Day 115 and 116 - Merry Christmas

210lb Squat clean on Christmas morning

Thank you to my friends for supporting me and lending me the bar and weights.

Merry Christmas to everyone.  I hope everyone has a happy and healthy day, and can enjoy the company of their loved ones.

Please take a moment after you read this to tell your family you love them.

Health Tip of the day - Sleep

We should average 7 hours of sleep over the course of the week.

"Research shows that most people require seven or eight hours of sleep to function optimally. Failing to get enough sleep night after night can compromise your health and may even shorten your life. From infancy to old age, the effects of inadequate sleep can profoundly affect memory, learning, creativity, productivity and emotional stability, as well as your physical health."

Try to plan ahead, look at what you have to do the next morning, and plan to be in bed with enough time to get a full 7 hours.  Make sure you turn off the TV or any electronic devices at least 30 minutes ahead of time, as they can interfere with your ability to fall asleep.
