More sleep, restructure training

Have been running on less 6-7 range sleep for years. It seems fine. However, I noticed I felt asleep at day without coffee; and seems not fully awake or felt energized.

Let try with 7-9 range sleep. With the cap wake up time at 6:00AM. Go to bed before 10:00PM. If I wake up before 6:00AM, then up and train. Else alarm at 6:00AM.

Saturday gets up at 5:00AM for a long run with friends.

Have to adapt the training schedule. I have 30 minutes in the morning for personal hygiene and train. StrongFirst approach is perfect match here. KB AXE is a good candidate.

Find time to run in the afternoon.

Run the experiment and see how things fit together and patterns will show up.

On the menu:
- Pull up and Push up
- AXE
- General KB swing One and Two Arms
- Prying Goblet Squat
- Pistol Squat (body and weight)
- Turkish Get Up
- Rope Flow
- Pogo Hops + Skipping
- Calf Raises
- Tyre Walking, Back Walking, Happy Hip Hack
- Run "fast" with short distance, usually less than 30 minutes a session
- Long run weekend
