Went to a concert last night. Only got a few hours of sleep before the workout. Plus, I should have carb-backloaded (well, technically a front-load) last night but didn’t due to the concert… unless 2 beers count. 🙂

So I just didn’t have much steam this morning. But that’s alright, since it’s deload week. Huzzah.

Just did some basic benching. Opted to rep out at 135. Then hit some pullups… still difficult with the split callus, but that’s healing. Opted to do some dips too… more compound than a JM Press or DB flies.

Kept it simple and deloading.
