Achilles pulled up fine from yesterday.

Nice work!!!

Thanks bro. I miss playing rugby but I'm enjoying the gym gains. I've been lifting weights for years but rugby cut my gym gains due to the demands and constraints on lifting due to playing 8 months of the year being chronically sore or injured. Try squatting with something as mild as a hip pointer. It's basically impossible. Not to mention torn muscles, back spasms, broken collarbones, concussions etc. Say you basically can't lift for a month. When you are healthy you don't get time to add weight to the bar and get back to where you were, you go play which makes it impossible to make real gains. That said once my achilles is better I'll be straight back to rugby LOL!

had a weird experience today. as i was walking to the gym my body was just...resisting. like it didn't even want to go in the building, let alone put on shorts and sneakers and work out. i tried to talk myself into going anyway -- i was walking toward and away from the door, i must have looked like a crazy person to anyone who happened to notice me -- but eventually decided to bail. the last time i pushed through despite feeling weird i ended up with the flu (very different feeling then, and correlation does not equal causation, but still).

the shift to lifting has not been smooth.

It's probably just getting back into the routine but there's nothing wrong with listening to your body, particularly if you sense that your immune system is susceptible.

Shin splints are a bitch. They'll go away eventually but can take up to a few months.

Cardio

Treadmill-
Walked 5km @ 6km/h speed
Jogged on treadmill
500m @ 11.4km/h

Achilles/Calves didn't feel sore, which is a good sign.

I'm going to start incorporating cardio on days where I don't lift weights to assist with weight/fat loss.

These are some rappers from my city in Adelaide Australia.

"Early morn, train station, aching from the arthritis
This war veteran knows what a hard time is
He needs his pension, dementia and half blind is
The reason he rides the train with no car license
So he boards with an expired ticket has a swipe
Gets a fine cos the change he got don't add up right
We're taking about a man who never lived a lavish life
Caught up in the age of computer chips and satellites
A lovely lady boards looking tired and half awake
He smiles, she's reminds him of his wife that past away
She says something as she walks right past his way
His old hearing aid don't last quite half the day
Some young gentlemen alive with their laughter
Approach the old timer and put a knife to his heart to
Explain that money or bloods the price of their barter
To a man whose friends probably died for their fathers

Whatever it takes can justify
Whatever ends we make, whatever the price
To the end of a life, it?s just an observation
So take a ride we?re stopping all stations

It's been a long night the suns lifting on a cold
Morning but she's drugged and drunk tripping on her stroll
On the way home, she's done with stripping on a pole
But she can't pay for her son living on the dole
Jumps a train puts on her gloves she's wearing black
Being watched by some old mug she's glaring back
She's on edge and got the bug from sharing smack
So she says, Hey, what the fuck you staring at??
He smiles, an unsteady hand rubs on his dome
She takes a seat, a messy band of ruffs board alone
To the digger with a machete at his lungs and he's prone
He can barely stand but ready to stand up for his own
She tries to help him she doesn't choose to flee the car
And catches a blow with enough bruise to leave a scar
She starts fainting, the rooms moving and seeing stars
Ain't it amazing how courageous human beings are?

Whatever it takes can justify
Whatever ends we make, whatever the price
To the end of a life, it?s just an observation
So take a ride we?re stopping all stations

He knows nothing but toil, strife and hard yakka
Pissed at the world for playing wife in a slammer
This man was never given a life on a damn platter
So he jumps a train with knife and bandanna
Boys at his back, sleazy, hardened and far
From giving a fuck, an easy target his mark
He sees an old man and says "See we'll part with your hard
Earned cash or rest in peace we can start with your heart"
Some girl steps not afraid she's gonna cop it sweet
And gets decked before she made it even on her feet
The old man leaped to her aid and to his horror he'd
Thrusted his chest into the blade of his robbers piece
He grabbed the wallet, dropped the knife as he fled the car
Concerned about the loss of life he'd never went this far
What's done is done, he'd got the prize and he'd spent his half
Of two dollars in change and a pension card

Whatever it takes can justify
Whatever ends we make, whatever the price
To the end of a life, it?s just an observation
So take a ride we?re stopping all stations".
