Spent the last few days out of town for a work meeting. Kinda works out though because I was starting day one of each week on a Thursday/Friday. Now I can get back to normal with Monday being day one.

Missed yesterday because of work. Feel like I'm getting sick today, but I didn't want to skip another day. Felt like ass and cut it short. Probably did just enough to interfere with my body fighting off whatever is ailing me.

Realized during the workout on Thursday that I tweaked my knee. Woke up the next morning and found out that I fucked my elbow too. Skipped Friday workout because I couldn't straighten my arm without a good amount of pain.

Knee still a little stiff today and the elbow made me call off a few movements. Taking the week off would make sense for a few reasons, but I'll wait and see.

Body is falling apart. Knee still tight, elbow still preventing a bunch of movements, and now my shoulder hurts more that usual. Considered resting this week, but decided to just do the basics instead.

Dr Love suggest , derail off program for a couple weeks and change it up. Put some new movements on those joints and blood in the muscles. Not a crazy paced HITT berserker but 30 min blast sessions of minimal weights. Flush that crap out.
 
Sorry to hear about the injuries. Shit sucks. I've been racking up the injuries too the past year. It especially sucks because I feel like you are similar to me in that you are pretty disciplined with your lifting and you probably just want to lift pain free. I think we are close in age too. I turn 38 in May. I just don't heal the same like I did even just 2 years ago. I've been thinking of trying a different training style like a bodybuilding type thing but I don't know. Heavy lifting is was gets me off lol. Hang in there, kid!
