Week Eight Training Log

Remember last week I discussed not having the discipline to stick with a de-load for an entire week?  That by the end of the week I was lifting too heavy for a de-load week?  Well I was disciplined this week by a stomach bug that struck swiftly and strongly roughly a day after squats on Monday.  First the stomach bug, then the snow...god, so much snow.  I, therefore, only managed one day of lifting last week...on the plus side the three workouts I missed were the first I had missed since December...but by the end of the week I was ready to get back in the gym and pick up some heavy things and then put them back down.
