I'm pleased, so far with alternating weeks of main lifts / accessory work. The last time I squatted and then tried to do split squats, I only could do body weight and even those were painful. This week, I actually did weight. 
I should have done more core, but I was already sore from the pullovers, so I cut it short. 
This night surely was a grind because my body has been feeling 100% depleted as of late. I've had some bloodwork done and a couple things were off, so hopefully with minor tweaking I'll start to get back to the old me. There will always be days when our energy wanes, but what I'm feeling right now is more than that. I ate two snacks during my session last night - it helps to give me a boost. I had a tangelo and a banana. It seemed to work and anything that works is OK in my book.
Not sure what I'll get to tonight. Right now, I feel like making dinner will be a win. Sheesh.
