---------------------

I think I felt some of the benefits of creatine tonight. A certain springiness in my reps even despite my overall distraction (I'm moving house). Must keep drinking water.

I'm surprised I'm doing as well as I am on the bench. I just need to take it slow and steady, especially seeing as I I felt a twinge in my right shoulder when I lowered the bar on the hang clean in my complex sets.

Oh, and speaking of complexes... THEY'RE HARD!!! Good news is that my press ("the limiting lift") felt stronger.

Lastly, the squat set FELT like I thinking heavy squat sets should. Lots of breathing reps (John McCallum would be proud).

Stay tuned.
