Notes:

I came into this feeling better than I thought I would. I was wiped out yesterday from all the activity, and though I wasn’t super excited at the prospect of sets of 10 with 1 min rest on squats, I was ready, willing and able.

Which yes: 1 minute rests for all squats, and it still absolutely sucks and I have no idea how I’ll somehow manage to do it again with even heavier weights next time, but we find a way. I went 60-90-120 for the axle press, 60-60-90 for incline bench, and 60s on dips. Really didn’t care about the dips by the time I got there.

Though the press sets fell off at the end, the first set, in particular, felt stupidly light, and it was awesome to toss around 135 like an empty bar again. I’m rebuilding to where I used to be.

Got all 7 days with 19-18-18 chins. This week starts 19-19-18.

Weighed 83.6kg this morning. Not at all surprised at that number: we ate out a lot and I took in TON of sodium. The sodium isn’t going to change: doing kalua pork tonight. But I’m also going to not eat like a prom queen as specificity finishes up, because it’s such a nut kick.

Only 1 Tang Soo Do class this week: tomorrow. This week’s schedule is pretty nuts. In turn, I may get in a walk tonight while my kid is rehearsing at a function.
