A lot of sessions recently with exercise selections that leave you saddened afterwards 
Maybe time to leave the favourites out for a while and revisit them in a few months? Or are you planning to compete?
This would be the smart approach as I am not competing. I am mental wrestling with full bro mode. Quad X and Leg Press, Dum Pressing and Lat Pulldowns LOL.
I really think the knee pain is fixed with a simple foot adjustment. Now that I am a ton lighter low bar doesnt bother my delts either which also prevents knee pain from high bar. So all that is hopefully solved and I am dropping Barbell Rows either way effective immediately.
Fail worthy enough the program I designed for next week was just the Favs. SBD 3x a week with 2 bicep workouts.
Maybe a leg day without spinal loading every once in a while wouldnāt be too bad. Itās a shame the smart thing isnāt always to do our favourite thing.

Workout cut short but still a good one. Delts holding up pretty good despite low bar yesterday.
Vive Mexico! I love Mexico. Time only exists as comcast installation windows. When you chillin at the watering hole or library its quite quaint. In a good way. When you are trying to get something done however, its annoying AF. Booking this trip has been so hard. Banking is one of the things that is also quite quaint down here. Any who, I just got my sumtin sumtin for the Superbowl buuuuut after this week it might be my Jeuvecito* sanity juice.
*Juevecito literally translated means ālittle Thursdayā but in practice it actually means Friday Eve and is the most popular holiday down here especially among the youth. Just another quite awesome thing about Mexico.

Missed the gym Thursday because I spent all my gym time at the bank trying to figure that shit out. Long story short I am illegal and am not supposed to have a bank account to begin with. One of the things I cant fix until I return from vegas with a new Visa that didnt expire 8 years ago. Fkn immigrants amirite?
Legs or Biceps?
Comp Squat
2s to 410
Comp Deads
3s to 320
EZ Bar Curl
Rev EZ Bar Curl
Knee and Back felt better but neither 100%. Bicep pump was great.
KC Chiefs -3.5 I had leaned this way but am very hesitant to take hooks especially in the Superbowl. Now I am certain this is the right side. MGM just took a $3m bet on the Bucs +3.5 and the line didnt move. That tells you everything you need to know. This reminds me of Superbowl 48 Seahawks opened as 2.5 point favorites and the line very quickly moved to Broncos -2.5 and then the line just stopped moving. Money kept coming in on the Broncos but vegas wanted that action. Game was over on the first series. I also like the under 56. The only worries I have would be garbage time if Chiefs get up huge and go prevent. In the Superbowl that should be less of an issue.
Props
Brady over 0.5 INTs @ -140
Brady Under 2.5 TD Passes @ -185
Brady has been bad this postseason but his team is really good. Now he faces another really good team but with a great QB.
Iāve made it.

See youāre going to be by the Bellagio, I used to work next to the Orleans (real mediocre, donāt go) like 3 years ago, there are dispensaries everywhere, itās a good time. I used to smoke joints in the parking lot during work, with my boss.

Lower back was not cooperating at all with deads. Knee felt terrible for warmups got felt fine at 3 plates and over which is weird.
Taking a break from the cut. Even had a cheat meal today. Going to maintain for this week and get back at it next week.
Speaking of Vegasā¦

35 minutes cardio (i walked home)
Ok fun but super lazy. Went to train at wifeyās gym but felt weird because she had clients. I feel like a major reason women go to that gym is to get away from dudes so yea, kept it short and ducked out.
@heretolog It looks like The Orleans promo they were running was only for January so going there just moved way down the to-do list. Kind of a relief as I didnāt think the games would be good plus itās off strip so harder to get to.

I was never much of a gambler but have been in pretty much all of the casinos, the Orleans isnāt the worst but itās not worth going to if you donāt have a specific reason. Plus I lost like 100 bucks at blackjack over a lunch break last time I was there. TL;DR fuck The Orleans.
The most I play the table games is tossing a chip on the roulette table as Iām walking through. I have casinos I dont like that because I have been stacked on the poker tables though. MGM, Rio, Venetian.

Lazy Workout #2

Was going to do some Quad Xs but it was occupied. Not sure what is going on with me but motivation sucks balls (not in the good way). I know part is everything feels broken and I feel useless on the machines and then also work but I do need to snap out of it. Tomorrow, probably. Maybe. No promises.
Sabrina Season 5 Not the best season, I was going to say wasnt the worst but it might actually be the worst. Still the worst season of Sabrina is still a good show. Cool to see Lilith getting hers.

I found Vegas to be quite expensive compared to other states like Oregon and Colorado.

Havenāt been to Colorado but Vegas is between Washington and Oregon in prices. Washington is pretty expensive, Vegas is a decent bit cheaper, Oregon is cheap as hell. I went to Oregon a few months ago and got 100mg edibles for like 5 bucks.

Many people will fly out somewhere with one of those USPS one price ship boxes, and just mail themselves back a yearās supply. If you donāt put a return address, it is hard for them to prove you sent it (plausible deniability), and you get rid of the risk of travelling with it.

I was in Portland I think 2 summers back. One place we stopped had ounces for like $30 for the crappy stuff, but like $60 could get you something decent.

Itās insane. I donāt actually smoke much anymore since I spent a decades smoking cigarettes and my lungs hate me but their leaf prices are stupid cheap, like less than half of seattleās. Itās pretty wild thinking you can get an oz of actually good weed for the price I was paying for shitty eighths 15 years ago.
