More decent weight action to celebrate my “weekend.” On Monday I decided to do more neutral grip pull-ups, figuring that even though I’m not yet able to do more than three per set, I can at least do as many sets as possible for a decent total count: 9 x 3, 5 x 2. Thirty-seven total reps isn’t shabby. On Tuesday, for the first time in forever, it was back to deadlifts, of the trap bar variety: 5 x 6 x 225. Again, I’m starting slowly after so long off, 225 is more of a warmup weight than an appropriate working weight, but it takes time to get back to normal. I also did some seated calf raises, 4 x 10 x 135.
My culinary adventures this “weekend” started in the Philippines with adobo chicken and then were off to Mexico for tinga poblana (pork stew). Both quite successful, if I may say.
