I apologize for my lack of logging in the past couple of weeks. With the semester ending, traveling home to see my family, and then starting my law fellowship at a Law Firm-- keeping up with my log fell by the wayside.

That being said, I'm now settled into my Firm job, and have got a schedule/routine of sorts (Finally!). The first week was rough, mainly because I get really anxious/stressed out when I don't have a plan. I didn't know what my meal schedule would be like, what the commute would be like, when I was gonna be able to train, how much food I needed to bring for the day, etc.

However, with the first week in the books-- I've gotten the "lay of the land" and feel much better having my plan/s in place!

You'll notice these most recent training sessions are a bit shorter than usual-- that's because I'm training much later than usual now and the gym closed before I could get my 3rd movement in. In these scenario's, I will just move those supplemental movements to a 5th day (I normally train 4). Hopefully this won't have to happen too often though, because I think I found a more efficient way to commute from work to the gym.
