Oct 07, 2024 - Working on and around the injury

 07.10.2024

Nice day. Slept well, very deep sleep. Lost my shit later when I realized I'm being robbed and I can't give a fuck about it. What a conflict! I just can't care. I'll fucking melt and flow down the drain, thank you.

Honestly, a fucked up day. Not a big deal. I feel good, in my own way, a surface way. And I managed to calm down in the end. And I'm realizing that  even though I consider myself a cultured and non-violent individual I may end up in a bad situation even when I don't expect to, or intend to. It's all so super abrupt, just like death. You think you can just cross the road, cross someone else's pathway? Well, no you can't, you gonna get run over even when you simply stand on the sidewalk.

Workout

Warmup - some

Squat

15, 20, 25, 30- experimenting with very wide thigh spread, cause that way my knees don't creak. Also, it's possible my inner thighs get more activated that way, although they do feel on the tighter side. I kinda wanna play GTA:SA and try to understand why I liked that game, how it compares to modern releases, you know?

Squat, weight in one hand

16 kg kettlebell for 20 reps - first right, then left. The muscle still hurts... Not sure how to counter this. Patience, I guess. The best I can...

16 kg for 20 - 5 left/5 right and again - a little better, much less pain

32 for 20 - a little worse (10 left/10 right), a little more pain, but not as bad as the first set. End up feeling twisted afterwards for quite a while due to right lower back pump...

12 kg dumbbell for 20, alternating side every two reps, starting with left - okay, minimal pain, at least at first. More pain later, gah...

Some hanging stretches - three sets

Man, I just gotta be patient.

 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 ...
