Still getting squats fairly easily. A little lower back discomfort when I unrack the bar, but no issues when doing the squats. I’m still a bit paranoid though…..

I got my rep goal with 120lb military press, theyr were floating today. Alas, I on’y dod one drop down set, and that one after probably 10 minutes of rest. Guy I know wandered up and we conversed, so I got pulled from my workout. I sort of consider military press to be an ancillary exercise though, so no biggie I guess. Plus, like I saud, I got my top set rep goal.

After weighing in at 179lbs, plus or minus .2, for almost 2 weeks, I was at 176.8 today. That seems to be quite a drop. Water weight? I’d had plenty of fluids that morning though. Odd.

I might be changin jobs. That will probably mean some bodyweight workouts coming up; split squats, push-ups, chins, and dumbbell mil press (with 25lbs – light!).
