Nice day. Decent sleep, decent nutrition. Worried my illness isn't going away. Took out the antibiotics, had one. Might be a mistake.

Back doesn't hurt. Evened out my mattress a bit. Was really "distracted" yesterday - before the workout. Got lactic acid in muscle. Kind of a forgotten feeling. Funny. Gonna work out today too. Having coffee with soda. Nice combo. Not mixed, of course, in separate cups. Coffee tastes nostalgic. I should do more different exercises. Doesn't matter what kind. The minimalism is good, but it's gone too far. Gonna do some bicep curls and maybe even some ridiculous exercises - as long as they're fun. Hope to do something heavier on Saturday.

Took some time learning to play a song in double drop D on my acoustic. Then jammed a bit on my SG. When you write things on paper first - they're really different. Gotta do it more often.

Decided to change the strings. I've been wanting to switch back to D Standard. Took them off carefully. I now have a stockpile of used strings. Wiped it up with a computer tissue as well as microfiber tissue with the based cleaner. Applied lemon oil to the fretboard. The 7th fret seems the most used up, he he. I wanna fix electronics on my blue G310. Maybe I should just try buying a new pickup.

Playing in D Standard with the good ol' "Not Even Slinkies". They so awesome! I've been missing this. Absolutely radical. Inspiration appeared extra.

Worked. Did not manage to spend time to work out before that.

Workout

Some warmup

Squat

3 sets of 10

16 kg kettlebell - 3 sets of 10

Curl and press, alternating one arm

6+6 kg dumbbells - 3 sets of 15 - works all the side muscles a bit too. Nice.

One legged deadlift

6+6  - 2 sets of 10 each leg

One arm deadlift

16 kg kettlebell - 2 sets of 10 each side

Deadlifts, no weight, deficit - touching the floor

2 sets of 10 - feels strangely powerful. That's good.

Nice workout in the end. I oughta do more like this. Both minimal and maximal. More exercises. More muscles used. Just feeling more fresh.

I was playing Red Dead Redemption 2 as I was having my little workout. It's entertaining, but not quite captivating.

As expected, it gets better, of course. Like a movie.

 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 ...
