Body hates me. Hips and legs are sore as fk, right knee feels like it is falling apart. Two more sessions to go, just got to keep moving forward.

You got this mate. As @T3hPwnisher mentioned in one of his recent blog posts > ‘it’s already done’.

Almost done! Take an extra day or two for recovery, if needed - no point in getting injured. I probably speak for the T-Nation collective when saying we’re all looking forward to you After pics and write-up!

One if the things this taught me was the true meaning of “I need a deload”.
This is what overtraining feels like. You are on the cusp of it right now. This is when you need a break. Although I’ll add it’s now always best to get to this point before stopping.
It put a lot into perspective for me.

No stopping for extra rest now mate. Just one more session to go on Friday and then I can deload for a week. I will do a little write up and post it over the weekend or early next week. Thanks for the support mate.

Got to work hard to keep up with you mate.
Love it. There comes a times when you’ve gotta just grit your teeth and do the thing you know is going to suck. You have exemplified that here. Thank you.

Slept like a dead man last night. Woke on my alarm this morning and genuinely didn’t know what day of the week it was. Feeling like I am going to need to eat all day long today.

Just catching up - looking forward to your write up.
Just one more session to go and I will gather my thoughts and get something out. It has certainly been an experience.

At least curls were a part of that experience; it wasn’t all a waste
