Gym not opening til 5am now really screws me up… that lost 1/2 hour kills my routine… going to have to reconfigure my workouts fit… at 275 for deads I thought no way will I hit 5 @ 360 today…hip ached, hammie sore, elbow cranky…just one of those mornings and the bar was moving so slow off the floor I thought man this is awful…so those 10 reps might be Guinness record for slowness!

Sucks about the gym time change. I like the look of your full body workouts. I need to change things up and do something like that at some point.

Some of my best workouts were when I was pressed for time. Big basic exercises and move quickly. But being pressed for time every workout just sucks. Sorry bro.
