Kept volume work low/minimal after the @10ten set plus right elbow is fussy this week. Happy with these reps.

I do band pullaparts or facepulls for 30 seconds of tension between all pressing sets.

I will be working in West Texas soon. Decent gym available.

So what am I to do when life makes training a lower priority? (Selling house, new job,big moves coming)
Make what I do count and don’t stress about it.
Doing some simple 8-5-2 for a while focusing on staying healthy and capable and improving form. Starting light and leave some room for improvement with time. Body composition is doing good.

Chins
