Notes

  • Felt fresh after the workout.
  • Squat - Feel easy unracking and walking with the weight. Still tough at the bottom.
  • Recording videos and reviewing them with a critical eye sure help. Can spot imperfections in technique.
  • Struggling with the weight seems a lot longer when performing compared to watching a video of you doing the exercise.
    • 1 sec feels like forever when the weight slows down or temporarily stuck.
  • Burping after workout taste like fish oil...
  • Wore 2 shirts - tight undershirt and normal t-shirt. I can't remember where I read about it, but wearing 2 shirts seem to keep the bar in place while squatting. Time to buy more tight undershirts! Black of course.
