Summary

No major issues today. Doubling up on today and Monday so skipped pushups and the circuit.

Also aded a block out weekend coming up where I’m not working but will be in London for various events. Not sure on gym facilities for the Friday and Saturday but will definitely be lifting on the Sunday as its a strongman seminar.
