I had a big drop off in my AMR TB DL set on Friday. I was really beat from work the night before and I just wasn't feeling 100%. I almost opted out of the top set but at least I pushed through. I may have to reset my max and work back up again depending on how this week goes,

I took a spill Friday after my workout. I was doing some yard work and was dragging a phalanx of vines that I trimmed when I tripped over a dumbbell and fell hard on my ass and hip. It was sore as **** to where I could barely walk. Felt better Saturday and it didn't effect upper body stuff. Went to work Saturday night and of course it was busy as hell but I made it through my shift. Feels a lot better today so I'm hoping I dodged a bullet.

I didn't try my AMR set on DL's Friday. It was drizzling and I just didn't feel like I could get 1 rep at 340 much less multiple reps. I'm going to back off this week and start a new cycle based off a new much lower max.

I started a no carb diet on Wednesday. Not so much to lose weight but to see the effect that eating no sugar has on inflamation in my knee and shoulder. 5 days in and those joints actually feel better. I'll give it a few more days and reevaluate.

So after 10 days of no sugar I can say I felt a little drained doing DL's but my knee, which is always swollen, actually looks like a normal knee. I'm actually amazed and I'll take the trade off. I'm going to try to stay between 180 and 185 and limit my sugar intake.

Sugar ist really bad for joints, ligaments
etc. Good approach you got there.

You'd think I would have figured it out before I was 67. It's impossible for me to totally eliminate sugar and still enjoy life (gotta have ice cream nd an occasional dessert) but I'm trying to reduce my intake.

1/22 TB DL: RAINED OUT. I think this only the 2nd time in almost 4 years since I started the covid backyayd workout that I couldn't get my lifting in due to rain. It took me 2 1/2 hours to get to work (it normally takes 20 minutes) because of flooding. Worst rain I've seen in 44 years in SD.

Damn, my DL's have gone in the toilet. I missed a workout on vacation and another because of rain. Not sure if that's it or I just need a change. Change it is.
