Another random thought I had recently, or more like a realization, is that, ever since I started taking GABA as a supplement for sleep, I dream much less, and I don't recall having had a lucid dream in months.

While I'm grateful to have found something that seems to help me sleep (and my ring data supports this), I honestly miss the active dream-life I used to have. It's like a not insignificant part of me is/has been missing; I feel incomplete.

On another topic, the neck/shoulder nerve impingement I've had since the heavy yoke session at strongman about 6 weeks ago has finally dissipated, and varies between negligible and non-existent, which is both great and unusual. I'm still having issues with my forearm tendons aching, but took the whole week off from additional grip work, and it seems to be improving. The hypertrophy plan seems to be working well too, in that I can see obvious muscle growth in my arms (forearms, biceps/triceps), and shoulders, and I still seem to be losing some body fat (as I simply don't/can't eat enough yet).

I want to go for a cycle ride today, but the weather isn't cooperating, so I'm a bit despondent. I'll have to think of something else to do.
