Notes
Plan was to get 5 sessions of lifting in. Failed to do that because I didn’t prep well enough on Tuesday to squat and deadlift Tuesday. That pushes it to Wednesday and pressing to Thursday. I could have lifted arms on Friday but my typical Friday tired hit. It wasn’t until after I golfed on Saturday that my legs were ready enough to train. Plus, a bit of a lack of sleep caught up and I didn’t end up doing much of anything after 2 pm. This week will be different.
Wednesday’s squat and pull session was off the charts hard. My legs were screwed until halfway through Saturday. 2 squat sessions in 3 weeks was clearly not enough stimulation for what I had been doing. Tuesday should be better.
