Habit Forming

     Day 15 of 21. Tonight saw some deadlifts happening for the first time in a very long time. Too long. I looked back quickly in my blog to February and I didn't see any, so at least 8 months has passed. Looking back I also saw a lot of haphazardness in those 8 months. I didn't see any real programming, no real direction; so that's an issue. Even with all that chaos I saw a determination and tenacity that will serve me well in the long run. I hope those are traits that I pass on to Emily.
     Again, I'm not going for any record breaking sets right now. I just want to get in the habit of moving every day. I believe I'm on the right track. It seems like less of a mental tug of war with myself before each session. I'm encouraged by that at least. I'm glad that I switched from kettlebells to the barbell. I still do feel almost like I failed my own challenge, but I suppose I really haven't. I'll throw the kettlebells back in here and there, they're certainly not gone for good!
     Here's tonight's work:
DEADLIFTS:
95lb x10
115lb x10
135lb x10
BARBELL GOOD MORNINGS:
45lb x10
65lb x10
85lb x10
95lb x10
REVERSE DB FLYS:
(15lb x10) 3x
H.K.R. / PLATE PULLOVERS:
(H.K.R. x10 / 35lb x10) 2x
••••••••••
And that was it. It was enough, for now. 6 more days of getting habits to set in and then we kick it up a bit with the intensity. 
I don't have any recipes tonight. I'm doing some meal prepping tomorrow, or at least that's he plan anyhow. I'll share some of what I accomplished. Peace out.
