I was actually amazed my cals were so low. Getting home late I contemplated just picking up a Whataburger, I resisted. My diet has improved considerably since I have been logging it. I have kept my carbs under control and my protein intake has remained high. I'll get my cals back up today.
No workout yesterday, but we had our first scrimmage and did really well.
Was able to keep Carbs low and Fat moderate
Macros Protein 317g, Carb 74g, Fat 106g. Calories were low with a busy day.

I am not a big carb fan. This was a challenge for me. Especially without a ton of garbage. I thought I was getting more protein than the final total. Still might have another shake before bed. In the future I would like to have...
Shoulders and arms
Standing press worked up to 135 3x8, been throwing a lot at practice so this was difficult.
Dips 4x10 30 sec rest. Again this felt difficult. Should have done close grip bench instead.

Superset skull crusher and hammer...
