Felt great after this workout! I am no longer really pissed and down n out about being weaker than I was.
Instead, I'm looking forward to my next workout and can't wait to get to it. Every time I get that feeling of not being able to wait, I actually end up hitting PR's after PR's. And since the workouts are still kinda easy, I'm sure I won't be stalling soon. Perfect.

did my next workout but didnt log it. i need to make the squat x3 x8 x8 x8 a little lighter... the back up sets are too heavy.
in additino i missed my next workout after that one^ that i didnt log. also im behind by a day on top of that. i got really sick. stomache problems. slight fever.
this fukking sucks man. not sure if I want to start the 10 week reset over again. i'll see how my workout feels today. god damn i was making solid progress for months and now i suck again. this always happens to me.

Another overnight shift tonight. I'm not lifting today after work anyway.
Hope to get 2 hours of sleep before the overnight... then 2 hours during... then 1 hour after the overnight and before my morning job.
I should be good and have enough energy to lift tomorrow and stay on schedule!
