Soreness: none

Condition: It was sooo cold and the wind was very strong. I didn't have a cold anymore but just a chesty cough, you know when you inhale, you hear the congested wind tract near the chest. So I had to make sure I didn't get involved in a high intensity workout where I may get tired, so did low but in strong bursts.

It was very cold and wind was strong, so I had my coat on and would take off coat 3 times before going back in. Workout was OK no explosiveness obv but motion and power was there.

It was a good session, the box squat on bench does not work because of the sponge, so I place weight plate on it, which is about 2-3 inches thick. My low back does hurt when I do it, but it's not a type of pain that I have to stop and avoid but rather my back is under stress but not a dangerous stress. I squeeze my abs for dear life when squatting so pain has gone down and I minimize sitting to back to put my low back in danger but like a normal squat sitting on a chair. I stand with my legs on each side of the bench to get that good width and then sit back, sit lean back and then lean forward and squat up, after the squats back feels good. I also decided to add a 1 rep BSS so as not to lose strength in that type of movement. The rest of the workout was good too, same as normal.

It was a good session, the wind made it difficult especially the 50m sprint, the wind was really powerful. Strong but would have liked it more quicker explosive drive out of the start but runs were strong despite the wind.
