Current Goals: Lifting, Cardio, Aesthetics

Lifting goals:

My current lifting goals are improving my back squat, deadlift and Olympic lifts. My squat is my weakest lift and because I always feel so weak when squatting I don't particularly like it. That has to change.

• Squat goal: 1x5xBW
• Deadlift goal: 1x3x100 kg
• Olympic lifts: (a) improve technique, (b) slowly increase weights

Cardio goals:

• Improve time on 5k rowing
• Complete 5 day bike trip in July without running into trouble (knees)

Aesthetic goals:

• Get to 16 % BF.

At some point in the future I'm going to do another short cut to get rid of some more fat. I was having a really hard time dropping fat this spring, even though I was doing HIIT and weights 5 days/week and my calories should have been low enough. I think, in fact, that I might have been doing too much and not eating enough, so right now I'm eating more in an effort to reset my metabolism and support my current heavy lifting program.
