I went to the doc today and blood pressure looked good. I haven’t lifted a weight in a month but did cardio every night.Riding that airdyne every night while watching the Jeffersons.That George is one funny little bastard but I am ready to get back in the gym.Longest I have ever gone without lifting but blood pressure looks good so fuck it. I will be hitting it tomorrow while still continuing cardio as best I can.Several of you sent your best wishes and thank you to all of you I truly appreciate it.

Awesome - if I would you I would google about breathing techniques to reduce the BP spike while lifting.  Read an article on it a few years' back, but don't have a link.  I'm sure there's plenty out there.

Sometimes the program I follow centers on doing intense bursts of activity, followed by 90/90 breathing techniques to lower the heart rate more rapidly so you can go again.  It might also be called "box breathing".......but I remember seeing techniques to employ DURING the lift as opposed to after.

Went to BJJ and did randori. 

Getting better, slowly - but getting better at this.

As long as you don't get in a fight with a Bruce Lee trained individual you will be ok.

Awful workout

Knees very stiff / no pain though they just wouldn't warm up

At least I did try & did some work

around 11sets of Leg extensions superset with back squats

sets of calves superset with leg curls - had enough of poor leg work
and Did 8or9 sets of BB curls super set with long cable over head tri extensions
and Neck work.

Better workout next time.
