Still recovering from this bloody chest infection. Feeling pretty good but the chesty cough is hanging around. It's been nearly two weeks since I lifted which is a bitch. Have basically done nothing since the ball game last Wednesday. Thankfully my weight hasn't changed. Still around that 92-93 mark and a mirror check this morning confirmed my body comp is pretty much the same which is lucky considering what I have and haven't eaten the last two weeks.

Am going to lift tonight and see how I go. Will do an easy-ish session. Prob just squat and ohp. Will also use this opportunity to start squatting in my oly shoes again.

Plan for next week is to lift twice, play ball and jump and then re-introduce track work when the cough is completely gone. No point here at this time of year doing the track in the morning. It's usually 5-6 degrees which isn't going to help anyone.

damn you been dealing with that chest infection for a while now..

i tell you what, i've only been sick once in the last year but, I don't have much contact with people anymore.. So easy to get sick when you "go to work". Prior to taking this year off, I got sick a ton the previous 3 years.

- daily routine
felt good, actually kind of energized post all that reading about herpes. lol.

damn just read the HSV post.. fuck that sucks.

those numbers you mentioned are scary as fuck. and now zika is an std? can get bit by a mosquito than transmit it to your partner - wtf? unsafe sex is basically unsafe. crazy.

broken for me too

Session: Stretching

12:30 AM

- lots of stretching, ankles/achilles/calves/quads especially.
- actually felt alot better after this.
- probably need to do some good stretching of my calves, since i've started performing barbell calf raises.. those have made my ankles/achilles feel 'different' than normal, and now in the case of my right achilles - actually achy.

two nights ago: I had a cool basketball dream.. was just me playing a full court game at some park. fun dream.

last night: dreamed I had owls in my house... so the entire dream I was trying to find where they were hiding. Eventually I found them and moved them out of their hiding area, planning on eventually releasing them outside.


had several dreams the last few nights, but those are the ones I still remember.. lots of dreaming lately. hope this continues.

Nijah Rahimov with the 214kg C&J in the 77kg class. Seriously WTF?

insane af.

I'm no expert in weightlifting but isn't he meant to stand still once he's got it overhead?

i'd think so.. seems like a no-lift from my noob knowledge of oly wl.
