• Slept pretty well and spent the morning doing jobs at home, while also dealing with a crappy tummy so I wasn’t too keen on squatting today. Almost skipped it but went out in the afternoon for a lash anyway.

• Should really have belt squatted to save my back but couldn’t be bothered setting up the attachment, Hatfield squats were less effort. Worked up to what were some pretty easy sets, wearing a belt. They had me blowing a bit and one or two reps tweaked my wrist but my back seemed to hold up OK.
• Grabbed the dumbbells and did some light RDLs, not much to report other than lots of heavy breathing. Easier on my wrist than using a barbell.
• Some light benching, had to be careful how I pick up the dumbbell with my left hand but the sets themselves were ok. Was surprised when the third set got challenging.
• Tried a few chin ups, didn’t hurt but they will if I push them so I bailed on these. So grabbed the dumbbells and did some rows instead. Got pretty shaky at the end of each set and quit after two, had better things to do.
• Done in 43 minutes. At least I’m still doing something.
