Still feel like doo-doo but warmed up and did
S-235x5x3.
Attempted to press after warming up and couldn't complete set 1. Back at it on Monday, hopefully with better results.
Sometimes one works through illness. Sometimes one must rest. It's mostly guesswork. Have you ever worked with a SS coach. They can give a second opinion.
Warm ups then
S-240x5x3, last set 4 +1
B-150x5x3
Chins-3
Do you have a SS coach?
Nope
