Did another COVID workout this evening:

50 Iron Woody heavy band pressdowns
30 axle curls
20 Hindu squats

Got a nice pump in the arms, missed that feeling. Especially from having to go so much slower on the curls than norm.

Cough is at its worst today. Very violent and body-convulsing. I will take that over the previous phase's swinging fevers, delirium that made it hard to think, and crushing malaise, though.

Stomach has been gurgling and upset again. Previously it could have been from anything, maybe from more medicine and less food, but today it's from a far better source:

So much easier to drink food than eat. Unfortunately, while it has great carbohydrate sources and beef protein is one part of the protein blend, in my feverish haze when ordering I totally didn't see that the first protein ingredient is pea protein, which I've heard people say makes them gassy. It's also an inferior protein, but I spiked it with my Ascent whey from Costco.

Also got a new stock of beef bone broth and chicken noodle soup, which have been wins in terms of digestion so far, especially with lemon.

Trying to amp up my aggression. I'm enjoying metal music again when previously I didn't want to listen to anything but quiet travel shows. Also must mention that this was the first morning I woke-up without feeling like death.

Typing this while the sun sets in the balcony and it's a nice mood.
