ok. here goes my update for the week. sunday was technically a rest day, but my daughter and i walked to and from the farmers market, about a five mile walk. i ended up carrying kitty litter home the last mile. fast forward to monday morning, where i had an unbelievable amount of pain in my hip flexor when even trying to walk. now, i have an incredible high tolerance for pain, my chiro even says so. needless to say, squatting on monday was a no go, so we benched instead. it went incredibly well, even with my lack of leg drive. hit a 5x5 at 115, baby gainz....ended up doing deadlifts on tuesday, nothing remarkable there, just explosive day. bar moved slower than i would have liked and deficit deads were a no go. decided to rest on wednesday, as all of us managers in the area had to go do a demo reset at another store for ten hours, at least i got a steak dinner out of it.

woke on thursday pain free. no idea what happened, but there you go. squatted with my awesome trainer and managed two singles at 250 for depth! i will get back to that 315 and get it deep enough!

friday's training went well also, shoulders and tris you know. knocked out a 145 on the cgbp!

today, rest day. i actually rested except for work. did some baking this morning. here goes the ideas.

breakfast muffins: 1/4 c oats, fill muffin tin spot with egg whites. cook them at 350 for 30 min

protein cookies: few dark choc chips, three scoops casein, about a cup of egg whites, stevia, cook at 350 for ten min or so

also made some cold pasta salad stuff: noodles, evoo, parm cheese, tuna, broccoli

that's about it....max deads coming on thurs, should get a video up to my channel late this week hopefully too.
