Day 7

Started to hurt just a little bit towards the end of my set. Need to revisit physio.

Emotional seppuku. Sad but noble.

Day 6

Day 6

Squat 60kg x 20reps
OHP 52.5kg
Row 65kg

Going high reps temporarily to paradoxically reduce the nagging pain on my abductors. In the meantime, going to foam roll, ice and work on abductor strength.

The coffee shop I go to was out of stock for El Borbollon, my favourite coffee bean so far. They replaced it with Musasa, which is the same variety - Bourbon beans. The flavour comes close, but it isn't as good as the El Borbollon. I guess it has to do for now.

Day 5

Squat 95kg (one set only)
Bench 70kg
DL 100kg

Pains stopped me from completing a three setter. I felt strong but if it hurts I have to stop.

Getting some pineapple tarts tomorrow. A very good reason to be happy.

Day 4

Day 4

Squat 95kg
OHP 50kg
Row 60kg

I think my lift-off is causing my pains. Getting into a 'lunge' position to un-rack the bar could be the problem. Will find out more on Friday @ 95kg.

Snow is horrible. I hate snow.

Day 3

Squat 90kg
Bench 65kg
DL 95kg

48minute excluding warmups.

Foam rollers are magic for tense ITB. Managed to roll off the ache in my lateral thigh. Probably the cure to all my pains. Kinda glad really.

Day 2

Day 2

Two things today,
i) Blasted through my sets in 48minutes including warmup.
