Things are going somewhere again. Is it gonna happen? It hasn't happened two times so far. But I need a change, any kind of change, and I hope confidently that this will be a good change. Sometimes you gotta de-tox on all the sweet stuff and have some good simple things. Still though, I ain't rushing. What am I talking about? I wrote about it quite directly in 2023 at some point. Man, 2023 is sort of a lost year. Well, no, I had good things. Almost six months of newfound purity mixed with other stuff which might not have been as good. I need something new, man. I've been feeling like I'm heading there. It's the only thing that makes sense. I do it and I'll receive help that I need. I know what I need to do. It'll be good. We've eliminated some bad things from out mind. No brass pipes, let's hope.

I gave a really nice lesson today, it was slow but nice, felt good and thoughtful. Less good lesson in the evening, got a little headache. Buzzing just ever so slightly. Wanna OHP today. Hmm.

Week 7, Session 2 - 5 sets of 4 with 80% again. Wondering if it'll be good. Ah.

Funny I'm listening to War Starter (Saint Virus). Well, it ain't what it's about. We all gotta be the War Enders, man. It's been there in 2014. Outrage, violence, innocents killed. How come we ain't been doing enough back then? Accursed lust for money, that's what's up. I'd say we gotta squeeze the mammon worshippers till they bleed our blood back to us, that's what I'm thinking. Bloodsuckers, that's who they are. But maybe that's the quest for the future generations. For all the humanity. Change ourselves.

Workout

Warmup - a little bit

Overhead press

20

50 for 5 really cold tonight

70 for 5 kind of uncomfortable

70 for 5 perhaps a little better

90 for 5 okay

100 for 4 okay as well

103 for 4 nice, super strict, enjoying the air in my lungs and pressure in my head

105,5 for 4 - nice, way too strict; stuck at the slow lockout on the last rep, struggled for what felt like 3+ seconds. Face popping like I took some L-carnitine.

By the way, did I mention I threw away my l-carnitine I had for years? It's not in the same category as even vitamins. It not completely pseudo, I concede, but it's still kind of a bad thing cause it's a marketing product. It's one those thing that could be a gateway to real pseudo shit.

108 for 4 - lovely, less strict, more velocious, still smooth slow lockout

50 for 10

20 for 10

6 kg dbs for 20

 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 ...
