24/7 MS body aches have set in and they're killing my sleep down to about 3-4 hours. Making a point of getting plenty of physical rest through the night though. One lift a day with an accessory lift seems to be manageable at the moment

Press 127x3x5
Supinated Pull Down 152.5x10x3

3 hours of hiking. About 5 miles round trip with a 1500' elevation gain up and then down

Squat 260x3x5

Wanted to do 260x5x3 but just wasn't possible even resting for 3 hours after the hike. My last PR was 270x2x7 so closing in on that and want to get back to 5 reps 3 sets next workout though.

Weight: 205

A little frustrated with my bench today, feels like my triceps are the limiting factor

Bench 174 4x2, 3x1, 2x2 (15 reps total)
Bench 155 5x1
Supinated Pull Down 155x10x3
JM Press 55x10x3 - Thought I would try the JM Press for the first time. It definitely targeted the triceps quite well in a nice controlled manner

Had better feel and coordination today compared to yesterday
Whenever I eat at least 50g of protein a few hours before working out the weights seem to move a lot easier

Press 132x3x4, x2 then failed 3 attempts, x1 finished off final rep
Supinated Pull Down 160x10x3
Pin Bench Press - 155x5x3 - 2" of Reduced ROM, press from the safety bars - I really like this variation
