Squats - 4 sets of 15 (more info below)

20.10.2021

Overhead press - the plan for today dictates 72.5% for 4 sets of 6.

Not gonna lie - I've been fussing over trying to figure out how to monetixe my channel. What's wrong with my adsense? Well, anyway, I followed some instructions in doing something, and now I'm more hopeful again.

Cold. It snowed for the first time. I remember. I've taken way too much time. Also I've been writing a long drum sequence cause I wanna create stock music for myself, so I don't have to use someone else's. There's a lot of things you can do quite easily to create a nice background sound for voiceovers and such. And it's a great creative process.

My wrist has been hurting a lot. It's been hurting from me using my thumb. So I won't play durms with my right hand, or use my thumb in fingerstyle on guitar. Today, and maybe tomorrow. Just limiting it. And ideally no riffing on the elctric guitar, no tremolo picking and such. But I am going to load my wrist with some presses and pushpresses today. Pray for me! I really want to get good technique on PPs today. And ideally I should be able to do 3 sets of 6 with minimal fatigue. Reducing it to 3 - so I have energy for PPs.

Overhead press

Warmup

70*6

90*6

92,8 for 6

96,3 for 6 - kinda ugly, unbalanced. What changed? Not sure. Back stiff, lower body fatigued, CNS depleted. I don't feel bad, thankfully, I feel sufficiently nice. After all, I did do the presses.

Some drumming - only a little bit. Didn't use my right hand much.

Push press

50 for 3

70 - 3 sets of 3

Well, that's about it. I have a session tomorrow as well. And I sort of had a session yesterday. I was really distracted before I started my workout yesterday. It all started with a small cup of robusta coffee. Then I actually made a video about KoboldAI - so, two videos in two days! I've been feeling really positive about this youtube channel of mine. I can post anything there, as long as it's sufficiently creative! It's a dream, slowly coming true. It will be great.

Here's the video itself, by the way. I think it might be time for me to start putting more effort into those. Since I'm not doing it every day, I find it okay to spend some time finishing separate tasks. Most importantly, writing a coherent script.

What else? Nothing, I think. I wanted to write about something important.

Yes, tomorrow I shall work out more. And on saturday I'll press again, same stuff, but more powerfully - cause my techniue today was rather unsatisfactory.

Random pictures of the day - two of them this time

 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 ...
