She’s fine. I’m partly in shock because her skin is split but she’s fine. Not even bleeding like you would think. I’m shaken up to say the least

I’m glad she is ok. You have had a rough week with your puppies.

DW W6D1
Time: 47 min
Squat:175x3x10
DL: 235x9x10, 1 rep (2 min rest)
2 rounds of 20 50lb RH/ HLR
Notes:
- Called it at the 10th set. My lower back got extremely tight. Im willing to bet I’m in a deep enough fight or flight I couldn’t feel the build up
- @T3hPwnisher how do you think I should go about this? Make it up another day or keep going onto the next day
- I am going to do some weighted RHs
- I just remembered when I was signing the paper work at the vet, I looked at lily and said “oh god you’re going to be bald” bc they’ll have to shave the area to stitch. I’m going to call her friar Lily
- Ex phys exam Thursday. Going to have to abuse nicotine and caffeine to study. This weekend was extremely busy and this stuff today didn’t help

You’re a maniac for even doing this day in general with the state your body is currently in. I don’t see a benefit in stacking on even more stress here. You know you had that 10th set under other circumstances.

It’s not as bad as I thought. Luckily her skin is the same tone as her hair

Well I’m glad it’s better than you thought it would be. But honestly, I’m a little disappointed. I was looking forward to a funny bald on top picture.

Oh poor baby! I can see why you were freaking out!
At least it’s just stitches. No damage to the bone.

It was surprisingly clean. They only had to use the degradable stitches too
Training notes:
- I slept so deep and hard last night
- Back is fine today. Think I might have just pissed it off with everything yesterday
- Meeting with my physiology prof today about getting my exam moved back
Edit: back is kinda fine. Super stiff but no pain. Tightness around the top of my sacrum. Going to do some reverse hypers and see how this plays out. Current “oh shit” plan is to finish out the week and then switch to something like a john meadows program if my back is still acting up in a couple days. Probably should note too that yesterday morning I slid in some mud and that made my back uncomfortable. No sharp pain. It’s all kind of dull so I don’t think it’ll linger too long

@T3hPwnisher do you have a time for the pork chops at 155F? Whole pork loin is on sale once again
1-4 hours is what I see quoted, and I usually take mine to 4 hours because I put them in on my lunch break.
I’d honestly go lower than 155 if given the choice. 155 gets you all white pork. I prefer some pink.

I’ll try it at 145 or so then sear!
DW W6D2
Time: 60 min
various ab and low back stuff to warm up
Bench: 185x10: 195x10,6,4
Closer grip bench: 155x2x10,8
Incline bench: 135x3x9
Dips (done myo rep style): 6+3+got to the bottom of a rep+ red bandx6
Push up (dropset): Normal: 6, Knees: 3, Incline: 1 negative
Reverse hypers done throughout workout: 50x3x15, 100x2x10,21,17
Notes:
- I am so out of hit. I feel like a zombie today. Miss loaded the bench bc of this
- Was about to call an audible at the incline bench but I decided to stick it out and kept telling myself “Just one more rep than last session”
- Dips and pushups were done quick to get me out
- Reverse hypers are fucking magic
- @Brant_Drake @BethB I saw y’alls conversation about music on the psychology thread and it reminded me of exactly why I started to listen to hardcore. It’s aggressive but has a positive message. It makes me feel a lot better than when I’m constantly listening to death or thrash. I threw on “This is Now” by Hatebreed to get me through that hump at incline bench. This part came up and it was exactly what I needed:
This is now (now)
How can I change tomorrow if I can’t change today?
This is now (now)
If I control myself, I control my destiny
