Spent time with friends and eating big.
Looking forward to getting it in tomorrow.
Thought of the day:
If you want to improve on something you have to practice it or something a lot like it at least 2 x per week. Variety can be the spice of life (and lifts), but you cant go 10 days without your main stay skills and can't go much more than 6 days with out your aerobic fitness being affected. Those skills and "nervous system" adaptations are almost twice as sticky as adaptations of the cardiovascular system. But "practice makes perfect" and without frequent practice one can't be even moving toward perfection!
This makes me think of the multi-millon dollar arm of the NFL Punter Joshua Miller (That's right ARM.) In his off season he told me he was still dropping the ball at his foot 100s of times a day to keep the motor pattern perfect. When he was de-training and "resting" he still kept it fresh and practiced.
Keeping the motor patterns "fresh" is far more important then variety for varieties sake. I think most trainees and trainers are too concerned with "freshness" as it relates to novelty and not as mindful of a result - a testable result.
