When I am more active during the school year, I assume I feel worn down from all the activity.

Now that I am a month into summer I can't seem to catch up, still wasted wtf?

Motivation to improve is low atm. Today was my first day off in a spell and get going enough to visit the barbell. best workout all month.

Feels like my ability to recover is at 0%. Over the last week weights have felt impossible.
did some warm up jumps pre-work out and felt glued to the ground. blah.

^^^^ thanks man. The motivation of what you and others on this board have got done keeps me rolling.

deadlift 5x185, 5x225, 3x245

solid workout. warmed up with jump rope, and my side was splitting after 1.5 minutes.

cardio wise I blow. Been working a band to gain some more mobility in my ankle recently. It really seems to be helping. That + lacrosse ball rolling on my foot for the win.

^^^^ Yes!

Heavier weight = progress in my book.

Had too much on my plate this weekend. weights ended up getting pushed then rushed. Still 5x250 felt great. I hit a wall on the third set and had to call it a day.

Usually I can't seem to move weight as well on a basketball day, but today felt great. Jumps felt solid, and 250 moved smooth and easy.

5/12/16 Thursday BW=165.4

3 step jumps 5x5
jump squat 5x45, 5x95
squat 3x185, 1x225, 1x245, 1x255, 1x265, 1x270

yesterday my stomach was twisted, had to finally just lay down. This morning I still was not feeling 100%, by the time I got off work I was beat.

Took some green tea caps and pushed myself to do something. Surprisingly my jumps were better then they have been in years. Got up to 270 on my squat didn't feel like 275 would go up easy so I stopped. Today feels like progress.

^^^^ Trying to add weight slowly. Nothing crazy just working up to reps of 8 and then adding weight.
My capacity to add volume seems to fluctuate greatly. A weight that I can rep for 8 easily one day can be unmanageable for 3. On those days I just back it off and try to get some reps in.


5/1/16 Sunday BW=165.0

jump squat 5x45, 5x95
squat 3x185, 1x225, 1x245, 7x235, 6x235, 7x235
deadlift 5x185, 5x225, 5x245, 5x255
calf raise 3x12x190

case in point today 235 was solid. Bar speed was great, nothing weird or forced. This is how I need every workout to progress. Working my way back to 8x245 is where I need to be in the short term.

After playing ball 3 days last week + walking a few more 20,000 step days my right calf is knotted. This week calls for more foam rolling and less pounding.
