Great day today!! Perfect mixture of physical work with easy work mixed in... made for a perfect flow. Made for a fun day tbh. If I could work this type of day everyday, I’d love my job lol... multiple job sites, next to the ocean all day.. I got to use my brain to troubleshoot and figure out solutions... my muscles to execute said solutions... a couple hours of physical, few hours of mental, few hours of mindless easiness.. then drive time... had a good day with the boss. He was cool today. I was cool today. It was a good day. Put in a long day and it didn’t even feel like it.
Made it to the gym right in time for gym rush hour... definitely not my favorite time to go... my elbow and that tendon issue really interfered with my routine... but despite that I smashed PR’s on the stand up dumbbell curls. I was super stoked... had I not had that pain, I would’ve murdered them even more... it effected more of my forearms and tricep movements though... hammer curls were brutal... I will have to buy a regular single strap and go that route... the one I bought cradles the elbow and straps across the forearm and bicep.. it was more of a nuisance than a help. So I removed it... so I shortened the routine down. Had no real choice tbh.. I have plenty of rest time coming. I just need to not injure myself in the time between now and then.
This new bloodwork requisition lab I used is quick AF on some items... it’s weird because they don’t wait to send the whole report... they just keep updating the account as it all comes in.. I got blood drawn Saturday morning. Results started coming in Sunday morning... just waiting for the main items so I can post... but interesting findings on my wellness panel...
For the first time in my life I’m low on iron and the results point me in an anemic direction... very odd for me. I am still curious as to the main results of T E and P but, just the blood health section alone points to some of the possible causes of me feeling so tired lately... but I need to see the other results before I can lock and load solid theories and pathways to rectify... regardless I’m adding iron supplements for the next couple weeks to get that back up. I guess I haven’t been off EQ this long before... that EQ, for me, these results wouldn’t even exist. My mch is low.. which won’t do me any good if my bloods not carrying enough oxygen to my muscles... everything ties into the iron though... but I need the final pieces to know that’s it 100% and not just part of it...
I’ll post full report once everything comes in though.
Daily gratitude item:
Grateful to get to be by the ocean today. I forgot how much it had always been my refuge... my escape... for so many years... today I remembered. For that I’m grateful.

I couldn’t fight the pain any longer... the arm/forearm strap I bought is not the right one... I need a strap strap. Not one that cradles my elbow and forearm at the same time... not making excuses, just trying to not injure myself and still be able to lift.
