Balanced Existence

Having purchased a 140kg (300lbs) Olympic weight set last week I was very excited to start the Power to the People! program. So excited in fact I had to stop myself every day for the first couple of days from doing a second deadlift workout later on in the day. The program is so minimalist that this morning I completed my workout by the time my eggs had boiled for breakfast.

Balanced Existence is all about feeling good and finding ways to fit the things that help us feel good in with the daily demands of modern life. The workout I will be trialling for at least the next three months comes directly from Pavel’s book Power to the People (PTTP). The two exercises I will be doing five days a week for two sets of five reps each day is the deadlift and the bent press.
