Wow, 505 felt like just another day in the office. Goal was just a strong single to get my body used to heavy weight again after vacation (the opposite approach many take by easing back into things). Absolutely could have done more. Actual load felt light but stability was a little shaky from being hungry, which always happens. And doing only a triple felt like cheating after pushing rep PRs with heavy weight for much of this year. Awesome stuff.

Woke-up and did 80 total push-ups. About 20 of them were with the handles but was able to do the rest without aid. Elbow has been feeling good. Left shoulder is angry with me - it's been buggy the last few weeks but seemed especially pissed after yesterday's dips. After a deep sleep last night it feels a lot better, though. Bringing in Turkish get-ups would be a good idea.
