I've done a few workouts mostly kettle bells and one zercher deadlift. I've had a bit of a mind fuck and fell into old patterns.
I have lost a disturbing amount of strength, unsurprisingly. This is a renewal of the plan to get in the gym and just have some fun for a few weeks before returning to 5/3/1.

Blargh
This has got to be the longest break I've taken from training in a long long time. This was a workout just to knock the rust off.
Definitely stiff and immobile so just played it by ear.
Power snatch up to 165
Surprisingly not that shitty...
Power clean and press up to 175, again not that shitty.
Power clean up to 205, really really shitty. I think I'm combining my old form with the deadlift form I was being taught at DB..and it's clearly not working so well.
Squats up to 265, these felt awful. Right knee was tweaking in a way I haven't felt before.
Finished up with some back extensions and pull ups.
In general feeling pretty weak and uncoordinated which is no doubt a product of being sedentary for so damn long. I think I'll take a couple weeks and just do whatever I want in the gym and then jump back in to where I was on 5/3/1.
