I'm not sure I have notes from today. I'm braindead.
I doubled down on the post workout cardio.
There is a Taco Cabana next to the gym, and my recovery period seems to get better when I stop by and get a cold ice tea (unsweetened) afterwards...

OK, I knew there was a benefit to drinking caffeine before the workout, but turns out it helps after the workout as well:
Glycogen, the muscle’s primary fuel source during exercise, is replenished more rapidly when athletes ingest both carbohydrate and caffeine following exhaustive exercise, new research from the online edition of the Journal of Applied Physiology shows
American Physiological Society (APS)
So I ate a peanut butter/banana sandwich with my tea today. Too many calories if I am trying to lose wight, but I am more concerned with building muscle right now.
And the sandwich wasn't fried either...sorry, Elvis!
