Training 9/20

Close grip bench - 185 - 13+3+3

At that point, I decided not to continue with the plan for the day. While it is quite possible that I wouldn't have been able to beat my reps regardless, the lack of sleep the last 3 nights definitely caught up with me and I decided to pull it back and try again Monday or Tuesday. Obviously some may call this a case of vagitis, and they may well not be wrong. However, the job of the smart coach or trainee is to do what is necessary to further results. In this case, that is allowing recovery to occur by sleeping. So, I finished up with a short circuit (minimal to no rest b/w exercises, 5x thru):

Lateral raises (5s) x10
Pushups (elbows flared to ~70 degrees) x10
KB swings x10
Face pulls x20

A little biking and I hit the door. Looking forward to giving it another go on a good night's sleep.
