The hardest part is the first week…then after that it will be easy…it is a lot easier if you have someone to lift with. > [@Pics of solving the 5x5x5 rubiks cube](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/pics-of-solving-the-5x5x5-rubiks-cube/26641/12): > > Falling off the wagon sucks. Getting back on can be a difficult task. I had a 9 month run in 2005 then got the flu that took me out of commission for 2 months. About 2 months ago, I started cleaning up my diet and getting the protein synthesis started again. I had two good weeks of lightweight routines to get back into it and then 3 good weeks of Full Body HIT. 2 weeks out of town for work has me playing catch up. > > This time around I’ve opted for a HIT routine that has me doing full body 3 times a week. Warm up includes dynamic stretching and some light weight reps. I get as close to failure as I safely can and only perform 1 set of each exercise. I have already found myself doing pre-exhaust and stripping the weights to extend the single set. > > I’m with Bics on the arginine. There are ways to do it cheaply and with good results. What kind of HIT training do you do? --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/pittspeed-fitness-nutrition-thread-update/180728)._
