* uncoordinated with the squats a bit. needed more volume to get smoother. was not able to lift as often during the worknights. calf raises doing well. 2nd set of 585s really felt light.
* will now focus on the upperbody push with the standing dumbell press with high volume clustered reps. would be nice to get to 70-80lbs. the 60lb today did not feel very heavy yet.

* tiring now with the 90lb weighted chins. will be a bit stronger this afternoon but still not recovered enough to match my best x3 x3 x3 with 90lb. might do 90 x1 x1 for maintenance while i go for volumes on the shoulder press. x40 with sets of 10s.
* squats still felt pretty good. considering my sleep pattern for the last 2 day is not optimal.

* after the 6am lift yesterday, went to a day time classroom training at work that started 8am. worked straight till 8am this morning. got a 1.5 hr nap at lunch break. did not lift after work this morning (but i had my gym stuff just in case), not because i was sleepy - it was mid 40s cold this morning and i needed a hot shower to warm up. lack of sleep + hot shower = knocked out. 200mg caffeine at 2am / 6am was enough to keep me functioning. did not go over my personal set limit of 1g/day. read anyway that LD50 for caffeine at my weight is 15g.. not taking anywhere close to that.
*  got some strong sleep after eating 3x chicken breast grilled using my infrared convection oven. so strong again with everything today. IMO, repeatable max for 172-174BW is 385 (2.24BW). now that i'm at 176-178, i'm back to the 405s (2.3BW). another 2-4lbs and at 178-180BW, thats 425s (2.39BW) repeateable paused reps again.

* single arm shoulder dumbell press GPP is working well. i'm feeling my front delts getting beat. looking forward to upping the volumes on these to x40 a workout. body also correcting the form naturally. top ROM is ~ load center, trailing leg has calves plantar flexed. a bit of torso twist when getting tired - but will minimize these as i am not going for push presses yet.

* squats are very strong today. i'm back to the 425s. dry BW getting close to 176lb. exactly 80kg. ~ 178 at gym time. i set most of my repeatable heavy lifts at high 170s/low 180s and peaked to a slim low 170BW with the 440-445 - these are PR/peak lifts while eliminating most water weight.. not repeatable at all.

more pics of the shoes and less calves. (u see what i did there)

By the way - how do you use the smith machine? You need to rotate the bar to put it back? Is there any other way to re-rack it? Because at my gym I have to rotate the bar using the hands and it's sliding in my hands and I have to bend my back to help rotate it back on the racks and I've had TERRIBLE back pain two times from this - so I'm not using it anymore. Way too dangerous for my back because of this.

Is there any other way I'm not aware of to re-rack the weight?

that is why i use gloves doing these. need to really squeeze the bar on the knurl area and twist that thing to re-rack. the bar also gets harder to twist the more weight you have in there.

smith machine double leg calf raises - paused reps.

675x5. heaviest i've done is 765x1.  calf still got to push to a decent top ROM but my whole torso felt like it will snap if i screw up and loose tightness even for a slit second.

warmup sets at 585x10 with top ROM like it was BWs after the 2nd set. 495 and lower might as well be BWs.. :headbang:

* noticed on the 50lb dumbell press that my right arm is noticeably weaker than my right. need to do more of these standing shoulder dumbell press to balance things out.
* calf work was not so bad but not very coordinated either. too much skipped days. i was able to do clustered x10s last time. just stopped at x5 to make sure i don't over-exert when the motion does not feel very smooth. best was a x6, sub 60sec rest.. then another x4 for the clustered 10s. will do that either this afternoon or tmrw.

got a new pair of adipowers to add to my WL shoes collection.

marquez was the lighter boxer at the weigh ins yet he appears to be a heavyweight today.. KO power but with crappy stamina. he was tiring so fast. then the perfect punch happened. :(

* tired from lack of multi naps. a straight 6+hr sleep gets me awake for 14hr. need more naps in between workouts to really feel recovered. squats felt smooth as usual but the other lifts felt like crap today. can't even x3 the 70lb chin. shoulder press with 40lb only.

* just getting the volume up on the shoulder press. single arm to lessen load to back and for that extra top ROM. free hand braced to a shoulder level post. not sure of weight/rep goal yet but 80-100lbx4-6 sounds like a good mark. doing these instead of the weighted dips. these single hand press feels a lot more comfortable as my upperbody compound push (weighted chins for pulls) instead of the weighted dips. can't have too much tricep/shoulders either. the less chest the better. no more dips.
* skipped my heavy calf raises. this is my 4-day 13hr long work week nights.. need to take it easy.

improvements in the SVJ carries over to the RVJ

keep it simple. get massive SVJ with the heavy compounds / SVJ drills.. play the sport and the RVJ will eventually take care of itself. manufacturing the SVJ takes time but its a sure thing.

you are not going to think about the mechanics of the approach jump or plants (which you will probably screw yourself up anyway), if you are going for a layup or running after / defending somebody preparing for a block.. those are the best drills.. the live in-game, chasing something.. natural adrenalin fueled drills.
