Thursday, October 20th, 2022 - Light bench

 20.10.2022

Nice day. Wasn't very hungry. Decent sleep. Intense dreams. Worked, ate, waited, having coffee, playing guitar, hanging out with my little brother. One lesson got cancelled. Helping him do his homework. Having my second coffee. Upset about something - hopefully minor, not sure if real. Don't like to be abused. Paranoid? I don't think so. There's a lot of debt unpaid... in blood.

Anyway, I bought a new coffee - Bushido, this time a small bag cause it wasn't that overpriced. I thinkn buying coffee in small bags is a good choice, cause you really get bored of the same taste. Thus, the coffee feels spoiled before it's actually spoiled. My bag of robusta is seasoned. I'm glad I don't have a gun, I would have fucking shot myself on impulse. Pardon. All thye other ways of suicide are much more risky. Well, the gun is too. Gunshot sucide survivor. And suddenly you wanna live without a face and a brain. Or they just don't let you finish it, subduing your brain with deadly neuroleptics. Kill. Kill those who threaten before they kill you. Kill them. Well, that's just coffee thoughts. Threats are a big deal, you know. If somebody does get killed and they were threatened you should arrest the person who made threats. Filth. Not human. Not even an animal. Filth, filth, filth. Die. I hope that piece of filth dies and becomes dust. I hope I don't get my hands on that piece of filth, cause I won't be able to let go. But let's be real - bad things deserve to be annihilated, removed from this world. Bad actors. Things that do bad actions. Turned into dust.

Anyway, back to normality. Watching House. Enjoying the first season. Watched it a very long time ago, didn't watch it in 2019. In 2019 I started from the end of season two quite randomly.

Almost 9 PM. Feel like I wanna bench today, which is weird. But it's gonna help me keep up.

Finished my second coffee. Not gonna have another one today. Starting my workout soon. It's gonna be short and sweet.

Workout

Some all-around warmup

Pushups - very hard to do today, really tense wrist after yesterday's grip training. First - 15 reps after some stretching. Then 15 more - so much easier.

Bench press

50 - 70 - 80 for 10

85 - 3 sets of 8 - paying attention to the technique

Squat

20 for 10 - this time with a bar. Gotta do it, gotta work on that specificity if I wanna load a big weight on it.

50 for 8

90 for 5 right hip hurts randomly. Decided to stop. Must be yesterday's DLs.

Did a few BW squats, checking myself. Realised I should have spent some time warming up - my ankles were of different tightness, possibly due to shoes. Did some basic stretching for a short while.

 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 ...
