  • General: So pumped that I hit all my strength goals for the year. The 500m row was also a surprise PR. I got really naseaus after I finished and had to lay down for a while after I finished. In general a solid training session. 
  • Nutrition: Good, but I drank last night. Dan's family has been gone on vacation all week so we've been hosting ruckus. One more party tonight and I go sober for 4-6 weeks.
  • Body: Back still bothering me. I deadlifted a 185# bar just to see how it felt and it hurt. Probably won't deadlift at all next week either. I think all the rest may result in a huge PR when I'm finally healed.
  • Sleep: 8 hours
  • Reflections: I'm debating giving Layne Norton's hypertrophy program a shot beginning on Monday. It's basically 2 days a week of high volume powerlifting with 2 days a week of body building. There are 2 days for optional conditioning which is where I would get my runs in. Some people have reported 6 weeks of adjustment to being able to handle the volume on this program so if I choose to do it my nutrition will be key and I will need to eat like a horse and sleep better to make it work. I'm going to decide by Sunday.
