Back day - deadlifts and farmer's picks

I may be coming down with a bad cold, as my kids have been sick all week, and I don't feel great today.  With that in mind, here's what I struggled to get done today:

				Weight	Reps
Warm-up and stretch
Reverse Hyper				200	25
Deadlift (Ivanko clips)				146	12
				256	6
				386	4

				486	2
Farmer (pick only)				290	4

			held for 25 seconds	615	1
Medicine ball picks (for cardio)				100	15

Kettle Bell Swings				52	12
Reverse Hyper				200	15
Abs (weighted)				60	50
Grip work with CoC				140	50
Cool-down and stretch

Auxiliary workout day

I haven't posted for a week or so and need to play catch-up.  I have been lifting, which is the important part.  A guy has joined me that is going to try to walk-on to the Utah Football Team.  He's about 6'6 and 275 lbs right now - a natural offensive tackle.  He's coming along nicely and I hope he gets to the point he's pushing towards.  He's definitely putting in the work.

Basically, the last few weeks have looked like this:
Monday: bench or other pressing
Tuesday: squat or deadlift, alternating weeks
Wednesday: generally day off, stretching, sometimes cardio
Thursday: whatever didn't hit Tuesday, gets done here, but light including more pressing
Saturday: heavy day, usually heavy pulls and overhead

I haven't been down to Springville for a few weeks as schedules didn't align.  I also had a bad stomach flu a week ago that kept me from going.  I need to get some implement work in, and am hoping to be able to do that this week.

Yesterday was auxiliary work as I was sore from Tuesday and wanted something in the tank for Saturday.  Here is the workout:

Calf raises				135	75
Shoulder DB work				25	160
Shoulder cable work				25	400
Shoulder cable work				50	400

Stretch and cool down

In terms of diet/eating, I'm doing ok, not great.  I need to improve.  I am staying hydrated as best I can, but my protein intake is probably a bit light right now.  Sometimes, you just need a couple weeks off, though, to let your body normalize a bit, then back to work!

Looking forward to a big day tomorrow.  Thanks for reading!
