Today my shoulders didn’t feel that strong so I used a 20 lb. kettle bell to do C&P and then did my dead lifts. I was able to up my weight by 2 lbs. and not feel that it was too heavy. It’s funny. I remember when I was in my 20’s 81 lbs. didn’t feel this heavy.

I think I won’t do my pull-ups right before dead lifts anymore. I felt that my biceps were a bit tired and the biceps do get used a tiny bit during the dead lift. Not much, but they are used to keep your arms together 🙂
Hoping to hit the pool tomorrow and do some laps using the combat side stroke.
