Comments: The short workout again. I felt like crap. Good
thing the plan was to lighten the workload on the deadlift day for two weeks. I
was feeling like I had a cold. Was initially going to do this during my lunch
break but with how things went last time and with not feeling so hot, I elected
to wait until after work. I took an allergy pill during lunch and that seemed
to help. I had taken nasal spray and Dayquil when I woke up. The plan was to go
camping the next day. It was getting warm pretty quick. Added some more fans to
the garage so that there is a constant airflow and a dull hum the entire time
haha. Walk followed by the usual stuff. Knees had been achy but felt ok by the
time I got to the lifting. First exercise was squatting to a box. Another day
with Liza lifting in the garage. It’s a nice feeling. Squats with the goblet
style are easy and feel good. Weights and reps staying the same for who knows
how long. But that is fine by me. I like how these feel better than the front
squats but it might just be the increased weight and the leverage that make
these feel easy and not awkward. Axle rdls followed. The plan here was only
working up to 380lbs with set reps and jumps. I did the empty axle for 15 reps
and then decided I’d just do the plate jumps, which would make the working
weights 10lbs heavier than planned. This felt better to me since that meant I
didn’t have to deal with small plates. I was having more issues with keeping
the weight from rolling (I had to add more wood to the one saw horse) with the
angle of the garage floor from how I set things up. Knees and body were achy.
Appreciating that this was a lower effort session. Might be that knowing it was
lighter was why I didn’t go all in on this. I also think that if this was to be
the day of a heavy triple as originally planned, I would’ve skipped the workout
entirely with how I was feeling. The abdominal stuff was the same as last time.
Crunches, lying leg raises, planks and side planks in that order. I drank a lot
of fluids and put all the stuff away first to have rest and to not be puking up
stuff. I had not done the abdominal work last week because reasons. I forget
how much missing a week or a workout does on these. These all felt tougher than
they usually do. Could be because I was under the weather. I did these in the
garage this time so I didn’t have stuff going into the house. Got to relax and
stretch before eating dinner and cleaning up to get ready for an early morning
and decent drive.
