LISTENING TO THE JOCKO PODCAST ON MY COMMUTE HOME TONIGHT AND THEY WERE TALKING SQUATS, DEBUNKING RUMORS, AND OTHER FUNNY STUFF, I COULDN'T HELP BUT GET EXCITED FOR LEG NIGHT. EPISODE HERE. SQUATS ARE NOT MY STRONG SUIT AND SOMETIMES I AM GUILTY OF MAKING UP AN EXCUSE AS TO WHY I SHOULD DO ANOTHER UPPER BODY ROUTINE. ANYWAY, I WENT FOR IT. I LIKE TO WARM UP WITH JUMP ROPE, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ONE FROM ROGUE. SR-1S SPEED ROPE. 4 SET OF 20, 115#. FOLLOWED BY A FEW SETS OF SQUAT JUMPS. NOTHING TOO CRAZY BUT I CERTAINLY FELT IT THE NEXT DAY. REMEMBER, IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO DO SOMETHING, RATHER THAN NOTHING AT ALL. EVEN DOING 4 SETS OF 25 REPS BODY WEIGHT SQUATS IS A GREAT QUICK WORKOUT THAT CAN BE DONE IN THE MORNING IN YOUR KITCHEN OR WHEREVER BEFORE THE KIDS WAKE UP. IT WILL REALLY GET THE BLOOD FLOWING AND GET YOUR DAY OFF TO A GREAT START!
A Time & Place In Appalachia Living
Food is only part of the story.
Here you'll find a look inside professional kitchens—the food, the people, the systems, the challenges, and the small things that can make a big difference.
Written from the perspective of a chef who has spent decades working in kitchens ranging from Michelin-starred restaurants to mom-and-pop operations, and who is still learning every day.
The kitchen is where all of these things meet—and that is what this journal is about: the work, the craft, the people, and the systems behind good food.
