I've been having trouble bracing my abs lately. My upper back rounds forward a bit, and my insides feel like they're being crushed. It's hard to explain. Anyway, it's a new development and it worries me. I'm hoping that just adding a bit of ab work will take care of the problem.
The sumo deadlifts were a last minute decision. They felt good, in a painful kind of way. The first rep is the hardest, I struggle with it a lot even with a light weight. After I get the first rep, I can bang out more without much of a problem. Weird.
Almost forgot. I went to get some blood taken this morning for some tests. Which means I had to fast for 12 hours. Most of it was while I was sleeping, but still. It can't be good to start fasting only a few hours after a deadlift session lol. Oh well.
