Notes: Completely forgot that I trained like 9 hours before this. First thing in the morning, minimal food, very happy with the outcome.  This was probably the most valuable lesson I learned from this injury; how to perform the best at my CURRENT state, rather than fixating on always trying to hit the same numbers no matter what.  I know that, as long as I apply the same amount of effort, I'll see progress.

On a grip strength PR, I was able to do all 5 reps of 246 double overhand.  Broke out the straps after that.  Normally I'm only good for a triple.

Notes: Thinking about calling this one "No one rides for free".  Wanted to see how many reps I could get for 370, was disappointed in 4, so deciding I was going to double it for the next set.  From there, I kept adding 2 to the initial rep count and doubling it on the next, so basically the low rep set is punching the ticket to for the high rep ride.  This was a total asskicker; highly recommend for those looking for a challenge.  Noticed that it was really my legs taking the beating today.  Normally, I just squat with whatever gets me there, but it seemed like my legs were taking all the weight.  Probably good for them.



General notes: Woke up at 196.4.  Still sweating off the effects of my trip to the buffet.
