Glad you're still updating, this is one of the logs I really get a lot out of reading. Which Spartans are you running in August?

Vacation is over. Didn't get as much use out of the sandbag as I would have liked, but did get some solid hiking and kayaking in. More importantly, my batteries are recharged and I feel fully relaxed for the first time in a long time. Jumped back into structured training today. 18 days until my next...

JKD
Flow drills, high-intensity Kali stick sparring.

Night and day compared to my last lifting session. Weights felt just right, reps were smooth. Added some deadlift volume to make up for last time, back felt totally fine.
