Just worked up the stack doing sets of 8 until it got kind of hard

If a workout isn’t recorded on T Nation, is it really a workout?
Just kidding.

Hey dude how’s things going? You still all good and training hard just not logging.

Hey man, thanks for checking in.
A little of both. I haven’t been training particularly hard. I have gotten 2-3 sessions in per week the last couple weeks. We’ve had a couple things going on that have just gotten in the way. We’re headed on vacation so I won’t be doing anything for another week!

Appreciate the note man. Responding to you kind of forced me to realize I’m Captain Excuses. I threw my bands in my bag on the way out yesterday morning and have been knocking some stuff out.
Thank you for the accountability!

It’s easy to let life take over but I know I’m a much better husband/ dad/ employee/ manager when I’ve got a solid workout programme going. I guess it’s a mental health thing but it’s so important for so many people.
Glad you are good anyhow and any exercise is better than none (unless it’s CrossFit).

Did band workouts with my son the last couple days while he had Avengers on. It was good.
Today I did:
110 pull-ups
220 push-ups
220 crunches
110 burpees
1.1 miles (I think) lunge walks
For those whose work is done:
Well done.
Be thou at peace.

It took at least an hour. Maybe two. I honestly have no idea.
