Comments

Sleep - Time and Quality: Passed out after eating last night - eating does that to me, and has for a while, no matter how much or little I eat, which is odd. Woke up with a sharp pain in my temples and a bitingly painful stomach.

Mood/Aggression: The switch can flip at any time.

Energy: I'm feeling slightly better that I have been the last few days - which is drained and shattered beyond belief.

Mental Focus and Clarity: Can't let this go - the next month is the most demanding re study.

Stress: I've taken measures to see if I can get this down even a little, because it's getting far too much for me, especially after this last week.

Libido: Doesn't feel like multiple times daily is enough.

Joints: Knees I have not had any more problems with. Elbows are constantly clicking and during resistance training today, even CRACKING.

Endurance: Good.

Strength: Increased weights from this session last week.

Pump: Some.

Vascularity: Better.

Quality of Training: It was ok. Took a little time to get into it, but once I did, I was fine.

Recovery: Physical recovery is nothing - it's when the damage is in the MIND that you have need for concern.

Other Notes: I finished the tub of Watermelon-Kiwi BC+EAA on Sunday and are back to using the Grape flavour. I used the last PerformaStrip VB-12 pre-training this morning, and my current bottle of BLACK CATS runs out after my second dose later. The last of the Eviscerate Smolder will also be gone after my application tonight . . . From yesterday, I have increased my dosage of Erase, dosing two caps each dose . . .

Question of the Day

In our torment, is it we who are twisted and not the world that is torn?
