Notes:

• Training motivation remains in a good spot. This was my ticket to punch to get to Friday.

• That triple on the log felt so good I contemplated going up in weight for another set, but decided to go by Westside rules and shut it down when I hit the PR and end on a good note. Strength is coming in a good way and I'm remembering how to move a log again.

• Front squats don't suck as much as they could. Temps were cooler, which helped.

• I wore a strongman belt on the stones to help keep my shirt in place, which cut down a little on the rub, but I'm still leaving bloodstains on my undershirt. I'll have to build up some calluses. But in general the stone technique is really coming along strong and I'm feeling good with it.

• In general, I'm liking the direction this training phase is moving in. It's just what I need.

• Tang Soo Do last night was great for some experimenting. Our instructor really liked a twist I put on one of our onesteps, ending it with a hell hook from a standing position. Said it was "next level".

• Weighed in at 82.2kg. Got nutrition locked in as well.
