This post is extremely delayed because I didn't have much time to blog last week, also everything was compounded by the fact that last Friday's (30th of Dec) workout did a number on my legs. Evidently I busted/shredded my calves and I spent the greater part of the last week hobbling around and being sore. My right leg is
still swollen. I can't even describe how bad and painful this was and the odd thing is I did it with almost no weight on those calf press and calf raise exercises. Freaking madness.
Anyway, this update covers my stats from
last week (1/2/17 - 1/6/17). I still worked out every day (I refuse to quit) and it was actually a good move. I think it helped me muscles recover to give them something to do.

Thankfully my legs are a lot better right now, even if it took the better part of a week to get there. The only thing that seems to still be bothering me is my right wrist is a little tender. I think this is actually not gym related and more related to the fact that I did an obscene amount of gaming these last two weeks of Christmas break...
Anyway, I'll be spending more time working for the next couple of weeks, so less time for video games in general but still making time for the gym.
