Workout Journal Notes

What a difference a week makes! From double cluster training to double easy.

I still was feeling some tension in the last few reps of External Rotations and Zottman curls, but this is “Very Light” load week, not completely sedentary week, so that’s to be expected.

Part of me is already twitching and ready to dive into the next phase at full intensity, but I know the recovery week is there for a reason and will only improve my future results.

I’ll be hitting the park tomorrow for sprints, and 40′s are on the menu.
