• General: Missed 2 out of 4 days of the lower power days on this program so I'm not 100% sure how effective it can really be. I skipped 10# instead of 5# on the LP this week for squat since I won't be squatting for nearly 2 weeks. That's also why I chose to do the high rep set at 225#. I was pissed I didn't get 20 but I made the right choice by racking it after 17. My legs were quivering and I knew if I went back down to squat I may pass out or completely fall with the weight on my back. I think after recovering I could get 20 pretty easily now that I'm adapted to it. The RDL's are a great movement but I think I need to go heavier now that I have the form down.
• Nutrition: Really clean
• Body: Traps are absolutely broken. Quite possibly the sorest any area of my body has ever been, no exaggeration. I can imagine my legs will be pretty sore tomorrow too.
• Sleep: 7.5 hours. Wide awake again this morning at 7am
• Reflections: As of now my plan tomorrow is to do some kind of track workout (maybe test my 1 mile time?) and then hike the entire powerline trail which should take over 2 hours. This is instead of my rest day that is normally on Wednesday. After that I'll hit 2 huge bodybuilding sessions on Thursday and Friday to wrap up my week before I head to Maine on Saturday. I may go for a trail run on Saturday morning time permitting.
