Notes:

* Apparently I was moving slow through this.  Took a while to get done.  

* I’ve got a long weekend coming up, with the Mrs and I having Friday off, so I’m compressing my training schedule to finish lifting on Thursday.  This meant training Mon and Tues back to back.  It was a bit rough coming into this, which may be why I moved slower.  My left lat was a little touchy as well.

* The pulls felt pretty strong.  I’m pleased with where I am on those these days.

* Rows continue to feel better each week.  Definitely bitter medicine.  I don’t care to do them, but I’m better for doing them.

* No walk: had to get to work early.  Tang Soo Do tonight though, so some extra activity ahead.  

* Physique is looking thicker these days.  Feels like I’m returning to my previous form, which is nice, especially that I’ve gotten here with a much better approach.
