Why 4am?

Come sweet slumber, enshroud me in thy purple cloak. Hmph. Doesn't even rhyme.

A rare really good post and more rare good answers about why people can't lose weight - not even if, but especially if they're distance running. http://community.livejournal.com/gymrats/1789861.html

Short version - suicides, sprints, relays, HIIT, go faster-harder not longer. Size doesn't matter, intensity matters?

Did squats and stiffy deadlifts w/o hitting my back as much - I have definitely been curving my back too much, especially as I fight for those last ones. I need to re-flex my back at each drop point to avoid that tensing problem, along with stretching just a little at the time. I try to work out less than an hour, but unless I super-set it's still 1.25-1.5 hours on avg. Intensity is easier on running than lifting, but if I just push myself in the gym even if I am still panting I find while I feel tired I can still push out most of the reps as if I had waited 2 minutes.

Should I make an icon out of trunks? Should I specifically not?
