It was Boxing Day blowout in the gym. Still feeling like I’m fighting something off, as I was a bit slow to start again, but felt great as the workout went on. I’ll have to watch it, though. My son has finally shaken his cold off, but now my wife seems to be next in line. Is it just a matter of time, or can I fight the fight…

Boxing Day Blowout Summary
It was a great post-Christmas workout, but it took a while to get there. Another semi-slow start, and a bit of a struggle to get out of bed, but not for lack of motivation. Sometimes it’s tougher to find the balance between training smart and training hard, but I don’t want to make any excuses either. Everything felt good, though, and strength was up again, although I was cautious because of the potentially impending cold. I know it was a decent workout, though, since my wife was asking what all the noise was. LOL! So much for letting the family sleep in.
