Nice day. Fell asleep relatively early yesterday. Did some things in the morning, took care of things, worked. Had a large breakfast very early. Fell asleep again. Woke up not too late. Had coffee. Some good news relating to our situation. Less to worry about. Had one lesson posponed to later at night, so I'm having my light workout now.

Some lower body warmup - kneeling squats/hip thrusts on the bed (much better for my knees), and it's great for opening up your pelvis. A lot of people have an issue with lower back lordosis. This can help. Great for deadlifts.

Squats

4 sets of 15 - bodyweight

1 set of 15 - 16 kg goblet squat, some reps explosive

2 sets of 15 - 16 kg goblet jumpups, fully explosive - hard stuff, made me breathe, legs pumped

Then I had a break. What else to do?

I wanna watch a movie called "after.life". It has some of my favorite elements - it's a thriller, it got Christina Ricci (all 90s kids love her), and Liam Neeson (same goes for him).

Too bad they murdered Star Wars. Well, murdered and reanimated. I heard that disney shows these days are pretty good, despite being childish. Too bad it's already ruined for me, with the first two movies. They had nice moments, and would definitely be imppressive to a child that hasn't seen anything before. Just like Episode I was to me, meanwhile older generation hated it for being different from original trilogy. And I guess the new trilogy is for zoomers and gen alpha, and maybe younger, less pessimistic millenials. Gen Xers are old people already. Who would have thought!

Lat rubber pulls

2 sets of 20 (medium, feels like 50 kg)

2 set of 20 heavier (folded it in two) - pretty hard

 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 ...
