to comeback for 15 years I returned in April after graduating
      the Police Academy. Love my job. Love being back.

      In between I did some acting, stunt work, and body doubling in close to 100
      movies. And I will still be acting. But only a few times a year.

      I had to put on 25+ lbs for a movie. Not a healthy thing to do at any age never mind an Old fuck like me. My wife and kid were not happy. But you gotta make a buck when you can. But I assured them I would not do it again…after my wife threatened me.

      Now I will get down to 175 (a great weight for looking and feeling good) For three movies. To be healthy and in the words of Gunnery Sergeant Hartman not be “a disgusting fat body” or as Doug Neidermeyer called flounder a “nauseating pile of blubber”.

      I’m starting a 200 lbs. BF 22%. For diet I’m going to use a RP template.

      A major training obstacle is schedule. I average 60+ hours a week and my schedule is unpredictable because
      of the nature of my job. So I will need to adapt and adjust. I’m training at Best Fitness in Danvers. When schedule permits TPS in Malden, my police station gym, and home gym.

      I walked 4 miles on a work detail today. And just took my puppy for a 3 mile walk wearing a 20 lb weighted vest. I also did “The Method” warm up routine plus a bunch of mobility work. I also will hit my diet perfectly today.

      I hope my Method Brothers and sisters will get some enjoyment if not amusement from my journal.

      God bless.

      Will

      And I do want to mention I watched the Ball Slam video and to be frankly Candace who I know is a very nice person scared the hell out of me with her intensity. And…. that’s all I have to say on that subject.

      Did ok.

      Did some warm ups in the sauna to get some heat in my bones.

      Started with the Old Method Warm up. Mobility work.

      Goblet Squats I did 10 reps starting a 10 lb DB 20-30-40-50-60 x 10, 70 x 8, 80 x 2, 90 x 2 ,,100 x 2 x 5

      Walking lunges 3 x 10
      FG Pull ups 3 x 15-20+ No rest between sets

      Magills 3 x 10/10
      Supermans ” ” Wanted to warm my core a little more.

      Buzzsaw – Pikes – Ab wheel 3 sets 10+ reps each

      Balls slams – DB side bends – Thrusters with 20’s did 5 sets but it took awhile.

      overall not bad but I’m more out of shape than I thought

      I did block 1. But I was more focused and harder on myself starting
      this block. But as Shemp Howard said

      “Rome wasn’t built in a day and neither was Syracuse”
