January 15th - Nice DL 248 for 4 sets of 3

 15.01.2025

Nice day. Yesterday was pretty tiring. Finally done some walking and dealt with some stuff, didn't get much sleep. I had some annoying problems with my PC and my various VPNs misbehaving and interacting poorly with GTAV. I've been playing GTAV way too much, a lot of fun.

Today I woke up and found those issues fixed. Thank God! Had some mildly disturbing dreams, otherwise nice. Slept well, ate somewhat decently.

Today we got a big ass deadlift. Session 11 - 4 sets of 3 with 82,5%. I still need some time. 247-250, about that. Should be easy.

Workout

Deadlift

20 for 20

70 for 15

123 for 8

163 for 5

203 for 3

233 for 3

248 for 3 - decent, smooth, albeit not quite velocious; loose middle belt.

248 for 3 okay, a little better but it was harder to collect myself. Belt a tiny bit tighter, middle

248 for 3 okay, high belt, took too long a break and took too long listening to a song for it to get to a fast part, but otherwise nice. High belt, smooth and controlled, slower than I wish it was but otherwise I feel powerful and capable. Starting too feel nice finally, been waiting for it since yesterday.

248 for 3 - lovely, feeling in control today. This one moved a little faster than the previous one, I think. Didn't record, I admit. If I'm ever gonna go 'there' again I'd like to invest in a proper bodycam - for memories, also so that can confirm if I'm supposed to be getting paid for 'extra' stuff when I do that stuff. I kinda want the war to end asap, I admit. Doesn't matter. I want things to go back to the way they were, at least in terms of what it was like for me. But it can't happen, obviously. Bad guys need to understand how and why they were wrong.

This deadlift felt like I didn't do enough. Not very fatiguing at all, desprite the difficulty. Frontal lobes pleasantly flooded with endorphins.

 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 ...
