12 Jan Paul Oneid – Sumo Deadlift and the MAN COLD

Due to personal and professional commitments, I have decided not to compete until Fall 2018.  I am currently rehabbing a torn quad I suffered in my most recent meet and getting back into the groove of training.  So far, I am having a lot of fun and feel like good things are coming.

Let me tell you right off the bat that the MAN COLD is real! I will also tell you that if you have a spouse who is tough as nails, she won’t put up with you being a baby and you’re on your own, fella lol.  I woke up Monday with a really bad head cold.  It’s slowly improved and I have continued to train during it.  I actually find training when I am sick helps me get over it quicker, especially if I keep the weights light and force myself to breathe through it.  If it’s heavy, I stay away for fear of injury due to dehydration.  It’s not pleasant during, but I always feel better afterwards.

First day trying out reps with sumo.  I controlled the eccentric to try and find the “middle” and held tension at the bottom.  Pretty darn centre if you ask me!  These will be a work in progress, but I am happy with the work I did.  Keeping it light until I am comfortable.  Stiff Leg deficits are doing well.  I got pretty winded from the man cold, but everything is moving well.  I did take significantly longer on this day because of the cold, but I got the work done and waking up this morning I think I may done with it.
