Not a great day. I don't know why I want to write about all this negative shit. Maybe I want to "get it out". It's like my mind, my will is poisoned with a realisation that I generally don't want to accept, but it forces me to pay attention to it. A curse, a grudge that I hold. Pain that hasn't been returned. Damage that hasn't been undone. Empty wastes of a human soul, with barely anything being able to grow there.
If it wasn't for a couple of (massive) spikes of negativity it'd be an above average day, at least 59/100. TBH I'm starting to hate waking up early - yes, that's what I did today. I woke up early, then had a nap, then had a nap later in the evening and I guess this lack of energy might be one of the reasons I feel like shit. I want to believe it's seasonal. Last may I was also low on energy, and that's when my new life began, when i decided to make a change. And what a change that was! Now I have to make some kind of change again. Planning to work on my neew video - an AID tutorial - tomorrow, and maybe even publish it, since saturdays are a good day for views. Wish me luck so whatever I make could be as far from shitposting as possible - unlike my last video, ha ha.

Man, it's a big bounce back. Today's almost 8/10, if I say so myself!
Had one lesson cancelled in the morning so I got an extra hour of sleep - how lazy of me to not be upset xD - then had another lesson, a good one with a pupil that gets distracted often, but I felt like we're making some progress. Had my spicy soup from yesterday for breakfast, as well as some oats. And apparently I gained quite some weight, and I might be heavier than I've ever been in my life now. I was already bigger than I've ever been, but now I'm also heavier, hopefully, not much fatter xD
Started having coffe around 4 PM, if I'm not mistaken, watched a couple of DaVinci Resolve tutorials, learned a couple of things, edited my video scripts and got to making it! Kept taking breaks to play our old acoustic Yamaha, today I didn't try to fingerstyle but instead explored some E Mixolydian and different fret positions, and finally found a nice F Minor barre chord (cuz I didn't like barre chords), and my cheap one-year old acoustic is so much worse due to high action, although this Yamaha has old strings and they really need to be changed, they look straight up decrepit, possibly older than 10 years, possibly stock strings xD
Then I had more coffee, made more of a video, learned a couple more tricks, and around 8 PM I was ready to upload it.
Finally, it was time to train. I wasn't sure about what to do, but I felt good, so...

Deadlift
Warmup
200*1 hook grip after an almost good overhand grip
230 - 3 sets of 3 - easy enough :D Abs cramping hard though
238*1 easy, thank God, cramped, possibly applied a littlew too much pressure to my innards, gotta work on my abs
And I drummed a tiny bit as well, not for very long though.
Well, now I'm a bit distracted browsing the web, so I amamnged to only do a few sets of lat rubber pulls.
I'm not even gonna fix my typos, they look so funny, ha ha!
Floor supported prone ring pullups
50 - kinda shorter range, 35 quickly and remaining 15 were rest/pause. Mini PR :) Massive arms cramps though xD Gotta do at least one more set. Let's see if a banana will help, with all the potassium, you know.
30 - slightly longer range, thanfully almost no cramps.
A set of seated one arm curls with a pair f 6 kg dumbbells in one hand - 15 right, 20 left - burning!

Finally, here's the video I made today! Never before have I ever edited a video so much!
And I asked a discord mod if I can post it, and they were so welcoming, I gathered a few comments -
What else? Perhaps a random pic of the day?
I'll post a pic that I used in the video -
