WEIGHTED CHINS 10X2 

I haven't done these in a long time. I used to make them a staple. I used to do sets and reps with an added 70lbs with no problem at all and singles with 88lbs and even an added 106llbs at one point.

DEEP TISSUE MASSAGE AT TWO RIVERS.

Yes, this is important for your training. No other training is advised or required today. Felt nauseous and basically cleared my schedule to recuperate until late in the day. Drank over a gallon of water and just relaxed.
