Thurs/Fri

Thursday I went on a carzy hike... Shouldn't have been that bad, but we definitely took an especially hard route up.  Was about 6 hours by the time we finished, but about 2 hours was a 4 limb climb and we dropped some water so we ran out with over 2 hours left... Anyways, was fun but definitely draining!

185 x5
205 x5
225 x5
245 x5
265 x5

325 2x4
375 2x3
425 3x3
475 4x2
bleh... Obviously drained from the hike yesterday.  Also, only used straps on last 2 sets so hands were hurting.  Need to stop with the straps and figure out how to make my hands stop hurting.  Not overly worried, but over/under is almost starting to feel odd.  Will make an effort to do up to and including my first work set without straps.

Few light sets of seated/standing GM and a couple sets of chest flyes.

Good day all things considered.  I have been looking through my old log and I see that the reason I have probably felt more drained durign training lately is because of a big increase in deadlift weights.  From using straps and making the training max much higher to my actual max...  I think I might extend the taper up to 6 weeks since I think there is a good bit of fatigue setting in from the jump in deadlift work.  We will see.
