Back is feeling good from the 3 week de-load and I’m already bored with BBing, on to power building. Time to get back under some weight. I’ll also be backing down to lifting 4 days a week. It should be nice because I can lift on days I don’t pick my daughter up from school which means more daddy-daughter time in the afternoons. I’ll also probably get back into some more regular fasting on off days.

I realized into my 3rd set of squats I’d made a terrible mistake. I probably should have gradually increased the volume. Oh well, made it through.
Note about my weight: 12/13 I got some error message on my scale and it took 5 tries to get a weight to pop up. Judging by the numbers the past 3 days, I think there might be something wrong with it.
Lunch: 30 minute walk.

So you know you go to a good gym when on Monday at 530 AM there are 5 people deadlifting and only one benching (no joke). I ended up having to use one of the Ohio power bars and it really tore up my legs. I hook gripped all these and got a terrible forearm pump.

So I got a stomach virus on the 20th and ended up on a drive that should have been about 6 and a half hours but took 9. It was literally drive for 45 minutes, stop and puke for 30 minutes, repeat. Worst trip of my life. No idea how much weight I lost, I haven’t weighed myself. Wasn’t really ready to train on the 22nd but went and did it anyway. My left hamstring was also massively sore on the 20th and it has been very tight since then.

So I’m going to give the t-ransformation another run. I need the motivation to get back on point after the holiday. Ate lots of crap but not a tone of calories of the holidays (at my inlaw’s and parent’s houses). Still trained well though and hit some good gyms. Between the lower calories and the stomach bug, I just weighed myself at 187 this evening (haven’t had a scale). I’ll get a better weight tomorrow morning.

I was out playing on a frozen puddle yesterday and ended up falling on my butt. Later I noticed I felt it in my back where I’ve perpetually had problems, a little bit. I’ll have to see how it goes tomorrow but I’m going to feel really stupid if it starts acting up again when I’ve gone so long at this point with no problems.

I’m traveling this week and while on the road and away from family I’m pretty much doing keto. First day with about 35 carbs and I remember quickly why it’s my favorite dieting strategy. I did a 16 hour fast, then proceeded to have a lot of difficulty getting my calories in. I ended up with like 3300 (1/8). I’m going to keep to keto, but open my eating window up.
