That’s it. Still don’t feel like I have caught COVID. Idk. I felt a little off for one day but that was about it.

Wife is doing better. We used this unscheduled time off of work to do some spring cleaning.

Nice garage session Shane. (I think you said that was in the garage at least?) Strong sets. Glad you are still feeling good and got some spring cleaning in! :sunglasses:

Thanks Trent. Yep a garage session. I was the strongest guy in the gym today. :sunglasses:

Tomorrow’s plan is to hit my Saturday metcon. Probably going to look a lot like last weeks.

Thanks Trent. Feeling those deadlifts today makes me realize I need to get those programmed in again.

I bet. That’s one exercise I usually don’t do in a metcon. Well, not at 275 at least. :joy: I thought you had been doing deads lately but maybe I was mistaken…

I haven’t been doing them like I used to. I throw them in about once a month.

Solid session Shane. Man that is some seriously respectable weight on High incline DBs. That was a ton of work in 60 minutes. No idea how you cram it all in.

Nice ride Shane. I’m a little concerned about your pace though. It’s getting a little in the neighborhood of mine. :joy: And good luck on the 300 bike rides in the next three weeks. If anyone can do it you can! :mountain_biking_man: J/K. I know what you meant. :wink:

Leg day without squats, must be blasphemous. Going to try this for 6 to 8 weeks and see how I like it.

Nice session Shane. Still nice and heavy on leg press. Why no squats? Is your knee hurting?

Thanks Trent. Just taking a break from them for a while. Yes, my knee is basically hurting every morning when I get out of bed. I doubt stopping squatting is going to help much but I figure it doesn’t hurt to see if it makes a difference.

Makes sense. If squatting has aggravated it in the past then removing it is worth a shot to see if that provides relief.
