[bull.dogz]

Back to squatting twice a day. Shoulders were sore today so wasn't too sure if I would even be able to lift.

Snatch - hips/db

Pretty tired by now

Shoulders are feeling it a little now.

No workout today. Was in too much pain so went to the chiro....I had popped a rib again. Go back Monday to make sure it's still in place. May try to lift tomorrow if I'm not too sore.

Mobility/stretching

Didn't feel too good after I started warming up for my squats. Kind of nauseous so I kept it somewhat light. My shoulders didn't feel good at all. Usually when I warm up they I don't have any pain. Today even after the prehab work they were really hurting so I decided to just do some mobility and stretching.

Was on a mission to redeem my squats this morning. Shoulder was bothering me all night so didn't do the lifts today. Probably shouldn't have done the presses either but oh well.

I didn't want to squat at all today. My whole body just hurts. I did 55 and was going to give up there. Just kept telling myself one more squat. By the time I got to 80 I had completely given up. Had no bounce or drive. Not going to squat this afternoon. Mentally and physically I'm just done.

I'm coaching CrossFit again starting this weekend so I will lift on Sunday. Back to lifting Sunday - Tuesday, Rest, Thurs-Fri, Rest. And I'm just going to squat once a day for this week.

I have videos of my snatches that I'll upload later.

Not a great morning. I thought for sure my body would be nice and rested after 2 days off. But it hurt like I haven't taken any time off. My shoulders, knees and wrist (down to my fingers) hurt all weekend. And hurt just as much this morning. No bounce in my squats at all but it's also early morning so I didn't expect too much anyways. I'll try for max this afternoon but will probably cut my squats down to once a day this week.

My left ankle is bothering me now. It was my right ankle for the last 5-6 months. Must have been over compensating on the other ankle and now it's feeling it.

Didn't sleep very well last night. Got about maybe 6 hours of sleep. Caffeine too late in the day does that to me.

I have a nasty bruise on my clavicle that makes these front squats really tough the last few days. Would probably help if I quit poking at it too but I'm just sadistic that way.

Tomorrow will be the 5th day in a row that I'm training. I usually like to train 2-3 days on then one day off. Hopefully, by splitting up my squats in the am and afternoon I will still make gains.
