New Training Cycle

Feeling: like I've never lifted weights before >_<

It's tough, but I know this is just part of the process transitioning out of a deload phase, and back into high volume/frequency training. Everything feels heavy, my lifts don't feel like "my lifting", and nothing feels smooth. This is where the TRUST piece is huge-- trust my coaches, trust myself, and trust the process.
