Wrap Up of Accessory Day and Squats

In terms of training, the week didn't end nearly as well as it began. I had two crazy fantastic workouts earlier in the week but I had a pretty rough accessory day and my squat day was just so so. I've been dealing with a little back pain the last couple days but after much foam rolling, stretching, and hot baths I think it's well on the road to recovery.

I did squats this morning before work and they went okay. I didn't go as heavy as the plan called for because I wasn't hitting depth. So I dropped the weight a bit and really focused on going deep and pausing at the bottom. I'm a little frustrated with the lack of progression on my squat but after my meet (which is just push/pull) I'm going to start a new program where I focus tons on my squat.

My schedule is changing a bit now that I am working at Nunn's so I'm not exactly sure what my training schedule will be from here on out. Saturday, Sunday, and Monday I have plenty of time to train; however, I really don't want to do 3 days back to back to back so we shall see what I can come up with.

I've decided to up my conditioning a bit so tonight after work I will be partaking in hill sprints (trusting that the park is no longer closed from the "flood" we had yesterday). Then tomorrow will be my usual Sunday tire flips after my bench day (my wrist had crazy bruises from this last week!)

Also, a BIG congratulations to Brandon who just found out yesterday he is officially sponsored by NutraBio! Such a great and very deserved accomplishment for him! :D


Dream big!
