The last time I had an entry for a traditional workout was Sept. 28 2007.
Ironically, on that day I was coming off a 3 month layoff, or thereabouts.

The fire introduced a huge amount of chaos into my life, and so many areas of my life had suffered tremendous blows. I had not been able to eat well and my training was more or less non-existent. Had been for months; and judging by the numbers of that Sept 28 workout my body was clearly beginning to show the combined affect of several risk factors: stress, age, starvation, illness, poor training habits.
Yep. I was getting weaker, losing muscle density and my health was taking a beating. Little did I know then that things would get worse. Much worse.
