The Battle Chef Posted February 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 I ate like an asshole all weekend, and amazingly I feel like a sack of shit today. Could not complete warmup sets, going back to bed. Edit- felt ok enough to do just squats. 4x5x100# 2 Quote The Battle Chef's Log Link to comment

The Battle Chef Posted March 3, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2020 Benched & rowed 3x5x135#. My body could do more but the lump of scar tissue said "no", as the bar rested directly on top of it. Same annoyance as last year. Oh well. 1 Quote The Battle Chef's Log Link to comment
The Battle Chef Posted March 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2020 Deadlifted 3x5x205 for easy reps the other day, and pressed 3x5x105 today. Next week'll be testing my training maxes. 1 Quote The Battle Chef's Log Link to comment
The Battle Chef Posted March 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 Yesterday I squatted 190# for 3, which was really nice. BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, my A1C (blood sugar indicator measured for diagnosing type 2 diabetes) went from 9.0 (dangerously high) to 5.7 (the upper limit of "normal") in 3 months! All the low carb/fasting bullcrap actually worked! 1 Quote The Battle Chef's Log Link to comment

The Battle Chef Posted March 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 Benched & rowed 145 for 6. Again, my body could do more, but my darn hand could not handle much more mass smashing on it. 6 reps was a good, solid effort though. 1 Quote The Battle Chef's Log Link to comment
