Tweaked my back doing good mornings today. Not a bad one but I feel it. Can walk fine thankfully, just am bending over gingerly.

Did Yukon squats up to 455x3 and log pressing over the weekend. Knees hurt again, but I adjusted my stance and they felt better. It seems like I start squatting narrow, this causes knee pain, I widen, and I feel better at the heaviest set, so I just need to squat at that width period. Ate a lot, including at this newish Chinese restaurant nearby that was some of the best I've ever had.

Oh, so I tweaked my aquarium and made some additions to it. Sitting on the floor watching it with my hand flat and supporting my body made my forearm tendon hurt. Pretty weird, better not do that. I can feel it today if I twist my arm, although I don't think it's set me back much or anything.

So my arm, knee, and back are hurting today. I might just be a lifter.

  1. You're also showing your 30s, haha. People say you can't train as hard as you could in your 20s, but you absolutely can: it just hurts more, haha.

    1. Man, usually when I hear that from someone I feel annoyed in my head because they don't do anything physical and blame the slightest discomfort on either me or them getting old when they don't understand I've always been feeling SOMETHING in pain since my teens and doing serious lifting, and I've heard this from peope as young as 25, lol. But what you say is undeniably true too at this point.
