Week 1... well actually this is also the last of this program for awhile. Going to put my training back in Phil's hands again. Probably from now through the throwing season at least.

No more thinking!!

Highlight of today was zero back niggles. Not a lot of work but very positive that I'm actually healing up. That and chasing the grand goober around the basement between sets. Man he's a busy little fraggle.

DO Deadlift WU to 405 x 7 x 2r, 6r

Good enough. Don't need to push it and tweak my back again right away.

Week 6. I picked up one of those NAP mouthpieces today to stop grinding my teeth and maybe prevent some neck pain. It'll take a few sessions to give a good assessment but for now I know it sure increases the spittle production.

Morning

Block 1 benching. Still feeling pretty crappy. I think the grandgoober gave me a stomach bug. Yesterday I felt really bad as the day progressed. Took it easy today. Hopefully I can do 3 days in a row here to not mess with my arbitrary schedule.

Week 6 squat. Guts are a bit upset from the holiday food but crapping my pants hasn't kept me from squatting yet. I also brought my stance in to shoulder width or maybe a tad narrower as well. Felt good.
