Cycle 4 – 3s Week: Overhead Press: 12/26/14

Good amount of sleep and average feeling as I start the day (5/10).
Felt a little better on the drive to gym as my Pre started kicking in (6/10).
Energy level was somewhat sustained except for a short energy burst while doing the work sets of the main lift.

Great session overall.
