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:

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!
