hang clean 5x135 .5x185 I was done after that. I couldnt even get 185. I was done.

Don’t be silly, trash your plan and do what your body is telling you.

Well some is my fault. I havent been stretching after practice and doing all the recover techniques I should be. I just started hitting the sauna and takin epsolm salt baths. My energy is good just havent been 100% in a while. I am gonna see how I feel at practice today. Then I am gonna do a real recovery week. With lots of therapy.

The cold is hitting the dirty south, and it’s taking a toll on my body.

Yea Its bad. I had to change my workout time yesterday to wait for more sun. I dont know what ima do tomorrow. have to run with sweats on the whole time.

HAd a spec end day planned. That changed as the temp dropped. Cold weather and sore achilles dont mix. I warmed up and did about 5x10m bs and packed it up. The swirling wind and cold air influenced my decision.
