Lung infections sucks ass.
still not able to train- plenty of snow to shovel.
some BW training that’s it.
maybe this weekend? not sure.
in other news squared away the apartment that we moved out of and am renting it out.
SD- thanks man.
Cavalier thanks and yes being sicker then I thought proved sickness is smarter then me
lets say its been ‘forced rest’
I’m sorry you’re not feeling well puppet man. I hope you look after yourself. It’s easier said than done.
Get well.

I hear you with ‘lingering illness’. My left ear is still clogged up from the ear infection I had at New Years. Still draining and I still sound like a deaf geriatric… “WHHHAAAATTTT?”
Thanks for the well wishes…

the bulgarian splits - I went lower but tried to hit some higher reps
I need some volume so I put it here
thanks for looking.
coming back off of pneumonia or whaterver lung crud you had is never a walk in the park. You’re doing what you can and like you said - it felt good!
thanks George!!

Neck!!! did some stuff pushing a med ball around - on a wall

Good to see you feeling well enough to train. I got some funk too, but it doesn’t seem to have hit me as bad as what you got. Nice work getting the blood flowing again.

Nice front squats, coming off an illness zaps your power.
great to hear that there may be light at the end of the tunnel on the neck probs
and what’s up with a PR coming off a illness (I didn’t see that earlier)
Thanks people-
Soldog I figure if Tony can front squat it so can I 
I am suffering from DOMS today.
pvc rolled did some jump rope
and some calisthenics BW junk
little man watches me all the time and does what I do… this is exciting
we do little Judo/wrestling drills all the time little crawls
drag your self with just your arms
bw Squats
pushups
and Little man is trying to do all of it- seriously.
today he did a bunch of forward and backward neck bridges- cause I was playing with them…
he is just 11 months old
now here is where I am going to get into trouble
I promised the wife I would not get little man into any kind of training too early
and here he is doing neck bridges and actual pull ups on the dining table
ooops.
Funny how kids take on our interests… it drives my wife crazy.
Thanks.

Glad to hear that you’ve finally recovered from that terrible crud. Man, I’d love to see a video of little man doing pullups on the dining table. How funny/cool is that!!

Snatch off blocks- plenty of jump - very little getting low under the bar
Deads first time in 6? months I pulled last few weeks have just been playing with a trap bar.
425x1 then called it quits felt good had some speed- but felt stiff lots of strain.
sprints needed to do some- how I felt like ass tells me I need to do much more of them.
thanks for looking
I think I am seeing indications that more o-lift oriented training is about to happen here.
Carl , you might be on to something :))))))))
we will see and thank you for reading.
Bet your looking forward to getting back to the Oly stuff eh?
