Back to the basics

Today was dreaded gym day! I'm trying to hit the gym, weights that is, at least twice per week through the off season. I'm going back to the basics and focusing on power and strength. Today was squats, 75 reps using 25,20,15,10,5 & progressing weight with each set. I alternated pull up between sets to keep my heart rate up. Last I did 3 sets of 12 on clean & press. This will get your heart pumping. I hit 189 on the last set!
Weights are very boring for me but a key element to overall fitness.
Food has been a challenge for me since Friday. Fortunately poor eating makes me feel poor and rundown; so I can't sustain a poor diet for long.
