This peppermint tea has been my mvp for the day while getting through this cold. Add a bit of honey, and it's perfect. Really need to up my holistic game.

Had a nice upper body day. Everything felt pretty good. There's some elbow pain from squatting earlier this week, but some shoulder mobility work will alleviate that. After doing some axel presses, I've finally tested the waters on my 3 main lifts. I'll see where I can get them to by the end of year, then we'll set progression goals.

Nice, little deadlift session today. Good use of all those Thanksgiving carbs calories. The three top sets from today are 365 lbs x 1, 405x1, and a back off for 375x2. Slowly building my strength back up. 405 wasn't moving much 3 weeks ago.
