Notes:

• Felt awesome in the training today. Knee was feeling smooth and springy, and I was able to get to depth on the final 3 sets without a break in motion. Pec has just the slightest bit of discomfort in it, and with the potential competition this weekend, I saw no reason to put it at risk, so stuck with the push downs.

• Valkyrie put the flannel sheets on the bed last night with the colder weather here, and it went a long way toward improving sleep quality.

• Push ups at the end were to get a little work through the pec. Cut out chins because it caused a slight amount of agitation.

• Regrettably, I slipped on the ice on the way in to work and really torqued my healing knee. Thankfully, the rehab has been going well enough that I managed to recover, whereas before I’m pretty sure I would have needed medical attention. Still sucks. On that note, the keg carry experiment may be on hiatus until conditions improve. But I did carry a 237.5lb keg last night with a 1:12 fat grips hold.

• Weighed 84.7kg this morning. There’s no one in my weight/age group currently, so I may just compete up a class and not sweat making weight.
