Trying to walk the fine line of not pushing my elbow too much, and trying to get some work in. Bench work was fine, but chins and dips were rough on the elbow so next week I will sub those out.

Enjoying the change of pace with lower volume/higher intensity. Deads were sluggish and weak today (mental impact from the sore knee), but that’s fine – just a baseline to start from anyways.

Changing things up by doing some conjugate training. Real nice change of pace. Been a while since I did bench with any real intensity. Easy weights today but trying to balance my elbow tendonitis, and workload.
