August 15, 2013 – Upper Body Training Deload

Late in posting this up. Back and hips feeling like crap the past two days. Almost dreading doing heavy moving events at this time. Planning for trianing may not be as easy as I thought it would as I can't control my access to equipment besides my own. Could be a big issue leading up to this contest. Also concerned that it still hasn't popped up on the NAS site yet. Still thinking.

26 Minutes of Stretching

Comments: Went well. Biggest thing was just making sure my left wrist didn't give me fits. Still bothering me from helping out at the contest two weeks ago. Not much to really report as it went fast. Switched to strict pressing rather than incline as the bench was in use and I didn't really want to weight around. Rows were easy and I added some weight to triceps as it was easier just throwing on two 35lbs plates rather than deal with change. Finished up with stretching and burritos.
