Our usual light bench day fell on Thanksgiving and Dave said it was optional this week.

I was traveling and went to the gym with my dad and started to do some tricep work and my elbows felt like garbage so I called it a day. Figured it was more important to let me elbows feel as fresh as possible than like hot garbage on a hot day on some hot asphalt. Look at me being a smarty.
