Notes: 

* Been coming into most of this week’s workouts fatigued.  Most likely need to get some more calories in.  Well I got 15 buffalo wild wings waiting for me for dinner tonight (heard they cook them in beef tallow, so game on) and Texas De Brazil on Saturday, along with my carnivore brunch on Sunday, so that should set things up just dandy, especially after this workout.

* By the third press I was feeling pretty strong, and the reverse hypers didn’t take as much out of me as usual.  Moved up weight on the complexes too, and really felt pretty mighty on them.  5 sets of 5 is really pretty gnarly, and going from that to my first “to 50” workout was just fantastic.  Dan John remains a sadistic genius.

* Gonna take a moment to pat myself on the back, because this was an awesome workout.

* Didn’t have a chance to log the rest of yesterday, but got in a 3 mile walk with the Mrs out in the sun in the afternoon, my usual daily 300 squats and push ups, and the most fantastic “breakfast for dinner” to date.  I had SO many animals.  I had 2 omelets made with 2 whole pasture raised eggs and 1 egg white, grassfed ghee, smoked piedmontese grassfed steak tips and ground bison, and grassfed swiss and Dubliner cheese, alongside no sugar/uncured pork bacon and paleo chicken sausages/a chicken breast patty.  So we’ve got irish cattle, piedmontese cattle, bison, chicken, and pork.  I WISH I thought to throw in some goat cheese to get another animal on there.  This morning, I had some raw beef liver, primarily because I haven’t had a chance to cook it yet, but it honestly wasn’t terrible.  

* May be doing some Tang Soo Do tonight, depending on how the kiddo is feeling after swim day.

PM 

* Got in my 300 squats and push ups, and then TSD was a total barn burner of bodyweight exercises.  Another few hundred sit-ups and a million push up variants.  Good to do stuff like that.  Shoulders are on fire.  Also had 15 naked wings from Buffalo Wild Wings.  They fry their wings in beef tallow apparently, so that's cool.  They're not the best I ever had, but kid ranked their all american cheeseburger as their number 2 cheeseburger of all time (In n Out is still #1: love this kid), so we found a winner here.
