Highlight of the day: Seated OH Press 1 x 15 x bar /65 /85
This was test day and i was wiped from a night of broken sleep 2 nights in a row thanks to the dog. I love her to death but really having to go poop at 3:30 am is disruptive to my sleep. Lol.

| Please FriendBeast, i need to poop. I know it is early but this is an emergency! |
Highlight of the Day: Trap Machine Shrugs 10 x 10 x 90 lbs
The leg testing seemed to actually tire me out. The leg was stiff, not sore. It was of course Throat Punch Thursday. So there was other neck work done as well. I did do some treadmill work, 18 min up to Lvl 4.3.
For a de-load week usually by this point i am feeling slightly better and more energized, not so this week. Oh well.

| Throat Punch'n every week. 18" or die trying! |
Highlight of the Day: OH Tricep Extensions
1 x 20 x 70
1 x 20 x 80
1 x 20 x 95
1 x 20 x 100
2 x 20 x 80
I did try Dynamic benching but my leg was far to stiff do my set up. Everything felt off. So i tried the bar, 95, 115, 135 and then shut it down. No reason to waste time trying to do something i clearly was not prepared to do this day. My head space has been off all week. A lot of outside distractions that i normally blank out when i walk into the gym. I am human. Off days are going to happen.

| Yup, this sums up my week of training. |
23 Feb 2013
Highlight of the Day: Pull Ups 8 sets of 13 reps
The pull ups i got through. Still tired. Did push ups and Bosu Situps as well. Plus a bunch of normal body weight stuff i do on Silver back Saturday. It was good to get this assignment done. Last 2 sets were grinders for sure but better than last week. I again had to mentally fight through this session. contemplating a longer de-load week.
So weeks like this will happen. I will keep plodding forward. I will get a few naps in over the weekend. Go to bed earlier. Eat more food. Things like Egg Rolls. Eggs. Bacon. Ground Meats. but overall dig in and keep pushing forward. I had so many PR's and smooth awesome sessions i sort of new a slight dip in training was coming. So i will adjust.
With the upcoming ability to lift coming. I will start altering my weekly Schedule this week. I will not go into details but i will highlight changes i make them .

I also realized i have dropped the bike. I think in light of the waiting for my knee to recover a little more so that i can run regularly i will fill in with some extra bike in the evenings. The plan is to ride the bike for 20-25 min max rotating between Slow & Easy (recovery), Tempo rides, and Intervals (INT). I will follow this up with The Daily 30 as well as TKE's & Squat work with the bar. No planned training for today. i will take a full rest and eat stuff.
Sent in my membership dues for Ontario Powerlifting Federation. Next payday i will register 1 possibly 2 Bench Only meets.
I see the Physio therapist tomorrow afternoon. I will discuss with her adding Glute-Ham Raises back into my training. The best exercise for hamstring and back chain strength.
