Boy, coming back into lifting after so long off kinda sucks. My ability to recover has decreased significantly from such little volume.
Lean into the suffering.
Push low weight back down sets or superset with a safer compound or even isolation to add more volume & drive GPP safely.
Or run giant sets at the end if you need to be very careful on the big lifts, however you can get more done overall in your training window.
As always, I appreciate it!
Was thinking of myo reps or cluster sets however, giant sets could be key as well.
It’s going around. Something like a flu took my wife out for about 48 hours Fri-Sat, already better again. Pretty crazy.
Good to see you back on. Not sure why but this is the first update I have gotten on.your log. Sorry to hear you have been sick.
that's wild man. Flu came back with a vengeance this year. hope you recover fastYeah it sucks, swab just came back positive for Influenza A.
Feel better and have a merry Christmas man!
Bummer about the flu. Everyone should consider Cistus tea. Actually has decent data for its anti viral properties.
Great quality time with the kids is definitely a justifiable reason to put off a session in my book. You aren't prepping for anything.Didn’t make it to the gym. Daughter wanted to hang out and play games, watch movies, pillow fight among other things which I will gladly do. Pretty sore in my glutes today anyhow so really it all worked out.
I will hit the gym tomorrow though, that’s a sure thing.

Haven’t lifted since. I’ve had diarrhea for the last three days, coughing like crazy and my heart rate has consistently been in the 100sunless I’m sleeping.
COVID or flu maybe? Feel better homie! Keep your sodium/fluid up.
Idk having had both I'd waaaaaaaaay prefer COVID over the flu. The flu feels like f'ing death on spikes in fire covered in ice. While puking with your head in a vice and someone running razor blades along your skin.I just had influenza A. Which sucked lol who knows. Imma assume my HR is elevated because of dehydration, I haven’t been keeping up with water intake.
Hope it isn’t Covid, well I guess if it is I’m handling it WAY better than my first bout.
Going to get cardio, air squats and push ups in today.

I'll gladly give up the opportunity to smell my own farts for a week over that.
