0555 hrs
I really need to record my thoughts first thing in the morning as I drive to the gym. Things in my head process and feel so much clearer.
Just as i was stripping away the unnecessary clutter I had a family emergency. So Thursday until today was a write off. Coupled with 10 hrs of driving on Sunday no idea how i would function today. But i was rested and well fed so that was a bonus.

This felt really light on y shoulders. I can tell as I get to the box things were off so i capped the top set at the prescribed reps today. i don't want any more down time this week.

Very solid today. I guy I helped out a few week's back walked by and said he wanted to try these later in the week. I warned him to start light.
KB Farmer's Walk
6 x 20 m x 70 lbs
Farmer's walk was something different today for neck /grip work rolled into one. I kept rest short so as to put more stress on my hands.
Post Work Conditioning /fight the demons work

I decided last week that i need to bring a secondary session back at the end of my work day. I need to burn off and let my mind process whatever i have been wrestling. I cannot entirely explain it. I have had a lot of crap things happen already this year. Always looking for perspective and for the most part I am finding a straw, sucking it up. Or moving on when i start to feel too sorry for myself. Some of the shit i have had go on is personal and the other stuff i think i might just not be entirely accepting. One thing i do need to do is contain my mindless anger. It has swelled up a lot lately for no reason. It will pass. I think part of it is i am not focused on anything tightly enough. the other part is the loss of my partner in crime and best friend earlier in the year is affecting me in ways i never thought it would. it really was the loss of a centering and calming factor in my life. time will pass and things will go about as they should. in the mean time i have to not take out too much on the other loved ones in my life. I am sure none of that made any sense it was too damn cryptic. fawk.

2 x 20 x 180
2 x 20 x 270
2 x 20 x 360

My legs were cooked after this. I did chat with an elderly fellah. He was curious about the prowler. I warned him of the prowler flu and he proceeded to throw 50 lbs on another prowler and push it around the 220 m indoor track. Bad Ass!
GHR 1 x 5 (both hamstrings started to cramp hard!)
Knew i was dehydrated so i slugged BCAA's and water and took the walk to the jam packed weight room. Bro's doing curls and stuff all in front of the mirror
