Texas Method recovery day. I think the colder weather is making my joints ache.

Foam Rolling

High Bar Squat

  • 45lbs: 20
  • 140lbs: 10
  • 230lbs: 5
  • 320lbs: 3
  • 410lbs: 2
  • 465lbs: X,1
    • Missed the first time @465lbs. Got it the 2nd try after telling myself not to screw up over the next 20 seconds.
  • 415lbs: 3
  • 375lbs: X
    • Unracked the bar, then re-racked it. Something felt off. Aching everywhere.

Overhead Press

  • 45lbs: 10
  • 75lbs: 8
  • 100lbs:5
  • 140lbs:3
  • 190lbs: 2
  • 225lbs: 2,1
    • Missed at 3rd rep, first set. Triple at 225lbs feels close!
    • Second set only managed 1 rep.
  • 210lbs: 5
    •  5RM unless I'm mistaken.

Ever since I started taking strength training seriously, I was bitten by the Iron Bug. Then it burrowed under my skin and laid eggs in my heart. Now those eggs are hatching and I... the feeling is indescribable.
