Buckfever's progress report/bananaman story.

You already know how much I admire this.

People overthink adversity. People empower concepts, things and situations to overpower their ability to function. We set our own limits. But the only limit you are born with is the unknown but certain date of your demise.

I push equally hard in my professional and personal life and let those setbacks slow me as much as any PE setback. It simply is. And when I tire of creating a reality of unapologetic winning…I will retire.

I keep it simple. If I still want I still strive. If I no longer want, then it is removed from the list and I move on.

Second session

34% max tension @ 60 minutes

Forward in the cradle.

Ok so with this we’re back on track. It’s taken a month and I wouldn’t categorize the month as a waste because the time restrictions were largely unavoidable. The only critique is that when it was apparent that I was facing the headwinds I should have been more aggressive in making the shift towards favoring duration. I know broken record.

Anyway good day!!!

We just adapt and move forward.

Way to stay on it Buck!

76 minutes - fragmented.

In other words, making it happen.

3/5/2019

83% max tension @ 52 minutes

Experienced tug back on Sunday, so I backed off the tension today and was ale to get a 52 minute session in. I’ll slowly work it back.

I’m starting to wonder if triggering the tug back response is an unavoidable consequence of the protocol that I am following.

3/6/2019

100% max tension @ 56 minutes

Maybe a little bit of a risk to push it right back to 100% tension so soon after the tug back response, but it worked out. Really pleased to get that time under tension.

Been working out and have leaned up ok, but I really need to raise the bar a bit. Work out a little more, cut back the intake a little.

3/6/2019

56.5 minutes additional, various tension, fragmented.

3/7/2019

100% max tension @ 27.5 minutes

Pressed for time but I wanted to get something in.

Today marks the 2 year anniversary!

Congratulations Buck! Way to stay on it, you are an example of persistence!

Thank you, but I’m glad that at the time I did not realize this was a 4.5-5 year endeavor. That said I would be completely satisfied with the results to date. Exceeded expectations is the way I would describe it, but there remains desire for just a bit more.

3/8/2019

100% @ 26.5 minutes
34% @ 14 minutes
Low tension @ 51 minutes

Still working through the tug back response.

It would really help to get a low tension session in later, I don’t know that I can fit it in.

3/9/2019

34% @ 20 minutes

Didn’t have time to go again yesterday and although I usually take Saturdays off, I had 20 minutes so decided to get a light session in. I’ll have more time in a few weeks so we’re marking time till then.

3/10/2019

100% @ 35 minutes

Low tension @ 55 minutes - fragmented.

Ehhh.
