NOTES
Congrats to BAMA Women's Softball for bringing home the 4th National Championship of the year for UA.
Light day today, Focus on Deads. Realized today that next week I will have all week to train and then I will have two full weeks of ????????. I leave next Friday afternoon for AL to attend my wife's 30th, following Sunday to Knoxville and Louisville. Meeting all week in Louisville, with my Seminar on Wednesday at 8 AM. Back to Knoxville on Friday, home on Saturday, MOnday leave for DC back Wednesday night or Thursday. I will do one of two things when returning, either reset and start this 5 x 5 over or start fresh with the 5/3/1 fullbody. At any rate, should give my arm some time to heal up.
Squats - Could not bring myself to ramp up to 135. Seemed like a total waste of good iron.
Seated OHP - The possible tendinitis has reared it's ugly head. These were painful to do. Will need to think this one through. Anyone familiar with pain where the delts connect to the arm, about mid arm? All the medical folks in the family lean toward tendinitis due to the lack of pain doing anything but lifting movements like Bench or Overheads.
Deadlifts - Worked a good sweat, but these came easy.
Chins - Was hurrying the last set, because I forgot about an appt and was late. Also rushed the rest. Only 4 on last set was not good.
Let's see what Friday brings.
