Notes:

* Since I didn't get this workout done last week, I decided to just carry it into this one.  This week itself is going to be unique, as I'll be hunting on Wed-Thurs-Fri and there is a fair chance my training will get compromised on those dates.  But, with Chaos being the plan, that works perfectly.

* This is the strongest I've been on the log in a while, which I absolutely attribute to the approximately 300g of protein I ate in one sitting the afternoon before.  I've been fasting since that meal, not out of martyrdom but out of sheer fullness.  I'm basically going to wait until hunger returns before I eat again, which at this point is looking like a 24 hour fast at least.  Meanwhile, still trained like an absolute animal.

* The first squat is ALWAYS so rough and ugly, and it's usually by about rep 7 that I'm finally feeling pretty good and smooth.  Funny that.  Definitely hitting the challenge on these.  This isn't supposed to be Super Squats, but if I keep doing this 3x a week, what else is it really?

* I'm definitely seeing myself fill out from the training and eating.  It's a great season for feasting.  I'll need to weigh myself at some point when my weight has settled so I have an idea of what weight class I'll be in for the grappling tournament.  I've been eating big now, but it'll be light rations while I'm hunting.

* Since I had the day off, I went on a slightly longer walk with the wolf.

* This new shirt design from Irongods is so over the top and I absolutely love it.  Can't wait for it to drop.
