Went to bed at 8:45 last night. Slept better. Had a weird sinus pressure headache that would blast me about 1/3 the way up on squats but felt fine otherwise.

Ear still plugged, not painful yet but very frustrating. I am now pretty sure the nasal rinse is the trigger for my infections- blockage happened shortly after I used it the first time with this cold trying to clear my sinuses.
Also had a fun issue during deadlifts, had a painful burp creep up every second rep during every set. Top set I did the rep, set it down, stood up, burped, reset, and pulled one more. Lowered the weight more than planned so I could get through the reps regardless, just suffered through the sets.

Attached the triceps straps on the wrong link accidentally, so the start of the rep was 1" lower, but I did more weight so probably evens out?

Down .04mi on the tabata. Probably warmer in the garage than that distance too, which makes a huge difference in resistance. Going from <20 to >50 makes the fan feel like it moves 2x easier. Granted it's only 40 today, but it was probably colder than that a month ago.

First single of 150 was @9. Untracked the second too wild, just gave up. Still got more reps with more weight on the volume.

Good morning
140x12x3
So, I'm not sure if this is just a GM thing, or I have been comically deficient- actually squeezing my abs at the start of a rep and holding it? Have I not been doing that this whole time? Have I been doing everything wrong, or am I just forgetting what I actually do when I squat?

Forgot to take caffeine pill on top of the espresso, excuses. Bench was hard. Likely need lower RPE on one of the bench days.

Seeming pretty clear that my strength performance is directly tied to my conditioning. Stop conditioning, strength takes a nosedive.

Let my wrist get slack on the 4th set of skull crushers, didn't want to fail a rep so I racked, rest, and did the last rep.
Mile time not terrible considering I haven't run in a month, and even longer before that.

I've had entirely too much Costco pizza in the last 2 days. Kid birthday party on Sat, calculated I would need 5 based on how much my kids usually eat. Had 3 full pizzas left over.
