-thanks @simo74 it’s a decent setup at my local. Standard commercialised chain but it’s a whole 3min drive from home so a big win for early starts. A few too many in there early like me of late though. Best in the depths of winter when it’s too cold for the masses to actually get out of bed!
-such a glorious week weather wise, mid 20’s C - delightful spring weather.

Sorry to hear about the cold. We all came down with something a week or two ago and I am just now getting past it… Smart idea to rest. Hope you are feeling better soon!

-ok, back into the gym today after 6 days off. Only coughing up a few remnants so largely mended. Easing back in with another deload week - let’s call it ‘week 5’. And at BW67kg, the squats TM needs to come down slightly it would appear…
-thanks @simo74 @TM79 the same bug knocked a few coworkers down too, along with other people I know that I’ve had no contact with so just one of those spring things.
