      Block 2A Week 2

      I’m feeling wasted after the main lift. Also I’m scuba diving this week. How should I modify the training week to account for the extra daily workload besides eating my face off thai chicken and rice.

      If I remember correctly, you are on the TFL program in which case I would sub in the scuba diving days as off day work outs. If the three main days is really too much and cannot be made easier with all the thai chicken and rice, I would lighten the weights on the main movement and on the heavier assistance exercises.
      If you are feeling really drained just do the assistance work for the three main days around the scuba schedule and start things back up next week.

      Cool. I’ll try that.

      Maybe there should be a thing added to everyone’s profile with a tag of which program and how far they are into

      Come to find out the correct answer is don’t scuba and lift on same day. Makes you susceptible to decompression sickness (bad very bad) and I was experiencing sub clinical decompression sickness from the lifting. Treat it as a conditioning day.

      So I got some more advanced advice on this. 4 hrs before is ok. Lifting after is a bad idea.
