COMMENTS
  • General: Big back squat PR which I was somewhat concerned with after spending the last 4 days recovering from the flu. Last set of bench I lost because I wasn't keeping my shoulders tight and my form dipped on the drive off my chest. Weak bench today due to the arm program volume. Opting not to finish the arm program as it's completely eliminating any progress on my pressing movments and I'm trying to move towards strength over size being consistent in my mind.
  • Nutrition: Really good. Started eating similar to how JP recommends in "Swole" which I really liked today.
  • Body: Feeling pretty solid
  • Sleep: 10 hours
  • Reflections: Going to run in my new Montrail Mountain Masochist trail shoes tomorrow and also hit the gym. 2 more days of training and I'll rest Thursday and Friday in preparation for a 50k run on Saturday. Weather is looking really good which is making me very happy.
