Did a fasted workout of about 20 minutes on Sunday morning comprised of 50 burpees and shadowkickboxing. Went to the beach, had a great time and ate some seafood, then woke up the next day feeling like hell. Very nauseous and also exhausted despite 8 hours of sleep. Forced myself to lift in the evening and surprisingly had a good workout. Swiss bar bench pressed 275x5, which is what I was trying for when I first got this thing but has been eluding me since.

Then, yesterday I had a good mat pull session by repping 565x8 off 7 mats, with 1 rest pause.

In injury news, my right forearm feels worse than ever after carrying the beach cooler with that arm on Sunday. I was actually worried about deadlifting with it and risking a tear when I don't have medical insurance. It held up fine but it sucks I can't use my log right now. I am still entered in a NorCal powerlifting meet that never got rescheduled after lockdown delays but I should find a new powerlifting meet, as well as consider a refund for that one (it's been almost two years now and the date is still "TBD").
