GU

No lifting Sunday

Today, Monday - last night was the first night without medicine, save for a cough drop. Not out of the woods altogether yet but every day, a little better.

GU: 12 kg x 4 alternating singles, rf, 14 kg x 1 each side - 14 kg was pretty solid and this will be our new weight.

GU, SN

Wednesday, in the car on the way to PA:

C&P: 20 kg x 3, 5, 4 at turnpike rest stop

still sick, so no lifting Thursday or Friday.

Today, Saturday:

GU: 12 kg x 1 each way but with a bunch of presses before first rep

SN: Q&D-ish, but way too out of breath, 4 series starting left, 10/2 w/ 20 kg, total 80 reps

GU, SN

Lost my voice and have a head cold of some sort.

No lifting, as planned, on Saturday or Sunday, but cancelled a few other things as rest seemed to be what I needed most

Today, Monday, is the first day I've had a voice since last Wednesday or so. Did

GU: 12 kg x 2 alternating singles, rf - these are getting better

SN: Q&D-ish, on the porch in decent-for-December weather

Series 1 - alternating L/R/L/R as a warmup

Series 2 - left at 4:00

Series 3 - right at 8:00

Previous SN session was the first w/ all 20 kg, so an increase of 50% in volume for today, and form with this weight is improving - times are slightly quicker - still slow but slightly quicker, still don't trust my own grip on the left completely

GU, SN

Feeling a bit under the weather, didn't have much voice yesterday but did have a stuffy nose.

Today

GU: 12 kg x 3 alternating singles, extra floor presses at the beginning

later

SN: Q&D-ish, 20 kg, 4 x 5 reps series left, and on 4:00, the same right, and done. First time all 20 kg SN

GU, MP

Thursday - very cold outside, no walk

GU: 12 kg, several just to elbow, then 3 alternating singles rf

MP: 20 kg, need 15 reps (3 x 1-2) for medium day each side, so, lf: 3, 5, 5, 3 = 16 total

GU, DL

Today, Wednesday, basically a day off planned from lifting.

Feeling a tiny bit under the weather - not really bad, but my voice sounds funny/low

Was pretty toasted feeling last night, went to sleep early, feel much better today

First time this go-'round for 12 kg getup

GU: 12 kg x 2 alternating singles, right up first. In a lot of ways more solid feeling than the lighter weight.

No press today

DL: 120 kg x 3 double over, x 3 r/u, x 3 l/u - all reset at bottom - these feel light, more like 100 kg than 120.

SN

Today, Tuesday, miserable cold, rain/snow/sleet

walk during a bit of a break in the precipitation

SN: Q&D style

lf, a series of 5/4 each side

lf, a series of 10/2 each side

Was having all sorts of computer network and wifi issues, didn't do getups today
