November 13th, Saturday - OHP and actually running

 12.11.2022

Nice day. Didn't have much to do. Worked yesterday. Was bored. Managed to go to bed early. Woke up at 5AM and then went to bed later. Woke up after noon and had a moderate breakfast. Not sleepy. Started having coffee. I think I found a way to make moka coffee nicely - you must not let the water jerk out. Control the fire and the amount you put in. Now watching a Fallout youtuber streaming. He's one of us, so I donated him a lot of stuff to mess with him as well as help him in Fallout 4. Very funny. People keep spawning radroaches. It's magnificent. I missed watching streams like that. My social bar is filling up. Oxytocin. That way the game feels kinda like multiplayer.

Some of my house came home. Now I want a third coffee.

Well, they're smaller than normal. I don't use all the water now. Good.

Workout

Moderate all arouind warmup

Overhead press

20

50 for 8

70 for 8

80 for 5

90 for 5

100 for 4 - nice, but it's heavier than I'd like it to be today. I gotta deal with this somehow, make it right... Maybe I'm tensing up too much. I feel like I forgot how to lift. Well, I did it super strictly, so that's good.

100 for 4 - way easier, RPE6, like 80 kilos

100 for 4 - harder. Way too strict! Funny. It's been bleached.

100 for 4 - way better, no cramping type of strictness. If you make the movement counterproductive - it's not the strictness you need, I tell you.

Some cooldown.

Ran a kilometer in 7 minutes 46 seconds. Well, I only ran a small portion of it. Started with walking to warmup, then half-sprinted, walked, then did some of this with intervals. Wasted some time trying to walk through mud carefully - that could have been avoided. And learning technique. It's very easy to run in a counterprductive manner. What matters is that I'm not wasted to death. I made sure to not allow myself to breath through my mouth - I can't afford risking a cold. I was sniffing very loudly. Okay.

Maybe I'll do some walking/running tomorrow. Should help me. It's a very light load, only 8 minutes. And I weigh more than 112 kilos with clothing and boots. My boots are sort of closing down circulation in my calves. My toe extending muscles - the front of my shins - pumped like concrete. Okay. Please, pray for my health and let me not catch a cold. God help me!

Played Fallout 4. Enjoyed it 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 ...
