Today I back squatted and bench pressed.
My body wasn’t all that sore after 18.1 yesterday, and I hadn’t done much strength work because of the Open.
Today my mind needed it.
I was sorely disappointed in my performance in 18.1 and I was feeling pretty low. I needed to lift some heavy weights to re-boost my confidence and re-set my mind for next week.
Plus, exercise is like hitting the reset button for me. It clears my mind and allows me to think and focus on what I have to do in the day. It’s clarity at its best.
So today in was me and the bar. Afterwards, I felt better. SO much better.
I know…I’m weird.
