Still feeling sick! Damn cold. It hurts my nasal cavity to breath.

And my glutes are sore today. Maybe from those damn Zercher squats on Wednesday.

Or the CPR/AED class I did yesterday. Had to do a lot of chest compressions and mouth to mouth on a dummy. A lot of leaning over and sitting up (all while I'm on my knees), and repeating a million times. I'm not used to that many repetitions. Partner complained of glute DOMS as well.

Texas method intensity day.

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.
