FT Questions....

[Scott Stevenson]

We must of confused each other a little here as I have had access to the gym in my last 5 IC's, its the latter part of this next cruise where I wont. Typically on a vacation you would use or have access to a hotel gym however I am on a boat in the middle of the ocean so no squat rack or DB's here

you wrote: "Now I timed the cruise which for the last 5 blasts has been at the end of 6 weeks to coincide when I'm away and have no access to the gym,"

In terms of IC set up (outlined above), is that looking reasonable ? Or would you adjust that?

Looks good as you're in repair mode here...

Understood about calling it quits and starting the IC now. If I was to start this IC now though it would last 30 days. As that (30 days) will be the duration up until the vacation and period OF the vacation. So 30 days until I start my next blast.
This is obviously nearly double what a normal 6 week blast IC would last for.. which is why I am keen to prolong the blast and reach the end of week 6. The way I see it is the additional time off should then hopefully off-set any overtraining / over reaching I would have obtained.

What I am asking was how would one set this up?
Just go with my usual IC programming?
Days 3 & 4 up until I leave?

The bolded would be my best guess.

I totally agree about time off from the gym. I am looking forward to enjoying myself and not doing anything too strenuous.

Overall I do feel a lot more refreshed having cut the cardio to 50% this week. Last week was horrific.

Hopefully lessons learned.
