Eighth - light, Saturday - OHP

08.08.2024

Light day - been busy, didn't sleep well, lats severely fatigued and were cramping yesteday

Rubber lat pulls - 2 sets of 20 light, one arm, 1 set of 20 hard rubber

Floor supported ring pullups - very light, a lot of leg support

2 sets of 20

Squats

2 or 3 sets of 20

Curls with raised elbow on a 5 spring chest expander, one arm

2 sets of 15 - it's a lot of fun

I just now realised why New Vegas Hydra is called that. And I'm not gonna tell you! But it has been almost fourteen years... How curious.

I've switched from two greater evils to Duckduckgo. Somehow I feel so much more free, even though I can't put a picture on my empty tab now. I probably could find a way, but I don't care enough to do it.

AND duckduckgo has the small LLMs for the chat mode! Not bad.

Workout

Warmup - decent, not long

Overhead press

20 for 10

50 for 10

70 for 10 - this was my quick warmup as my CNS finally felt fresh enough to lift heavier weight.

90 for 4

93 for 4

95 for 4

98 for 3 and I almost managed to push through the sticking point - my mistake, once again, was taking too little of a break. I was unsure, even though my CNS felt alright. I might have been doing too much excessive breathing / moving etc.

98 for 3 + 1 fail again, but I made up. Hmm. I need better energy accumulation.

 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...

September 14th - Engaging in a variety of hobbies at once, nonchalant grip PR

 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 ...
