Daily Notes:
Right now, I'm split on the idea of taking today as a rest day or not. On the one hand, taking today off would mean missing "Cindy", which I would like to do to check my progress. On the other hand, this is workout day #3 for me and I already know I wasn't at my best yesterday. But, I'm sure I can still bust out Cindy pretty good today. Last time we did it was in March and I busted out 11 1/3 rounds. This time, I should get at least 15 and really, whatever score I end up with I can just note on here that it was day 3 and I was stiff or whatever, which is absolutely the case.

Update: finished with 12 rounds, which is a bit disappointing considering how much stronger I am now compared to March. The pushups were the big sticking point. The answer to that issue is 1) drop actual weight, 2) do more bench press and 3) more dips. Looking at my previous posts, it looks like when we did it in March, 4 of the previous 7 days had been rest days. Not sure what was going on then, but there you have it.

Tomorrow is definitely a rest day. Thursday is up in the air. I would like to make it to LAF that day and do some squats and bench press, but that would likely be after a WOD at Stoneway. Then Sunday, I can go again and maybe do some lighter sets of squats along with Deads and Press.
