Comments

Sleep - Time and Quality: Could NOT sleep. Ended up watching a movie to pass the time, curled up with the wheatie because my stomach was so upset. Passed out between 0600-0700, waking several times and passing out again, getting up at ~1300. NOT cool . . .

Mood/Aggression: Ok.

Energy: Didn't have ANY thing morning. Been ok since work. Really having to work at it, though.

Stimulant Effects: None.

Mental Focus and Clarity: Since been up - on the ball.

Metabolism: Ok.

Appetite: Forcing down the food today (and yesterday). Not able to finish what I would normally scarf down in a few minutes, everything still upsetting my stomach and making it pain beyond pain immediately post-eating and lasting several HOURS (or more!) . . .

Stress: Picking up again . . .

Endurance: Fine.

Strength: Same as last week - and the session is not about strength, either (NONE of them are really, for the next 5.5 weeks).

Pump: Painful.

Vascularity: Veins through torso more noticeable now.

Quality of Training: Resistance training was PAINFUL, and my heart was beating so fast, it felt like it might burst out of my chest! Making sure I really pushed it though, even when my body was SCREAMING "NO!" . . .

Recovery: I woke feeling like sh*t, and I still feel like sh*t . . .
