NOTES: Today was rough. I've been struggling with my CPAP at night the last few days due to sinus issues, so I've been sleeping poorly. That alone makes me feel like ass in the morning, and since my schedule dictates a pre-6AM workout...yeah, I'm hurting. But, I drug my shit ass, pounding head out of bed and got to the gym for a deadlift day. It's going to be a long, hard road to get back to a 500lb + deadlift that's for sure. I don't feel too bad about the workout. It is what it is.

I'm glad my head was in a fog this morning. I saw some things in the gym that would drive a guy nuts today. Here's the background: Monday, I saw a guy in the gym who had gloves that matched his clothes. Seriously, dude had blue shorts, a blue shirt, and blue gloves. I laughed and thought nothing of it...until today. Same guy. New outfit. New matching gloves. Yep...today he had all grey attire with grey and black spiderweb gloves. Next to him was a man wearing a woman's shirt. No bullshit. I'm pretty sure my wife sports the same Under Armour T when she hits the gym. It was a V-neck that came half way down his chest. To top it all off, this guy was a yeller. Quarter squats with less than 300lbs and he was friggin' screaming like he had 1000lbs + on his back and his ass on the floor. He yelled all the bloody time. Yelled on the leg press. He yelled on the leg extension machine...are you kidding me? Who does that? I need to find a new gym. Bad.
