5/1

  1. 17ā€™ā€™ box squat: barx10 145x10 195x10 235x10 285x10 325x10 375x10
  2. bench: barx20 95x10 135x10 185x10 225x10 275x7
  3. several sets of chin-ups peppered in there

The bar on my back felt good. Havenā€™t squatted for awhile. Everything felt light. Then I benched. That was a different story. I thought Iā€™d put 275 on and it was only 225.

The companies that make furniture sliders should rename them sliding fitness or something. With everyone at home and the gyms closed theyā€™d sellout in a day.

Jet stream is all wiggly and keeps pulling arctic air down into the interior, then changes location, allowing warm air to inflow. Temps are all over the place day to day, Iā€™ve been hearing.

Sunny and 40 degrees here this morning. Short sleeve weather.

Changing from a 17ā€™ā€™ to 15ā€™ā€™ box made quite a difference for me. Challenges my range of motion.
