My son is in town, so my wife had plans. That was all I had time for today. I had more in me at 315. I used a young guy I did not know as a spotter, and I like to be careful.

Not my normal weighted walk Wednesday. My stomach was a little uneasy for some reason, and I did not feel too strong. I skipped sandbag carries and stuck with sled work.

I was going to try belt squats, but there were too many people watching as I could not figure out the belt. I stayed with what I know.

Your commercial gym has sand bags?

No, I have been staying home during the week. I’ll probably do so, until it gets cold. I only hit the gym on the weekends.

Is it possible to get too much sleep? With the time change and I was really tired, I slept almost 11 hours. At least three more than normal. Also, I have been fighting a sinus infection for months. I finally went to the doctor last week, and got some antibiotics. The medication is hard on my stomach, and I have been feeling run down.

Today, I had zero strength and zero energy. I just did enough to get by.

I spend most weekends couching with tv. I feel really weak in Monday workouts. Got to be too much rest.
