  • Just One of Those Days

    Last night, I was looking forward to going to the gym.
    This morning, my first thought was, “Good—let’s go.”

    I got there, asked ChatGPT for a 45-minute rowing session, and it delivered.
    I did it.
    Then some sled push/pulls.
    Then some Farmer’s Carries.

    It was a great session—strong, powerful, controlled—and I really enjoyed it.
    But there was no buzz. No post-workout euphoria.

    Was it because today was hot and humid?
    Maybe.
    Was it because I’m a human being and some days just feel flat?
    Probably.

    So I went home, took a shower, had a recovery drink, and started typing these words.
    No self-criticism. No self-sabotage. Just a quiet realisation:

    There will be days like this.

    And I’m okay with that.

    This is the Sub-7 Experiment.
