Felt really good today. Don't know if its the TRT kicking in, CPAP machine, or the good nap I took this afternoon. I'm also gaining weight. Put on almost 10 pounds over the last month. My eating habits didn't really change at all during the holidays so I don't think it's that. I started gaining around this time last year and then lost it all after I got covid.

Odd day. Woke up at 6 which is way early for me. Had to travel for work so I drove 5 hours. Thought knocking that out early was good, but then my daily nap went for two hours instead of the usual 45 minutes. Long nap fucked me up so I was moving slow on everything today.

Things might get a little screwed up for the next week or so. Out of town for work for a couple of days starting tomorrow. Then next week I have painters coming to work on my house. I've been on this program for the last four months. I got a 5/3/1 book for Christmas and I am thinking I may switch over to the BBB program for a little while.

Have the week off from work, but I am expecting for the inside of my house to be painted. I'll have to tear down the "gym" so I would probably miss at least one day. Decided I'll give 5/3/1 BBB a shot, but I didn't want to fuck the first week up so I did a reduced version of it today just to try it out and get some rest.

I followed the recommendations to come up with the weight for the volume sets. It felt really light, but I guess I will find out if that many reps gets me sore.

I stayed on the last program for four months so I am liking the change of pace. It is more simple and I am done in about an hour instead of the hour and a half I was doing before.
