Nice day. Recovery (quality of it) is at about 80/100. Had 128 beans of coffee with some biscuits, almost didn't have any issues.

Overhead press

Warmup

60*15

80*10

100 - 3 sets of 3

103,1*3

Pushpress

60*2

80*2

100*1

120*1 poor lockout

120*1 better

130*1 also poor lockout

130*0 just push

Ran out of time at this point, but decided to go further

Held 180 on my shoulders for a few seconds

130*1 very nice and fast, easy push

I gotta do at least easy pushpresses every time I do overheads, gotta keep the movement in proper shape.

BW in clothing - 109,1 kgs.

On monday I decided to play around and improvise, made a nice little track with the random drum beats that I recorded during a session. Took me way too long, because I was writing down the tabs simultaneously. Did almost everything, except for bass, which I did yesterday. It was a lot of fun. Ended up with a nice instrumental track - decided to call it "Tunnel Metal" - because of the state of "tunnel vision" that I was in when I was jamming. (Not "real" tunnel vision ofc, just the state that I get in after a heavy enough session as well as overstimulating my CNS a bit). I should try to write my jams in a more conventional structure for metal. I'll check out some midi tabs and remind myself of how to do it next time.

Here it is, the track - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kwGpJ7V3VglX0-wfZj9t85xuwgqVhUfn/view?usp=sharing

 08.10.2023 Great day, feeling great. Woke up earlier than normal, worked more that usual. Feeling extra energy. The night was cold. I kept seeing dreams about (spoiler) The Emperor from BG3, hehehe 😉 Cause I watched one of his cutscenes, even though I ain't been playing yesterday. Yesterday, I was drained. I was drained on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday at night, to a varying degree. Today I feel much more fresh than I have been in a long time. Like, a part of my brain is extra creative. Also, I have been eating rather little - a couple eggs swallowed hastily, a few bananas, a few glasses of milk. Two mokas and one small conventional brew. I'm thinking of doing bench today, and PP + Squat tomorrow. Reasonable? Yes, on the surface it is reasonable. Light-medium-light bench, sets of 5, around 120. 4 sets of 5, maximum velocity, no pauses whatsoever. When you've got the same muscle strength composition as me it sort of feels easier to bench with a pause, and bumpi...

 10.04.2023 Nice day. Not too bad. Sleep - 4/10, nutrition - 6/10. Ran out of coffee, used some of the robusta from the stash. Now having one, fighting the desire to lie down, cause if I lie down I'm just not gonna be able to sleep. Jammed. I figured back in the day I made a lot of these micro-songs that are guitar and bass and midi drums. So, that's one of the things that fuels creativity. You have to save them and listen to them. Then you get something. My old headphones are buzzing a lot. Might be time to buy new ones soon. *** Today's workout is 4 sets of 5 with 77,5 percent. A sixth session in the program which I've been using in defferent variations for everything. So, 77,5% of 150 would be 116. But I'm not perfectly sure if I can do that well in my current shape. So, I might want to get up to 115 starting from a lighter weight. Maybe from 110. Now that I think about it, it's actually quite doable and it's very late. I don't want to hurry. And I do...

 14.09.2022 DL plan - 175 for 5, 200 for 5, 210 - 5*5, 200*1 clean single, maybe even overhand. Nice day. Slept very little. Ate a lot before I went to bed, so I had no appetite when I woke up. Tried to call and message some of my clients. Coordination issues. Sometimes people just can't pick a proper time. Understandable. I often think about how humanity evolved to proritise quick decisions over slow, but 100% sure ones. Better be two times faster and 80% sure than two times slower and 99% sure, amirite? He he. Having my second coffee. Or third? Not sure. Can't remember. Today I'm trying to overstuff the moka pot. The taste is awesome, but the brewing process feels dubious. Played guitar a bit. Practicing licks, playing quickly, playing up the neck. I don't gotta play, I gotta write and record lyrics and vocals. I already made a somewhat decent verse. And I have a rough idea for the chorus. I can't believe how much slower my process has become. What is it? Playing ...
