Took the day off today. Not worried because I had 3 in a row. Planning on a back workout tomorrow. May just do that early like I did many years ago. I used to be up early and in the gym deadlifting at 6:00 AM. That'll wake you up!

Delts and traps after work. Seated db presses, low pulley front raises, db side laterals...reverse overhead db laterals, upright rows, bb shrugs. I know many ppl badmouth using straps, but recently I've been using them for bb shrugs...and let me tell you it makes a big difference. You can use a lot more weight while keeping proper form. My traps actually burn after 4-5 sets using more weight with straps...something that rarely happens without them. My forearm strength is fine with all i do, so i dont feel like I'm cheating myself in any way...my traps are growing much faster than they ever did before, just from implementing straps. If u havent tried it, give it a shot!

Took the day off today and took a good walk in the sun and worked on my vitamin D

Matt, I'm right there with you on the straps with BB shrugs. I've used them for years and you are right, the weight you use is way up which means much bigger traps. You can really focus on pulling the weight vs. trying to hang on.
