- General: First metcon was really brutal, my lungs felt it for several hours. For about 5 hours after the metcon I felt the same feeling in my chest that I felt after the Ghost Train (sore, almost a feeling of my chest being pushed out too far too) but it went away around 8pm, which is about a day faster than last time. It may just have something to do with my lack of conditioning. My heart didn't have any of the palpitations it normally has after my workout, for what it's worth. Back squat I didn't max out on the last set because my legs were cramped up from not squatting in 9 days and I didn't want to get hurt.
- Nutrition: Dynamite. I started a new experiment with eating eggs (although I'm technically allergic to them). In the past I've had times where I get a really bad stomach ache when I eat eggs, usually so bad that I can't talk and I have to leave wherever I am to go lay down. So far I've worked my way up to 3 eggs at once without any discomfort, but I'm not 100% sure that won't change. My goal is to start eating 6 eggs a day for extra protein since I can hoard them from the dining hall.
- Body: Overall good, my legs are cramped from not squatting which isn't unfamiliar. My body loved the mobility. Elbows tweaked throughout the day but felt good during the workout.
- Sleep: 9 hours. Been sleeping pretty good when I haven't been going out, usually 8-9 solid hours
- Reflections: Tomorrow I still haven't decided what I'm going to do. I've narrowed it down to yoga, running or maybe even hitting the weightroom. Tuesdays will vary because I can't deadlift still because of my back but they will never be rest days. Only thing I'm nervous about right now is pressing with this weakness in my elbows, so I may not this week.
