Thanks. Had another rep or two in the tank on the deadlift but I left it there. I didn't want to stress my body to much, since I haven't felt good all day.

TweetThe Korean BBQ Chicken had loads of sodium that's why you are bloated. Live and learn. Get after it for the rest of the year and you will make progress. Just make little improvements and over time they will add up. The first step is realizing that you want to be a better you. Remember that every day!

Tweetpost em up and the progress you made q. progress is progress and you can use it to make changes if needed
