Arms
Got to use my fat gripz for the first time and enjoyed them. Got a nice complete pump in my arms. Used them for some farmers walks as well. They didn't feel as difficult as I remember but it's been years since I used them. Maybe mine aren't as thick as the ones I used before but I'm glad to have them in my bag to change things up and make things a bit more difficult.
Sunday
Basketball
Played really well but didn't feel like I ran that much. It was weird I never felt out of breath or winded the whole time which is a good thing. Maybe my cardio's improving or just the flow of the game wasn't as fast as some other games. I did play really well though so I was happy about that.
Went for a massage on Sunday and really hoped it would help with some minor aches and pains. I didn't go to my regular massage therapist but went and got a full body massage where she normally focuses on an injury. The guy gave a nice deep tissue massage and while it was happening I felt like he was doing a good job. But afterwards I didn't feel how I normally do. I didn't notice the drain I normally get from full body massages and my muscles seemed to tighten right back up rather than staying loose. A bit disappointing.
Monday
Legs and back
Focused mostly on legs and back. Thought the gym was closed and ended up in the parking lot for like 10 minutes before I realized they were open. Anyway the workout was pretty good. Tried some difficult things including goblet squats which I haven't done in awhile. For whatever reason when I'm off work on Monday's for a holiday. Those days in the gym don't seem as intense and after work workouts but I still felt like I got in some decent work.
