I did my best to be the least sored possible but I wasnt successful at all. Contrast shower, curcumin and foam rolling; it worked but not as I expected. At least I was feeling better to deadlift.

After gym, I tried to make like a vegetables shake made of spinach, broccoli, ginger and carrots. Horrible. It tastes like Shrek’s puke but a cup gives me a lot of minerals and vitamins so its worth it

choose 5 kg increments. step by step
Yeah I always do that and didnt like the idea of increasing 10kg at a time. But also doing like 12 reps in the 5 or + set is like I could be doing it with more weight
School year is getting to the end and my strength and energy are rising again! I had squats for today and I actually felt like doing them. Also I have to say that my gym is like hell because people doesnt give a fuck about anything. Today I got a man doing pull ups while I was squatting and I had is ass right in my face and its like wtf man are you blind or something?

I hope the deload gets here as fast as possible.
