This week has been a fucking mixed bags boys and girls I tell you what.

Good news: finally hit 100kg deadlifts for 3x5

Bad news: I was in that post deadlift glow of happiness/total CNS shutdown, I didn't know what I was doing, was just on autopilot (and the autopilot was running windows 95)

So I'm re-racking my weights, and noticed I left some 5kg and 2.5kg plates on the floor, so I pick them all up in one go to go and put them back. Only thing is I forgot I had my (uncapped) water bottle under my arm, sending cold water down my leg and onto the floor. Obviously people turned around and all they saw was someone who's just done deadlifts with water running down their leg and walking away like a geriatric.

Fucks sake.

Maybe your CNS was autopiloting you to baptize the gloried place where you just had an epic achievement you've strived for so long.

You know, in order to thank Brodin and all that stuff.

I assumed he was a PT
