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
				436	2
				486	2
				486	2
Farmer (pick only)				290	4
				390	2
			held for 25 seconds	615	1
Medicine ball picks (for cardio)				100	15
				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

Dehydration!

24-hour stomach flu has wiped me out!  I'm super dehydrated and while today was a key lift day for the week, it won't be happening.

I hit a killer deadlift session on Tuesday, working up to low 500s double-overhand, then finishing off with 4 sets of Romanian pulls for 20 reps each.  That really put the hurt on!

So Wednesday, when I got sick, trying to recover from Tuesday, while throwing up and not eating, was beyond rough.  I've had no solid food in almost 48 hours, at this point!!

Recapping, otherwise:

Monday was bench where I worked up to 365 x 5
Friday was a lot of squatting with a killer final set of 20 reps that made it hard to walk until Tuesday!

Overall, things are going well.  I continue to get stronger, and even when I'm not making sizable gains, can tell I'm cementing strength.  It is like on bench, where even with a few months off, I'd almost always be able to get 3 plates.  Similarly, certain other lifts are reaching new thresholds that always seem to be reachable, even when I don't perform them, specifically, on a regular basis.

Tomorrow, I should regain a little bit of strength, so hopefully by Saturday I can lift again!
