Comments

Mood/Aggression: Between moods - the aggression has become something playful. and teasing (WTF?!)

Energy: Although I'm having quite a few dizzy spells, I have energy - and I need it, especially after training, since I'm going to be running around non-stop for 6-7 hours tonight!

Mental Focus and Clarity: Migraine has gone, replaced by lightheadedness and dizzy spells every now and then, but I'm fine.

Stress: Creeping up again . . .

Libido: Voracious, LOL.

Endurance: Went 7 rounds of the V-Burn Challenge Circuit - definite improvement.

Painful and more painful, especially in anterior delts.

Vascularity: Small hoses in arms and strong blue lines in legs.

Quality of Training: 7 rounds of the V-Burn Challenge Circuit - definite burn all right; my anterior delts get HAMMERED every time I do this! Handstand Push-Ups are NOT getting any easier, but I'm doing them (and more of them), so I can't fault that. If it wasn't for the one minute break between rounds I have no doubt that I would be flat on the floor right about now. Pleased with the session.

Recovery: I'm still feeling my legs. And glutes. And my lower body is usually NOT the place I get DOMS. Interesting.

Other Effects: Still very thirsty . . . And for some reason, my appetite has suddenly rebooted and gone through the roof . . .
