Just for giggles, I looked to see how much progress I've made in ten years. Here are my notes from 2/14 and 2/16 2004
2/14 dead 135x10 225x8 275x5 315x5. Hmr inc 180 x 11,10,8,7 db row 80x 10,10,10,10 inc flye 30x12, 10,10,10
cls grip 135x10 185x6,8,8 seated calf raise 180x15,12,10,8
2/16 Hmr oh 45x15,90x12,135x8,6,6 CBL curl 60x12,10,8,7 db side raise 30x12,12,12,12 Hmr bicep 70x10,90x5,4,4 45x8 db oh press 75x12,12,12
the Hmr weights are each side. I guess I was training for something different then huh?

In case the last two days do not come back...
Monday, ran about 4 mi and did descending sets 9-1 of db swing/ push up
Tuesday, squat 165 7sets of 5 and bench 175x5 200x5 225x5 265x1 245x2
elbows hurt way too much to do pull-ups so I did db rows 80, 100, 115
i really need to get some decent elbow sleeves, suggestions?

for those of you who do not monitor the chat box 24/7, last night Turbo and RR were encouraging me to try training strongman. I feel that I can start implementing it slowly with pushes,pulls and carries. I want to stay with my 5,3,1 until I at least get my big three up to 300 and OHP closer to 200.

Should have been deads and OHP today, but I'm so sick I can barely stand. I hate missing training days.

Finally starting to recover. Missed Thursday and Saturday obviously. I was going to try to get out this morning and walk a little. Maybe run if I was feeling up to it. But, wife started getting sick yesterday. Baby Friday night, daughter last night, and wife went to court this morning leaving me with babies.
i went to urgent care on Sunday morning and they gave me antibiotic so now with the pooping combined with not eating last week, I should come out of this 10lbs lighter.

 

[Turbolag]

Man I'm sorry to hear you are sick.

what happened?

 

[monsoon]

Some sort of resp virus plus sinus infection.
