Thoughts at 4 weeks

I am now four weeks into this strength program and have seen some decent gains, although coming off an injury the results will definitely be skewed. I was definitely reaching some sticking points this past week in my lifts and my strength is still pretty poor, but overall I was feeling pretty good about everything.

Random thoughts:

• Depending on how my lifts are feeling, every 4-6 weeks I will be doing a "reset" week on the major lifts and back off a little bit on training for a few days. Just a good habit to get into. Overtraining is something I pay a lot more attention to now, and the "less is more" approach is far better in my opinion, for many physiological reasons.
• While I keep doing this specific strength template I will also alternate the main exercises every 4 week cycle -- the exception will be these first cycles coming back, where I will keep the box squatting in rotation since it is helping me get my squat form back.
• I would like to spend a lot more time on skill work, and the reset weeks will be a really good time for that.
• Once I get my strength back relatively close to where it was before I will resume a more typical crossfit program for a while before getting back to strength work. Strength is always something I will need to be doing additional work at.
• Can't wait to get running again.
