Wednesday, April 14th - Deadlift

 13.04.2022

Nice day.

The plan: 2 sets of 3 with 80%, and three sets of 1 with 87,5 percent. All of it WILL be light working weight. Well, light enough for me to lift easily. Let's calculate...

216 for 3, 225 for 3, 245 for 1, 253 for 1, 262 for 1

and then a "clean single" with 255, just like last week.

Feeling much more fresh right now that in the morning. Had a long nap, woke up feeling nice, had coffee. Didn't order groceries again. Hmm. Played music. Felty very good. Brain = a bit jumbled, which is not a bad sign in terms of activating my CNS. Grandiose! Hurry up now. No time to waste! Let's go! I think I'll do so much more music tonight, just like the last few days. Standing over Musescore, calculating, playing guitar. Trying to figure out my tone with preamps, compressors and such. Well, can't do it iwthou7t the mix yet, ha ha! And, to not forget - I think I'm going to change the main riff as well today. Less repetitive.

Deadlift

50 - 100 - 150 few reps. Must not tire my CNS. My old mental pains are aggravated today.

190 for 3

215 for 3 nice

225 for 3 okay. I wasn't sure about reps, but hten I checked again - it is indeed mere 2 sets of 3 for the start. Singles might take me way too much time. I should consider resting for less.

245 for 1 okay, better than last set. Didn't film. Must film. Must remember and see.

252.3 for 1 nice

262,3 for 1 - nice :D Practical PR+2,5 kgs. BUT it's still only 80% of my supermax! I can't allow myself to have 80% of my max be my max! I MUST continue. So, I officially decree this as NOT a PR.

255 for 1 - nice and smooth
I think I'm supposed to do these "clean singles" without straps. But strapless DLs are more dangerous than you think. Hook grip - tear your skin, mixed grip - tear your skin, connective tissue and rotate yourself all over the place. However, I would like to do something for my grip. Perhaps I should lift a lighter weight overhand. It will be great.

190 for 1 overhand lift - pretty nice, considering the fatigue, plus I didn't "hook it" with my calluses, just my fingertips.

Lifted up a 20 kg metal plate by the hub. Feels nice. I'll try it again after I trim my nail.

Lifted it partially, unloaded the bar, tried pinching a pair of 25s with the right hand - not too easy.

Pinched some more, did holds after lifting them up with both hands. That has be enough. I have a rather moderate amount of extra energy that I'd like to preserve.

Found why my a random emoji window was opening when I locked the screen with Windows button + L. I was accidentally pressing Win + :. Curious! Now I can type random emojis easily. 😡👺👾bruh




it's a very innocent joke, just fyi. metahumor.

October 08-09, Sunday and Monday - Bench, PP, small PR, nice Olympic style Squat

 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 ...
