too tired and sore from yesterday, I quit for the day. try again in a day or so.

[Keith Miller]

Great PR's!!   You might have gained because of the heavier workout, I've noticed that I tend to do that also.  Just be patient with your diet and you'll make weight.  Good luck!!

Thanks for the encouragement Kieth.
