Nice day. Only a moderate amount of darkness crawling through my shriveled mind. Overall, a joyous day. Late night training & drums session. Looking at funny april 1st on the internet. EMC Productions baited his viewers with a thumbnails of fnially making a hihats out of gongs - silly idea, isn't it? It'd made more sense to just cut two large sheets of any metal into hihats rather than to use actual gongs. Ans then you can call it a "gong hihat". Maybe one day I'll do the same - just use random sheet metal as cymbals. They're not going to sound conventional, that's for sure. Ha ha. Also AI Dungeon made a funny thing - they added an "emoji interpretation" of text. Link here

Deadlift

70*4

120*4

160*4

200*4 - one nice overhand rep - PR since my finger injury :D The rest were mixed grip, which, albeit gratifying, might have been a dubious decision.

210*4 straps

220*4 nice and easy

Floor supported ring pullups, somewhat prone position

17 - strangely hard, easy pump for my right lat and arm

17 hard

17 more - seems to be my max range without making rest/pauses

Bicep curls - some reps with light dumbbells, then 16 kg kettlebell - 20 reps from supine position into slight pronation, then 15 more - getting tired in general. Did I tell you about how the session time is really responsible for the overall energy level? Unless you manage to completely break the session, the longer you train - the more tired you get. If you wanna have max response to your efforts you should limit the session to 90 minutes - or even less. Especially if you have strange diet habits, like I do. I'm not really capable of expressing myself correctly right now. Thursday is one of the harder days. Although, to be honest, yesterday was significantly more tiring somehow. Then 32kg kettlebell - 15 curls with a backetball grip, both hands. Pretty hard.

Bodyweight squat - 10 reps, then I just forgot about it.

Training time - too long overall, deadlift - good enough

 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...

September 14th - Engaging in a variety of hobbies at once, nonchalant grip PR

 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 ...
