6.26.11 - Unplanned No Intensity Day

Doing the MP with the 32kg yesterday felt light but I guess my tendons weren't ready for it. My bursitis in my right shoulder flared up last night. There is pain in the Delt-Bicep connection. So all I did today was Intu-Flow.

Intu-Flow

Ok....early morning sessions next week

The change in working hours has wreaked havoc on my training. Next week, I am going to try and get up 5:00 am and get my session in before work. This really shouldn't be a problem since for most of the last 7 years I have gotten up at 4:45 am for work.
It may take some time to adjust, but I am missing training! But I have a lot of other stuff going on that takes my time when i get home. I am prepping my house to put it ion the market, so I can begin the process of getting back to Louisville. Then I have about 5 more certifications tests that I want to take. I need 3 of them by Sept 16.

Morning training can't be that hard!

Stress conversion

I broke out the GymBoss today instead of counting reps on Strain and Stress much better.

This last month and a half has been a dozy to my training. Being out of town for 2 weeks, then the transition to the new job. Then I am splitting the remaining time with family, setting up a home lab (have to be up on the latest technology since i work for a value added reseller) and then getting the house ready for sale so I can move back home, Louisville, KY. Training has been taking a back seat. I sure can tell by being stiff, gaining weight and aching in places I shouldn't. I have to be more dedicated or I will be the fat slob I was in 2006 again. Ain't happening........
