I had a bit of a rough session today. Upper Hypertrophy so blood rushing all over the place, chest, back, shoulders, chest, back, shoulders, arms etc.
I've not done any long steady state cardio in quite a while now and am about a good stone heavier. I think I need to do work some longer CV in every so often as opposed to just H.I.I.T twice a week.
Also with my legs now coming up to the 26" mark running and anything that involves using my legs for long stints of time (that isnt H.I.I.T) is quite taxing!
But today I found I wasn't focusing on my breathing quite so much and a few times felt quite a bit feint. I can tell as things start to look bright, almost like a bright white transition and my vision focus goes.
Finished my session, soldiered on and then when in the changing rooms remembered why I felt quite so crap
I gave blood yesterday 
which might have had something to do with it.
I've given blood and trained a few hours later but I was a stone lighter and training just one area. Whilst I was able to train okay I found once I was fatigued failure came without warning.
This time though it had been a full 24 hours since donating and I was pushing it a bit. I had eaten and drank plenty too. Never the less a good session!
I had been doing B.O.R's wide a shoulder and a half width grip. I've changed this to shoulder width and can feel it much more on the inner of my back.

I know I said base of the spine but really it is about 4-5 vertebrae up. Weighted good mornings have helped considerably but the main problem with this is conventional situps Weighted crunch machines are ok though. I hit legs hard about three times a week and so I always include them with something else.
bloody hell what an xmas/new year presant
