Feel like a giant pusscake today. Waste of time even trying to train. The stress monster is creeping back into my life pretty good and I want to field dress him like the filthy animal that he is.

Dog crap today. Dead was good but I had a lot more assistance work I didn't get to. Still cant figure out why my sumo is so much lover than my regular dead. I am built for sumo.

Hips still feel really unstable. Particularly the right side. Overall not bad, I just still can't believe how anything over 3 reps feels like I'm running a marathon. I do feel like my GPP is getting better and I'm probably in almost as good a shape as I was in college sans all the partying.

A2 HS Row Machine (Seated, Seat On 6)
3 Plates Each Side
2x10

Band Resisted Face Pulls
Green Band 3x12

I feel like I should be doing MUCH more for Good Mornings, but my technique always turns into a squat morning and I felt like my chronically tight hamstrings were about to rip in half. At least that gives me a short term goal. I started a new program today, new basically meaning a much more organized program than me doing whatever I feel like whenever I feel like since that is obviously not working well. I wanted to add another exercise or two and another set of the first superset, but again, something to work for.
