      Wednesday: 10/22/2025 - Shoulders

      Good session! Realized, one barbell movement is more than enough for the Shoulders! Figure that was one thing putting additional stress on my pecs. Pump was sweet and strength continues to climb =)

      *Haven't been sleeping well since last weekend; however, going to tough it out today! Figure it'll help me sleep training two days in a row.

      Monday: 10/27/2025 - Legs

      The pain spots in my upper IT Bands near the glute area acted up again (didn't last session for whatever reason). STILL got it done though! Pump was sweet, minus some pain. What else is new, eh? =)

      Will most likely train tomorrow. Had to take my truck in for a recall so I'm not sure when it will be completed. Plus, with the pain in the upper IT Band area, I didn't sleep so well.

      Nah, just some rough spots that act up and get inflamed if I get lazy and don't perform the proper outside of the gym recovery work.

      Wednesday: 10/22/2025 - Chest

      NO PAIN during pressing =) I did use the American Press Bar which has neutral handles (not sure why my stubborn ass didn't think of this before) which alleviates pressure/inflammation on the injured Pressing muscles compared to a regular barbell. In fact, EliteFTS designed it FOR THAT REASON, HAHA! Pump was sweet and I was THRILLED to get a good chest session in.

      *Getting the kiddos tomorrow for early dismissal and it's HALLOWEEN! I'll be able to participate in the fun neighborhood Halloween event we have every year! Won't look out the window sadly =) =) It'll be the only time I'll have my kiddos for Halloween since the divorce and I'm looking forward to it very much!!!!!!!!!!!! Plus we are going down to the coast Saturday morning =) =)
