Trying not to be a head case

About lifting as an older guy: every time I get 1-2 fewer reps than my “new normal”, I wonder if I am backsliding..or if this is just the usual variation that has always been there and is always there, for everyone.

rotator cuff, pull ups( 5 sets of 10, 1 of 5), bench: 10 x 135, 3 x 185, incline: 9 x 140..could not get 10, 5 x 50 military standing, 15 x 50 seated, 10 x 45 standing, 10 x 40 standing, rows: 3 sets of 10 x 50 single arm, 10 x 110 machine, plank, etc. 6 x 30, 6 x 50 goblet squats (trying to maintain leg integrity), 10 x 210 leg press, knee stretches (not quite as comfortable with the 4 lb. medicine ball..at least early, as I’d like)

Weight: 188; kind of bloated from last night..still.

Politics Elizabeth Warren is the plan lady. If we were choosing POTUS by search committee, I’d like that. But you have to get the voters to respond to you and that is a collections of slogans, stage presence and emotions. I might be selling the voters short, but I don’t think so.
