• General: You have to appreciate the good days of training to prepare for the bad ones. I'm officially putting myself on the shelf for a minimum of 1 week (and more likely 2) in order to heal the elbow once again. If it doesn't feel anything other than stupidly good after this training cycle then I'll rest for another week, no questions asked. I'll squat twice next week but other than that all I'm going to do is run distance with Contois in the AM. Made this decision after today when my elbow felt pain for the first time since December. Sucks but it is what it is.
• Nutrition: Alright some junk. I'll be partying tomorrow night so it'll be poor this weekend but I'll be adjusting how I eat while I heal. No more shakes :\
• Body: Good minus the elbows. Felt really strong today.
• Sleep: 8.5 hours
• Reflections: I'm being positive Paul in this situation even though negative Nancy is trying to creep in every time I turn my head. This is how I look at it-- I got bigger, I got fatter, and I got a hell of a lot stronger over the last few weeks. While I heal this it's time to get leaner, faster, and maintain my strength levels. My bag of ice is going to become my new best friend. Either way, I won't make the same mistake I made last time by not resting it. Long-ish run tomorrow depending on how the achilles holds up. Rest on Sunday. Lots of alcohol consumption this weekend. Back to business on Monday. Get some go again.
