Sunday thru Wednesday
Started with a tickly cough Sunday. Monday it was full blown. Everything bar the sweats and as temperature. Joints ached, felt washed out... you named it. I average 6000 steps. Tuesday, 90% of which was spent in bed I managed 200. No Mon or Tues workouts... if only lol. Finally Wednesday I took some of my stronger meds and started to feel human. Even today's workout, see below, had me puking up as I left the house. F**k. Hopefully I wont regret that later

Thursday

to 70kg x 8 reps

s/s

Skull Crushers
to 79kg x 8 reps


Standing BB Wrist Curls
