Man was I sore waking up this morning. I was worried if I could even do this workout as my hips and upper back were tight and my calves and arms sore to the touch. Actually have a bruise the size of a tennis ball on my left arm from the IFSA shield. Also, congrats to my friend Brett Somerville on pulling 845lbs yesterday.

30 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: I went a tad later than usual and to my surprise, my soreness barely affected my workout if at all. Log pressing felt even better than last week with more weight. Next week is going be the start of my three week cycle with an axle instead. Should be interesting. Inclines with the swiss bar went well. I felt good for at least a rep or two on the last set. Taking it easy on this lift until I get used to it. Finished up with my upper back crap. These went better than expected. I was worried my sore arms would make these painful but the case this time. Finally got some stretching in haha.
