hit a bit of a snag in my training for the last few sessions. 2 weekends ago i strained a muscle or 2 in my right forearm carrying some concrete mesh board up 2 flights of stairs and it hurts like hell if i do heavy rows, OH presses, or chins so i've had to stay light or simply not do them at all. still, my squats, deads and bench have kept on moving steadily so i'm not totally pissed off about it yet! i'll just keep icing it at night and try not to overuse it on my job so the bloody thing can heal up.

i tried doing some janda (sp?) situps tonight. i set up my flat bench crosswise within the cage with one of the catch bars at the right height to sit behind my calves and i think this setup will work very well. man those are really hard to do, 2 sets of 7 reps (probably not full reps either) and my abs were TOAST! So i'll probably work those into the weekly ab training now.

friday should see me hitting a new PR on squats so i am totally jazzed for that woo hoo! not that it's heavy compared to most of you guys (and girls, lol!) here, but a PR is a PR!!
