Training Log: Entry 2366

AM WORKOUT
Buffalo Bar Squats 280
9x10

Notes: This was a real test.  Left knee was not happy this morning, and felt like bone on bone.  Rested 3 minutes between sets for the first 5.  Started laying down between sets after that, and rested 4 minutes for the next 2 sets.  That's when a real bad exertion headache set in, so then I started resting 4 minutes between sets, would then stand up and lean against the bar until my vision went from double to single, and would get the next set in, so longer than 4 minutes in total.  In turn, once I was done with set 9, I was running pretty low on time, and was feeling the distinct feeling of my soul escaping my pineal gland, so I called it a day and literally crawled up the stairs to take my shower before getting to work.
 
I've got room to hit 10x10 next week before I get on my cruise, after which point, I'll most likely apply a different approach for this workout.  I think training like this in absence of a caloric surplus is most likely not terribly viable, but the challenge has been good for me.

Woke up at 194.8.  I know I said I'm going to enjoy this off season, but last night I saw an Octoberfest competition about 7 hours away that looks pretty cool.  I might just train the way I wanna train and then show up for it, because it didn't look terribly heavy.  Something I'll consider at least.
