What more do you want? Sheesh, I'm a terrible blogger.
Work schedule changes and a bum shoulder have had me slogging through workouts. But I finally seem to have things on schedule now. I've accepted the fact that I do not want to give up 3x a week squatting and that I simply do not enjoy running around the gym over multiple stations to accomplish certain Crossfit workouts. So I'm still working on my modified routine. I might pick up some weights just so I can make 135 pound, 115 pound, 95 pound, and 45 pound barbells. That way I could workout in the backyard and not need bumpers (I'll just drop them in the grass).
I've also inadvertantly gone back to intermittent fasting (not really Warrior Diet). I no longer workout in the morning and never really ate breakfast anyway. I also never liked eating less than several hours before a workout. So, now that I workout at lunch, I'm not eating until later in the afternoon. Then I have a big dinner when I get home. I'm probably eating in a 5 hour window and fasting for the rest. It works for me. Got a squat PR and deadlift PR is right at all time high.
As far as the shoulder goes, I brokedown and went for diagnosis and therapy. I was worried I had torn something or had a separation since it's been hurting for several months. The doctor looked at it and manipulated it while stretching and pushing and asking me to move in certain direction. On one combination, something slid and shifted presumably back to the place it was supposed to be. It was pretty weird but the pain was considerably reduced. I was also glad to hear that the doctor didn't believe it was anything serious.
Finally, I saw Katie put up 135 pounds in the overhead squat. Seriously, someone from the Government needs to regulate that girl. My shoulder just siezed up again watching that.
