Nice day of melting

 10.07.2021

Woke up too early due to heat. Been boiling. Fell asleep later and slept for a while, sweating, seeing strange dreams. Felt good since I woke up. I knew I had just the right chemicals in my brain, ready to fire.

Had nice coffee. About 1.5 handfuls over two batches. First one was nice and dense. Second one was less dense - I didn't pour hot water over it, instead I let it heat up on a small fire. Was tasy enough. Caffeine is never enough to actually get high. You need a workout. My frontal lobes have been nicely washed.

Deadlift

70*1

120*1

160*1

200*1

230*1 very easy - I think I wasted my "CNS explosion" too early. I needed a powerful lift, but I spent my chamicals too early. So my brain got tired. But not completely.

252 for 1 and a half - well, what do you expect. Been boiling, although nutrition has been extra excellent. Big fatness growing.

252 for half a rep, got stuck at my knees for a while - probably could have done this rep if I straightened my legs instead of trying to squat it up, but that's not as important as the fact that I'm out of shape for a DL like that. I gotta DL just a bit more often with more volume. Then I can start a new program, maybe in august or earlier.

230 for 4 dead stop - I think that's a +1 rep PR :D :D :D not too big, but feels massively good, doing something I've never done before. And after heavy weights, too!

Got spent. But I still wanted to do more.

Bent over rows

70 - 2 sets of 10 - been doing everything in straps today, cause I got a tiny cut on my finger. I think you may wanna train your grip separately. Or not. My grip is weak. I think I'd barely be able to DL 240 kgs with a mixed grip, and that's twist me up a lot. Well, I don't have a thin bar with tough cnurling. Gotta wipe it with acetone. Everything is grimy, very grimy.

Put away the plates. It's been a couple hours since the workout. Exploring music. Been lazy on the youtube front. Only two videos this week so far. I think I'll finally make a "writing styles" video tomorrow. I want it to be good. And I gotta move away from AI games. I want to finish my Minecraft flatworld playthrough.

 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 ...
