Workout Journal Notes

Last week on the high-rep day (12 reps), I felt quite a burn with just the bar, but it’s always exciting to see how quickly the body readapts and muscle memory kicks in.

I played it a little safe, only adding a little bit of weight, but I quickly realized I could have handled a bit more already.

Still, I’m sure the easing back in is good for me, but I’ll be confidently increasing the weights a bit more next week.
