Sarah and I went to the gym after work. Started a mini-cut yesterday and ate very few carbs all day before evening WO. I've never done that before becuase I used to work out exclusively in the AM, or over lunch at the latest. Wasn't sure how I'd feel working out late in the day on restricted carbs. I was pleasantly surprised and it went very well.

Started w/ incline and I got that elusive 8th rep on the 3rd set. I can't really call it a PR because these weren't paused as much as they should have been. Very good work. The drop set at 70#'s felt so heavy. I spent it all on first 3 sets. Sarah got more reps w/ 35#'s than she's ever gotten tonight I think. I only did 2 sets of OHP to save the shoulder and I went way to close to failure on the last set. Really stupid. Since today was a push day, we threw in 3 sets of heavy abs here for a "break" before more pressing.

Bench felt OK. R shoulder a little funky and short rests so reps dropped quickly. Tried to keep these to parallel, but it's hard for me to tell. I tried to do the drop set on incline to parallel too. Sarah gives me queues when I got too low. My left arm always drops too low. Next I did overhead tri's while sarah did CGBP. I bumped up to 90#'s today. Felt good, but only got 8 reps so I dropped to 85#'s for last 2 sets. Then we did 2 sets of incline fly's and finished off the WO with some tri and delt work.

Great WO. Sarah hit some rep PR's and bumped up the weight on CGBP I think. I got a rep "pr" on incline and bumped the weight on overhead tri's and went heavier on crunches than I have in a long time.

Nutrition:

I weighed 185.0 this morning. I was 182.4 before I went to the gym. That's down from 188 on Monday, so I was fairly depleted prior to the WO. Good nutrition day. Not super strict cut, just low carbs prior to WO, then ate the majority of my cals post-wo (which is what I think I'll keep doing).
