Saturday, May 21st - Nice PP day

 21.05.2022

Nice day. It's been two years and one day since my new lifestyle began. I wrote about it in my earlier posts in this blog.

Today - slept little, woke up early to work, had a decent sizeable breakfast. Could not fall back asleep after that. Must be cause I finally got enough sleep yesterday. I feel decently fresh. Arteries in my head feel a bit stretched. I wonder why.

Started having coffee. Today - it's mostly bushido witht he leftovers of the old brazilian coffee. 38 grams over 319 water. Tastes nice. Been seein a lot of espresso videos in youtube. Thinking of trying that moka pot thing. Maybe I'll go somewhere tomorrow.

Interesting fact - it's only 14:45 now. Hmm. Early for me to be writing in here.

So much time wasted on bull silly things.

Sometimes you just wanna confuse people. You want em to suffer just from seeing you. Just from seeing you act unnatural. Maybe not confuse. Maybe attract attention.

Spent a lot of time cleaning the guitar, changing the intonation etc. Then I did the same with bass. I actually enjoyed the way it sounded today. Recorded two bars (ha ha). Practiced the verse in the song. Realised my wrist is starting to hurt. Wanted to have more coffee and realised I have a lot of it unfinished. Warmed it up.

Six o clock. Habits die hard. I seem to not want to train until it's dark. Oh ho. I got pushpress today. Finished the coffee, cleaned up the acoustic Epihpone I have. I'm really glad I picked this one (Epiphone Pro something). Cheap and great. Pisses me off how expensive all us guitars are now. Fuck em. But, well, I should let politics interfere. They been doing some kind of promo on either sweetwater or whatever that fucking german site is - selling a Harley Benton SG with Gotoh furniture, and recently I saw one for sale at double the western euro price in one of the russian stores (tbh a shitty one). So, they're making pretty insane margins, eh? Shit baloney. I like that musik produktiv site. Maybe I should consider ordering from it when it's avaiable. And then see it I can resell it with a minimal margin, ha ha ha. Probably would be able to. Should consider buy these shitty euros/usd when they're hit rock bottom. They're heading there fast. Fuck em. And fuck those who print em dileberately. Filthy government-coverent liars. The game o economy might be filthier that politics even, when you think about it. Cause they never stop tryna squeeze that last drop o juice from gullible dumbasses. No matter what happens - they keep going.

Getting distracted for the first time in a long while. I should start at 7 PM. Limit my remaining time. Today we're doing 72,5% for 4 sets of 6. So I think we'll go from 105 to 112. And then we'll do a "clean single" with 127. Let's go. Start the engine! It's 18:41 and it's earlier than ever.

Workout

Overhead press

Warmup - light

70 - 80 - 90 - 102,8 for 5 - nice and strict, feels great. 102 is supposed to be more than 80% of 125, and I'm simply quite glad to see that it went super easy (RPE 5/10, if I say so myself).

A few sets o' drummin. I gotta print my exercises, oh ho ho.

Push press

60 - 80 for 6

110 for 6 harder than expected. My diaphragm wasn't completely warmed up. And I wasn't wearing a belt. For a moment, as I was lifting, I had a sense of "losing reality". I think I was running out of air in that moment. I felt like a... physical object. It's like I saw a dream for a very very short jiffy. Did you know that jiffy is an actual measurement of time?

You know, it's funny - crab is a meme animal, just like a monkey. I guess I'm not as original is the end. When did I start forcing crabs? It had to have started a while ago... But realistically - in 2021, as I got a new pc.

110 for 6 nice, easier

Started sanding the G310. I think I'm done with one side. The wood itself isn't perfectly even. It's got a hard patch. Started sanding the other side. I think, it's not gonna take as long as I feared. Less than a thousand rubs per spot, ha ha. 

112 for 6 very easy. But sanding the guitar in the garage was not the rightest idea 😁ðŸĪŠ Well, at least I don't sniff ammonia any more. I'm pretty it contributed to more than one of my illnesses throughout my garage life.

112 for 6 nice

127,8 for 1 - nice and easy

Squats - high bar

60 for 10

110 for 10 - high bar, narrow grip (unusual for me). Wide grip somehow allows me to keep my torse much straighter. Hmm.

130 for 10 did it with wide grip, I think I was buttwinking a lot (bending my lumbar). Glad it felt super easy though.

Okay. Put pieces of sanding paper into the water. Turns out the stuff on them is really easy to wash off. Hmmm.

 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 ...
