Day 236

Sister in Law came in town to visit, was supposed to workout again today, but the guy came with his magic machine and chewed up all the brush in my back yard for me. Saves me an entire summer of work.

Went out for dinner to celebrate.

Day 235

This was supposed to be day 2 of the Smolov squat routine, and I'm already skipping workouts.  Oh well, sometimes being a daddy and husband takes priority.  The barbell will be there tomorrow.

Day 234

Everybody in my house is sick except me. I guess I should be thankful.

Good nap had by all. Went out and got some supper, because who wants to cook when their sick?

I'm not making any promises that I'll finish, these high volume routines generally take me out with back spasms at some point, I just can't recover fast enough. But with that said.

195 x 6
205 x 2 x 2 (supposed to be a set of 4, but I was wore out)

Speed deadlift

early bed time

Day 232

Both my girls are sick so we stayed home from church.  I drank coffee most of the morning, and then took a nap after lunch. Fnished up getting some trash to the road that we cleaned up yesterday for garbage pickup.

It was a good day.

Day 231

I hired a company to clear out my back yard with one of those bobcat machines that has a cheese grater on the front of it and grinds up everything in it's path...  So I spent today getting all the rocks/debris/and scrap metal cleaned up in the back half of the yard.  The previous owner just had way too much junk hidden in the ivy out there.

today's workout:

Manual Labor x too long; super setted with wish I could have been doing something else.

Then took the wife out for dinner, she is great.
