Sunday Bloody Sunday…
Sunday was bad. Friday night hit shoulders and Saturday did back. Lost some form on deadlifts and just knew it was going to be trouble. Sunday I awoke to sore lower back and shoulders. It was hotter than normal here in GA, but had worked my smaller, still bubblicious ghetto booty off mowing the lawn and cleaning up the general mess that occurs in a single dad’s house.
Now normally even when I don’t feel like working out, once I get going and get the blood flowing I get’r'done. I’ve even had some of my all time best workouts when I didn’t think I could workout. Well I got cranked up and did real well on dips to start hitting new rep records for the bodyweight sets at beginning and end and even added 10 lb.s to the weighted sets in the middle. Ok, getting a good one coming on here, but then my strength left me. Started on the bench and just could not perform. So, listening to my body I hung up the gloves and laid up on the couch to watch a movie and let recovery take place. I was off on Monday as scheduled and feel pretty good today, so it’s back at it tonight. Just might bring cardio back into the mix tonight. Been off of it for a week and a half, and I really don’t miss it, but it’s a changeup that has to occur. Can’t have the body of a god without it. Look out treadmill here I come! Well, I guess I should call my treadmill by it’s given name which is "Stupid Son-of-a Bitch", at least that’s the name I gave it.

It’s a sign! Good for you for listening to it.
Your heart must be craving a blood-pumping workout! Blast those cardio sessions, Jeff! The weights are patient.
