Esteemed Coaches, et al

Jeff “Ski” Pelkowski here, submitting this in the hopes that I may solicit your guidance in designing my first Clubbell training program. My physical statistics, goals and other information are as follows:

Age: 37
Height: 5’ 10”
Weight: 200 lbs.
Body Fat: Unknown (I’m sure its bad)
Physical Status: Overall Health: Good
Health Issues: Cholesterol: total 320 (bad…I know)
Orthopedic Issues: L3/4/5 disk and bone issues, 1 operation.

Diet:
Warrior diet (as soon as I get the book this week, Doctor has approved)

Physical Aspects of Work History:
USMC 12yr: Weight lifting, running, hiking, parachuting, all the basic Jarhead stuff.
Underwater Construction 3yr: Swimming and surface
Supplied diving.

Current Training:
Biking. Working with Clubbell basic handling skills so I’m ready for a training program.
Body-Flow and ROSS basics.

Training time Available:
Early morning, Monday-Friday- 0400-0515, evening 1800-2000/2100.
Saturday-Sunday- I am able to train anytime by adjusting schedules.

Motivation:
High

Goals:
Lose weight (Max 30 lbs. also requested by Doctor).
Gain muscle density, Increase Strength, Regain Biomechanical Efficiency.
Once I have reached a stage where I am comfortable, I will be joining the ROSS IDP, Another long-time goal!

Notes:
I travel overseas a lot and taking my Clubbells is not feasible. What program (Warrior Wellness, perhaps?) would help on my travels between knuckledragging sessions?

Any guidance would and will be deeply appreciated.

The best to all,
--Ski

Ski,

Go with a Double Density (http://www.circularstrengthmag.com/17/sonnon1.html) cycle using Swipes in the AM and Mills in the PM. Train every other day, 3X/week, with Sundays off.

Track your daily progress in the program logs.

Mucho Gracias Coach Sonnon,

I will track everything and keep the records as accurate as possible!
I will also post them on the CST Personal Training Logs. This should be very interesting!

Read (vice "see") you on the biomechenics forum tomorrow! Got to put the kids in the rack! Chasing them down is a cardio workout in itself :)


All the best to you and yours,
