The election depressed me and I didn't sleep enough some days this week, plus I had eaten an early lunch without an afternoon coffee, so I was feeling weak for this workout. I went down in weight on FSQ and DL compared to last week, though I believe I could have done more on DL. I once again forgot to bring my notes from the previous workout, so I was flying blind. On the other hand, I went up in weight on every other exercise and added nearly a pound of body weight. Happily, I found a slightly wider dip stand and felt a really good pump on the flyeaway.
I worked out much of my gloom about the election and my intellectual hobby these days matches my pre-workout theme song, Rage Against the Machine's "Know Your Enemy". We all lose and all err, but only losers stay defeated, only fools remain ignorant. No retreat, no surrender. Stay tuned.
