Notes:
Most of my time and effort is spent at the barbell rack. I think this is because it very encouraging when you are working with numbers.
Any time that you are trying to beat your personal records you need more time and effort.
I think I am spending enough time on nutrition, making sure I don’t eat too much junk food.
