24th of November, 2022, Thursday - Light squat and running

 24.11.2022

Nice day. Not much. Slept enough, ate little, work cancelled, had two moderate coffees (cheap), still got jumbled in my head. now having a little bit of tea to hydrate and then I'm off to do a tiny bit of working out and for a run on a different route. Been watching my fav russian FO76 youtuber play interactive FO4, I wrote about it before. I missed watching streams for a long time. I wish I could go sooner. Patience. It matters.

Workout

Lower body warmup

Squat

Unloaded yesterday's barbell

50 - 70 - 90 for 10 that feels about enough for today. I'm getting done what needs to be done.

Legs are already warmed up a bit. Picked a different running route. I'll measure 1 km and then there'll be some more, roughly 400 meters. Eager to see some improvement.

Rubber supported squats - 10/10/10 and some calf raises in between sets.

Ran a kilometer in 8:25. Feeling like shit, for the lack of the better expression. Overall I'm only displeased a little bit, cause it's only reasonable that my energy is lowered today from yesterday. Curious - did not run out of breath at all today, instead my leg muscles were getting tired. Awfully disbalanced, feeling like my right leg is in the center and my left leg is on the side. Well, I know I'm not as disbalanced when I have more energy. A somewhat nice point - no difficulty breathing, that just *might* be indicative of the fact that my cardio has gotten a tiny bit better. And the air did not feel cold. But, of course, maybe it's cause I just did not run intensely enough. I know I'm doing what I need to do, so that's something. Enough of this. I'm really cranky. Wanna feel calm.

 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 ...
