    Walk out the back door with a pole/line and add a few lbs of protein to your weekly intake. The dogs will appreciate the head and bones.
    Yeah, lost the LTEs with the MWF schedule and lifting with a partner. There just isn't time to get them in, and even if I did I'm not sure I could recover with the tighter schedule. My tris tend to be pretty toasty except on Mondays (until it's press time) right now as it is.

    Weight: it's the intermittent fasting, not eating in 16hr blocks, that seems to be doing it. My calories haven't really changed, but I do keep trying to figure out a way to add more in there some where. Anyway, it does seem the blubber around the middle is where the shrinking has been happening and my lifts are still going up, so it's probably not all that bad.

    Went to hop on the couch yesterday and the dog jumped up right in front of me, so I stuck my leg out to the side to avoid crushing the bastard. This put a lot of weight on the inside of my foot with my leg extended, and it sprained the inside (medial collateral ligament) of my left knee. I know, hard to picture; you really had to be there. But anyway, this probably ranks up high on the scale of accidental things to do to avoid squatting.

    It is good to see that someone your age can still be playful, chase people around the house and jump on furniture.
