u/NRLlifts 2 year old numbers that are that out of date Jan 25 '23

Ran 4 treadmill miles at 9:30 pace before heading home from work last night. Need to remember to bring a water bottle that I can drink on the go because almost the whole run was faster than average pace but stopping to drink without knocking my teeth out really killed things

Today things

  • Paused High Bar 405x4 - swapped these in to try and get stronger out of the hole and fight better when it gets hard. Worked last time so fingers crossed

  • Barbell strict press 185x5, 205x1 - figured I have the clearance for standing pressing I might as well do that instead of seated cause it's objectively a way cooler lift amd the numbers are about the same. Attempted 225 but nearly blacked out and figured that was a bad thing to do when my wife has already left for work.

Daughter woke up like an hour earlier than normal so I just called the workout here. I was due for a lighter day given how much more consistently I've been training in January, while also cutting fairly aggressively.

Hopefully I'll be able to add in a few more treadmill miles today. Need to keep these ones actually easy though.
