35 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: Yippie! Ok, maybe not that enthusiastic but certainly feeling better. Thankfully, I had the day off and managed to catch up on sleep. I slept for about 14.5 hours. Head is still stuffy. I had time to sort things out and get myself ready for lifting. Everything felt good despite the sinus pressure. Never had any hesitation with the log presses. Shoulders were getting a little fatigued from the z presses (I alternated between spread eagle and straight ahead leg stance and noticed no real difference) but felt good for more. I kept it to just the three planned sets as I'm still sick and I can always do more next time. Wasn't sure how dips would feel but the weight felt like nothing after the first set. Finished up with rear delt raises and stretched. Not sure if I have everything sorted out in my training (some possible changes to squat based work).
