    Haven't been on the erg since January. Possibly should continue to rest the back but got impatient and MRI next week. Felt ok during the pieces. Thought a pace of 1:55-2:00/500m would be realistic but was comfortable enough at 1:52.7. If nothing else, the gas tank is ok. Return to football probably helped.

    Haven't barbell benched much lately until a couple of recent sessions where I started doing what was in the start of a programme on the basis that 100kg was the max. Not entirely sure what I could actually max.
