New low WoohooCheck-In Update: Active Recovery & Cardio Engine Prep

The Status Report
The Scale:
109.60 kg (A new low! Fasted weight from yesterday)
The Feeling:
Listening to the body and prioritizing recovery ahead of the shift rotation.
Current Status:
Focus on full-body mobility and high-volume engine work.
Training Recap: Wednesday & Thursday (Yesterday & Today)
Wednesday: Active Recovery & Mobility
Warm-Up & Movement:
Spent 2-3 hours walking while out shopping.
Full Body Stretching:
Dedicated session to keep the joints loose and manage the niggle.
Main Focus: Cardio
Time: 30:42
Calories Burned: 321 kcal
Distance: 9.31
Note:
Kept it short on the bike since the steps were already high from the shops.
Thursday: Pre-Night Shift Engine Work
Mobility:
Another full-body stretching session to prime the system.
Main Focus: Cardio
Time: 70:55
Calories Burned: 800 kcal
Distance: 23.19
Intensity:
Smashed out a big session to build momentum before heading into the first night shift.
Current Protocol & Stack
The Peptides:
+HGH (2 IU)
+Retatrutide (4mg)
+GHK-Cu (2mg)
+BPC-157/TB-500 (1mg)
+Tesofensine
The Essentials:
Multi+, Vitamin C, Probiotics, Fish Oil, Collagen, Psyllium Husk, Magnesium, and Creatine.
Hydration & Momentum
Keeping the water and electrolytes high to support recovery after these long bike sessions. Everything is moving in the right direction.
Closing Thoughts
Getting that 70-minute engine work done today was about more than just the calories; it was about setting the tone before starting the night shift rotation.
Itβs easy to let the schedule be an excuse, but smashing out the cardio and staying on top of the stretching keeps me ahead of the game.
The sore bum and numb feet from the bike seat are just part of the price. This week has been a lesson in balance, from a massive 3-hour shopping trek to a full 800-calorie blast today, Iβm learning when to push and when to pivot.
Iβm letting the recovery protocols do their work while I provide the movement.

Yes definitely. My dream is to spend my retirement with a nice woman, maybe 10 or 15 years younger than me, who has good energy. And someone who my daughter likesI totally get that!It makes such a huge difference when you're with someone who matches your energy and understands the grind.
The gym lifestyle definitely isn't for everyone, but itβs so much more rewarding when your partner is right there with you, whether itβs hitting the gym
or just getting outside for a walk.
Having that shared drive is a total game changer!![]()
Thanks for the support!New low Woohoo. Your fitness levels are increasing all the time and your constant commitment is just awesome. Can't say it enough, love what your doing, killing it sister

EVO family love sister alwaysThanks brother!Appreciate the kind words
EvoEVO family love sister always![]()
Maybe you can find me a nice girl over where you're at and I can get my bags packed and head your way to your city. She has to be into the gym.That sounds like a beautiful dream, Ulter. Having that shared energy and the seal of approval from your daughter makes all the difference.
Honestly, knowing exactly what you want in a life partner can be half the battle, so itβs amazing that youβve already got that sorted! Someone who matches your vibe is definitely out there, you deserve that kind of partnership.![]()
I love your mindset and and how focused it is on your goals. 80 min on a bike is no joke and requires some serious dedication. Keep pushing sister. Love the leggings. Especially love that they are red and not just blackCheck-In Update: Post-Night Shift Engine Work & Mobility

The Status Report
The Scale:
Last weight 109.60 kg (Didn't get the weight today)
The Feeling:
Pushing through the post-shift fatigue and keeping the consistency high.
Current Status:
Dedicated active recovery and high-volume cardio block.
Training Recap: Saturday Session
Warm-Up & Mobility
Full body stretching session to undo the stiffness of the night shift rotation. Ran through the standard routine:
+High front kicks
+Monkeys / Monkey swings & dead hangs
+Standing back lunges / Reverse lunges
+Bodyweight calf raises
+Leg swings
+Cat-cow stretches
+Cobra stretch
+Light band pull-aparts & shoulder rolls
Main Focus: Cardio
Time: 80:17
Calories Burned: 885 kcal
Distance: 25.67
Intensity:
Level 6 steady-state. Woke up from post-shift sleep and absolutely smashed out a massive session to clear out the fatigue.
Current Protocol & Stack
The Peptides:
+HGH (2 IU)
+Retatrutide (4mg)
+GHK-Cu (2mg)
+Tesofensine
Note:
BPC-157/TB-500 course is now complete. Cycling off for a planned rest period to let the system reset.
The Essentials:
Multi+, Vitamin C, Probiotics, Fish Oil, Collagen, Psyllium Husk, Magnesium, and Creatine.
Hydration & Momentum
Keeping the water and electrolytes high to support recovery after these long bike sessions. Everything is moving in the right direction.
Closing Thoughts
Finishing up a 2/2 night shift block can easily throw a wrench in the routine, but waking up and heading straight to the gym to lock in an 80-minute bike ride proves the mindset is exactly where it needs to be.
Excluding the inevitable sore bum and numb feet from spending that long on the seat, smashing out 885 calories after working all night is a massive win. Itβs about maintaining balance
, respecting the body's need for mobility, and keeping the metabolic engine firing.
The BPC course is officially wrapped up now, so it's time for a proper cycle off period to let the system rest while I keep handling the daily work.
Life Note; Went shopping at a second hand shop today, and found some gymshark leggings!They're super comfy!

Thanks Lev! Haha yes, I love having a Monster on my night shifts.. I find that it really helps with that 2am-4am brain fog. I also make sure I'm keeping up with my water and hydration on those night shifts as welllooking good sisteri see monster there its nice
keep training hard and cardio hard, love your meals and stay strong! @MrsOhdamnsBOSS
Wow sister!!! I just got all caught up on your log and I can honestly say it was more of a pleasure reading your log than it woulda been opening a book I knew I loved. This is really one of the best most exciting and entertaining logs on EVO. And your food pics are the most colourful and detailed out there. I really love how much you discuss how working out as a couple is really good for both mental health and the relationship. It truly is a form of bonding that not many couples get to enjoy.Check-In Update: Post-Night Shift Engine Work & Mobility

This was super cute!The "Gym Gremlin" Saga
YES! ExactlyStop letting a piece of paper or a "smart" scale dictate your progress.
Bang on, and I see the weight loss and your figure changing too.Use the mirror, use your clothes, and use your strength as your compass.![]()
Any final thoughts did anything stand out that you noticed about the BPC?The BPC course is officially wrapped up now, so it's time for a proper cycle off period to let the system rest while I keep handling the daily work.
I bought 12 red roses and waited by the lake for her to show up. 2 hours went by and nothing. then i text her to ask her if she was running late and she text back 'sorry my brother got into a car accident, i can't make it maybe another time'That is so sweet, Ulter! I would love to help you find your special person, but sadly the only ladies I know around here are already spoken for haha
.
But I'm sure you'll find your other half in your city soon enough, someone who matches that vibe perfectly is definitely out there.
Speaking of which, how did that second date go?![]()
awesome sisterThanks Lev! Haha yes, I love having a Monster on my night shifts.. I find that it really helps with that 2am-4am brain fog. I also make sure I'm keeping up with my water and hydration on those night shifts as well. I'm definitely trying to keep pushing the cardio!

@Ulter you really are a romantic deep insideI bought 12 red roses and waited by the lake for her to show up. 2 hours went by and nothing. then i text her to ask her if she was running late and she text back 'sorry my brother got into a car accident, i can't make it maybe another time'
i threw the roses in the lake and walked home with my head down
What a reply wow! You put so much effort into your log and it translates to your effort in the gym and vice versa. Amazing energy and enthusiasm this will take you a long way to achieve your goals and way way further too!Wow, thank you so much!Your comment put the biggest smile on my face. I try to keep the log as real, detailed, and visually colorful as possible, so hearing that it stands out to you means the world. I love putting these updates together, and knowing the food pics and daily grinds are hitting the mark makes it even more fun to post.
You are spot on about training as a couple, too. It really is the ultimate bonding experience, even when we're pushing each other through brutal sets or trying to agree on a movement when both of us are convinced we have the "right way" to do the exercise!I wouldn't trade that team dynamic for anything.
And bang on regarding the scale! It definitely took some time to get there, but refusing to let a smart scale.. or any scale for that matter... dictate my mood or my progress has been incredibly freeing.The mirror, the clothes, and the weight on the bar don't lie. The scale is just one tiny data point, and I'm absolutely loving the shift toward focusing on pure performance and body composition instead.
As for the BPC, the absolute standout for me was how much it helped with overall joint resilience and recovery speed.
Niggles that usually stick around just completely cleared up, which allowed me to keep the training volume high without paying for it later. It definitely did its job, and wrapping it up now for a proper rest period feels like the perfect transition to let the system reset while I keep holding down the daily work.
Truly appreciate the massive support and for riding along with the journey!![]()
Haha and the little gym spats couples have about how to do proper form. AdorableI wouldn't trade that team dynamic for anything.
I am so incredibly sorry you had to go through something like that.I bought 12 red roses and waited by the lake for her to show up. 2 hours went by and nothing. then i text her to ask her if she was running late and she text back 'sorry my brother got into a car accident, i can't make it maybe another time'
i threw the roses in the lake and walked home with my head down
And here I thought @Ulter was joking. If this is a real story then the lake deserved the roses more than her anyway. @Ulter you might have saved yourself a lot of time, money, and half your pension anyway so win-win. And you can train for an extra 2 hours now to make those 2 hours back!I am so incredibly sorry you had to go through something like that.
It is a real shame that she couldn't do the decent thing and just let you know beforehand if she wasn't interested or couldn't make it.
Leaving you waiting by the lake for two hours is just completely disrespectful of your time and your effort.
It might not feel like it at the time, but when people show you who they are, treat it as a blessing.
You don't need to pour your energy into someone or something that's not going to give it back. You deserve someone who matches your energy, respects you, and is excited to show up for you.
Keep your head up. The right person won't leave you waiting.![]()

The Status Report
The Scale: 112.05 kg (Gym scale weight )
The Feeling: Playing it smart, testing the waters, and prioritizing joint integrity.
Current Status: Testing shoulder capacity with a strategic 2-day split layout.
Training Recap: Sunday & Monday (Split Push Block)
Note: Split the push session over two days to test out the shoulders without overloading the joint capsule all at once. Shoulders and triceps on Sunday, followed by chest on Monday.
1. The Complete Chest Block (Monday)
Flat Bench Press: Warm-up sets then 3 sets x 10 @ 40kg
Standing Cable Pec Flyes: 3 sets x 10 @ 25kg (Focusing on a deep stretch and a hard squeeze)
2. The Shoulder Superset Block (Sunday)
Performed as a Giant Superset: Move straight from A to B to C before resting. 4 Sets Total.
Exercise A: Arnold Shoulder Press 4 sets x 6 @ 10kg
Exercise B: Dumbbell Lateral Holds 4 sets x to Failure
Exercise C: Rear Delt Cable Flyes 4 sets x to Failure
3. The Tricep Superset Block (Sunday)
Performed as a Giant Superset: Move straight from A to B to C before resting. 4 Sets Total.
Exercise A: Dumbbell Skull Crushers 4 sets x to Failure @ 7kg
Exercise B: Overhead Cable Extensions 4 sets x to Failure @ 25kg
Exercise C: Straight Arm Pushdowns 4 sets x to Failure @ Normal Weight
Cardio Engine Work
Sunday Session:
Time: 60:38
Calories Burned: 701 kcal
Distance: 20.32
Intensity: Level 6 steady-state
Monday Session (Split Engine Work):
Block 1: 20:03 | 235 kcal | 6.82 distance | Level 6
Block 2: 21:34 | 256 kcal | 7.41 distance | Level 6

Hydration & Momentum
Keeping the water and electrolytes high to support recovery after these long bike sessions. Everything is moving in the right direction.
Closing Thoughts
Splitting this Push block over Sunday and Monday was 100% the right executive decision. When you're managing a niggle, the ego has to sit on the sidelines. Breaking up the volume allowed me to test the shoulder's tolerance with the Arnold presses and giant sets yesterday, and then come back fresh to handle the benching today without overloading the tissue.
Everything felt stable, controlled, and solid. Combined with over 100 minutes of total bike work across both days, the engine is priming nicely while the BPC-off reset begins. Gathering data, listening to the body, and keeping the momentum rolling.

I met one woman in my life who was like that and she left.
Maybe she didn't like the way I was dressed and then didn't show up. Or maybe I got the wrong types of flowers that she didn't like. I'm not really sure at this point.I am so incredibly sorry you had to go through something like that.
It is a real shame that she couldn't do the decent thing and just let you know beforehand if she wasn't interested or couldn't make it.
Leaving you waiting by the lake for two hours is just completely disrespectful of your time and your effort.
It might not feel like it at the time, but when people show you who they are, treat it as a blessing.
You don't need to pour your energy into someone or something that's not going to give it back. You deserve someone who matches your energy, respects you, and is excited to show up for you.
Keep your head up. The right person won't leave you waiting.![]()
Thanks rizzlekdizzle! I appreciate that! I'll definitely give it a goI used to not track - but that app myfitnesspal is easy enough to use
That is incredibly tough, Ulter. HonestlyMaybe she didn't like the way I was dressed and then didn't show up. Or maybe I got the wrong types of flowers that she didn't like. I'm not really sure at this point.

Wanted to drop a quick update to show off something killer that just arrived.
I hit up the crew at @PepBox to bring my vision to life, and they were absolute gold to deal with.
The whole process was seamless and insanely quick. And honestly..she is sexy as fuck!
I am so excited to start using it and finally keep everything perfectly organized.![]()
you just need an app sister myfitnesspal easy to useThanks Lev! I appreciate the adviceI'll definitely look into it!
I ended up asking out a chick at the gym and she turned me down. she said I was too muscular for what she likes lol. i can't winThat is incredibly tough, Ulter. Honestly, it will drive you mad trying to explain the reason behind why she chose to do what she did and the way she did it. People's reasons for ghosting usually have everything to do with them and nothing to do with you, so try your absolute best to just let it go.
Don't let it knock your confidence! Just keep pushing forward, knowing that your special lady is out there waiting for you!

Cardio Engine Work
Yesterday's Bike Session:
Time: 41:30
Calories Burned: 478 kcal
Distance: 13.87

Keeping the water and electrolytes high to support recovery after these long bike sessions. Everything is moving in the right direction."
Closing Thoughts
Taking the time to run through a proper dynamic prep with the high kicks, lunges, and depth checks made a massive difference before touching the working sets.
Sticking with 32kg for the leg curls and single leg presses lets me focus completely on the mind-muscle connection, slow negatives, and getting that pristine depth.
I've noticed that the weight number will bounce depending on almost everythingJust keeping the momentum high, ticking the boxes.

The Status Report
The Scale: 108.45 kg (Gym scale weightNEW LOW!)
The Feeling: Keeping it light, smart, and fully focused on priming the system before heading into the first block of 4/4 night shifts tonight.
Current Status: Strategic deload/lighter volume day to manage overall systemic fatigue.
The Strategy & Listening to the Body
Heading into my first block of four straight night shifts tonight, I wanted to treat today as a lighter session. The goal wasn't to push for heavy numbers, but rather to keep the body moving, pick up a solid pump, and smash out a great cardio session without digging myself into a deep recovery hole before work.
Lately, Iβve also been noticing that my knees have been giving me some trouble. Thatβs really the main reason Iβve been taking things a bit easier on the lower half recently. My joints are just adjusting to not having that healing blend in the system to protect them and carry the load with recovery, so I'm playing it smart and giving my knees the time they need to adapt.
Smashed out a massive 60-minute bike ride today. Keeping the intensity at a steady Level 6 is perfect right now, it flushes out any lingering tightness and builds that deep aerobic stamina I need to stay sharp through these long night shifts on my feet, without leaving my legs totally wiped out.
For the weights, keeping the upper body movements lighter was all about pure mind-muscle connection, high-quality blood flow, and joint relief. Pushing a smooth 25kg on the chest press and pulling 66kg on the face pulls let me focus entirely on a deep squeeze and pristine form, giving the nervous system a break while still keeping the engine primed.
Training Recap: Today (Light Push/Pull Tension & Calf Maintenance)
The Main Working Sets

Closing Thoughts
Today was all about playing the long game. With a heavy rotation of four straight night shifts kicking off tonight, the ego stayed at the door.
I intentionally kept the weights on the lighter side to pick up a solid pump without digging a deep recovery hole, but still went hard on the cardio to lock in another massive 60-minute bike ride.
Seeing 108.45 kg on the scale is a brand new low, which is huge! I know the number will bounce depending on almost everything anyway
, so I'm not stressing the daily fluctuations, but hitting a new low right before a shift block is a great milestone.
Time to get some solid food in, rest up, and clock into work ready to roll.

Great update! Your traps and delts are looking pumped and ripped I love it.
Long game is the way to play this for sure. Congrats on the new low, 108kg is amazing progress!
Great explanation of this!
What dose and how are you liking this? This one is just starting to get discussed a bit more.
ThanksLook at you go, new low woohoo. Those traps would put @Ohdamn on notice BOSS.
You are really doing a fantastic job at balancing everything. Your body awareness is exceptional. First shoulder, now knees but you keep training whilst making sure things don't get worse.
Pretty awesome sister![]()
Thanks Lev, appreciate your supportive words!love the meals sisterthank you for sharing @MrsOhdamnsBOSS going down in weight perfect!
This is a great review and it's sounding like Teso might be a good option out there for shift workers. I did 20 years of shift work and I became impervious to caffeine and still am LOL.Thanks, HarleyGuy!I appreciate the support. Focusing on that mind-muscle connection and letting the nervous system recover when needed has been a game-changer, especially with the night shift rotation. Seeing 108kg on the scale definitely felt incredible, the long game is paying off!
As for the Tesofensine, I'm running 500mcg daily, first thing in the morning.
The main difference I've noticed with it is definitely the energy and focus. Because it acts as a triple reuptake inhibitor (dopamine, serotonin, and noradrenaline), you get this really clean boost in mental clarity.
It doesn't give me that jittery, anxious energy that standard stimulants do, which is a massive plus for keeping my head straight and my sleep schedule intact for night shifts.
Combined with the rest of the protocol, it's doing a great job of keeping the engine primed and focus sharp without leaving me feeling totally depleted.![]()
EVO family love your way sisterThanks Lev, appreciate your supportive words!![]()
Thank you so much!@MrsOhdamnsBOSS holy shit, what an amazing transformation!! You have done so well, so much hard work both in the gym at out.
You should be so proud of yourself for your brilliant accomplishments so far and your still getting up and doing it everyday, what an inspiration.
I thought the 82kg (180 pounds) i lost was heaps, I know the hard work you have put in so far and continue to do to maintain and keep losing, you will and should inspire lots more people.
You are setting a great example for everyone in your life or reads about you on forums like this or any other platform.
Keep up the amazing work!!!!!
HahaThis is a great review and it's sounding like Teso might be a good option out there for shift workers. I did 20 years of shift work and I became impervious to caffeine and still am LOL.

very happy to help sisterThanks brother!![]()
For sure. Just have to keep doing the boring things on repeatThanks so much, @Stans!I really appreciate the encouragement. You're spot on, patience and consistency are definitely the name of the game, especially when playing the long game with weight loss.
Trusting the process is tough some days, but seeing the results start to show makes the daily grind worth it.
Hearing that my log helps keep you motivated means a lot to me and gives me an extra push to keep grinding.

The Scale: 108.45 kg (Gym scale weightNEW LOW!)
Total Journey Milestone: Over 91.5kg melted off away from the 200kg+ starting point!
Current Status: Night 4 of 4 (Final Stretch)
Shift Report: Roster Protocol & Physical Check-In
The last few days have been a massive test of resilience, balancing a demanding night shift rotation with real-life schedules. Here is the breakdown of how the body and mind have held up under the pump:
Shift 2/4 (Friday Night into Saturday Morning):
The Sleep Deficit:
Headed into this shift on only 6 hours of sleep instead of my usual 8. Definitely landed squarely in the "it's not going to be fun, but I'll get it done"zone.
0300 Hours:
Just wrapped up rounds that felt absolutely never-ending. The knees were pretty sore, and my left foot was giving me some random grief haha. Physically feeling the volume of the shift, but mentally? Brain felt great, definitely firing on all cylinders.
0400 Hours:
Mentally wired and running completely smooth. Zero brain fog.
0620 Hours:
A little over half an hour left on the clock. The brain started meeting with the knees and body, definitely tired, but just the normal, expected exhaustion after a hard night's graft. Pushed through.
The Saturday Intermission & Schedule Chaos:
The Recovery:
Managed about 6 hours of broken sleep, waking up at 1400.
Protocol Execution:
As soon as my eyes opened, it was straight into execution mode, sorted my food and protocol pins. Appetite wasn't 100%, so I did my best to eat what I could manage and saved the rest to finish later, then relaxed for a bit.
The Curveball:
Routine went a bit off the rails today. Had a family birthday party at 1700, which completely wiped out my usual "second sleep" window. No pre-shift nap today!
Shift 3/4 (Saturday Night into Sunday Morning):
0430 Hours:
Damn, I was feeling it. Interestingly, my knees were completely fine and the brain was still sharp, but my eyes were absolutely stinging, the ultimate telltale sign of deep fatigue.
The 0400 Wall:
Hit that classic, bittersweet milestone. On one hand, the finish line for night 3/4 is in sight. On the other hand, it's the exact window where the brain starts fighting you for sleep.
The Stimulant Dilemma:
Because I don't drink coffee, even a standard cuppa tea is out of the question this late in the shift. No point pouring fuel on the fire and amplifying the shitty symptoms when I need to sleep in a few hours anyway.
Sunday Intermission & Catching Up:
1630 Hours:
About to head to bed to get an extra 2 hours of sleep. This makes today the first day during this entire work block that I've managed to get more than 6 hours of total sleep before a shift.
Sunday Physical Check-In:
Feeling a little run down, but still pretty good overall. Zero pain or issues with my knees or shoulder. Honestly, I am just absolutely itching to get back into the gym, can't wait to smash out another workout!
Post-Nap Update:
Just woke up from that second block of sleep. Ended up sleeping for 3 hours instead of 2, and the body definitely felt like it needed that extra rest. Just eating my fruits for the day and getting ready to head out and smash this final 4/4 shift!

Closing Thoughts
Balancing the roster with family commitments and birthdays means the schedule gets chaotic, but the discipline stays exactly the same. Even with stinging eyes and deep fatigue hitting hard, the mind stays focused, the joints are feeling good, and the plan is being executed. One more night shift left to lock away, and then it's finally time to get back to the weights.

Shift Report: Roster Protocol & Physical Check-In
The last few days have been a massive test of resilience, balancing a demanding night shift rotation with real-life schedules. Here is the breakdown of how the body and mind have held up under the pump:
Shift 2/4 (Friday Night into Saturday Morning):
The Sleep Deficit:
Headed into this shift on only 6 hours of sleep instead of my usual 8. Definitely landed squarely in the "it's not going to be fun, but I'll get it done"zone.
0300 Hours:
Just wrapped up rounds that felt absolutely never-ending. The knees were pretty sore, and my left foot was giving me some random grief haha. Physically feeling the volume of the shift, but mentally? Brain felt great, definitely firing on all cylinders.
0400 Hours:
Mentally wired and running completely smooth. Zero brain fog.
0620 Hours:
A little over half an hour left on the clock. The brain started meeting with the knees and body, definitely tired, but just the normal, expected exhaustion after a hard night's graft. Pushed through.
The Saturday Intermission & Schedule Chaos:
The Recovery:
Managed about 6 hours of broken sleep, waking up at 1400.
Protocol Execution:
As soon as my eyes opened, it was straight into execution mode, sorted my food and protocol pins. Appetite wasn't 100%, so I did my best to eat what I could manage and saved the rest to finish later, then relaxed for a bit.
The Curveball:
Routine went a bit off the rails today. Had a family birthday party at 1700, which completely wiped out my usual "second sleep" window. No pre-shift nap today!
Shift 3/4 (Saturday Night into Sunday Morning):
0430 Hours:
Damn, I was feeling it. Interestingly, my knees were completely fine and the brain was still sharp, but my eyes were absolutely stinging, the ultimate telltale sign of deep fatigue.
The 0400 Wall:
Hit that classic, bittersweet milestone. On one hand, the finish line for night 3/4 is in sight. On the other hand, it's the exact window where the brain starts fighting you for sleep.
The Stimulant Dilemma:
Because I don't drink coffee, even a standard cuppa tea is out of the question this late in the shift. No point pouring fuel on the fire and amplifying the shitty symptoms when I need to sleep in a few hours anyway.
Sunday Intermission & Catching Up:
1630 Hours:
About to head to bed to get an extra 2 hours of sleep. This makes today the first day during this entire work block that I've managed to get more than 6 hours of total sleep before a shift.
Sunday Physical Check-In:
Feeling a little run down, but still pretty good overall. Zero pain or issues with my knees or shoulder. Honestly, I am just absolutely itching to get back into the gym, can't wait to smash out another workout!
Post-Nap Update:

Thanks so much, Kopite!That was a really great log update BOSS. It's been over 25 years since I did shift work but your write up brought it all back.
Balancing shift work and a full program of lifting and eating changes is extremely hard and you are doing it so very well.
Keep pushing sister you got this. New low is awesome, 100 is in sight now![]()
Definitely Lev!meals look amazing as always sisterlove this lets get to macro tracking

Second bulk of sleep sounds really nice. Those naps are really powerful. @MrsOhdamnsBOSS I've read that even a two-hour nap can really go a long way to helping you recover faster.Check-In Update: Shift Report & Protocol Execution

you are doing great and inspiring many!Thank you, Steve!I really appreciate the encouragement and support.
Finding that perfect sweet spot between a hectic roster, keeping family life humming along, and hitting the gym with intent is definitely an art form.
It takes a village, and a lot of prep.. but having @Ohdamn by my side as my rock and training partner makes balancing it all so much easier.
Hearing that the closing thoughts resonated with you means a lot!![]()
@MrsOhdamnsBOSS terrific work. I like how you include the hydration, especially as we get into the summer here in North America. It's very important for people to properly hydrate. You can get heat exhaustion very easily working out in the sun.Check-In Update: Shift Report & Protocol Execution
