ikea is a weird first date, man. maybe ask her on a more traditional first date.

yeh you right. i didnt meet her on some online dating app tho. knew her irl kinda thru acquintances so i cant just ask her out straight up, would be a bit akward if she declined. but nevermind, at least i wont waste more time now. also girls will agree to something just to go out wiht you and then change the venue/activity to suit them in my experience .. it's saying yes thats' important not so much what you initially propose doing

ah, then yeah best to be careful. a friend of mine is dealing with a related situation right now: crushing on/flirting with her neighbor but needing to play it real slow and make super sure he's interested before she makes a move because he lives literally 20 feet away from her. don't want to create an awkward-elevator situation if you don't have to

my friend the yoga teacher has a client with a winged scapula. asked her just now. she's had some success with band-resisted scap protractions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mSAeOOaAuc) and scap presses (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqr4ghqgWS4). weak serratus anterior is a contributing factor to winged scap and both of those target it.

also she obviously knows some good yoga positions for strengthening/increasing awareness and control around shoulder. specifically:
-holding plank (we did this this morning, with the cue to press the floor away from you)
-rotating through side planks
-chaturanga dandasana
-cobra
-locust
-crow and side crow

no one can reliably diagnose you here. go to the doctor.

Mental fog is heavy but im keen to get thru today and punch in the clock. While running my heart rate went crazy, hovered over 160bmp and got up to a max of 214!! so idk, either im really unfit or theres measurement error or both.

Of course your HR would have nothing to do with the PSMF I guess  :ninja:

I don't want to sound like a prick and half the time I'm not sure I even know what I'm doing but seriously mate, you start a no carb/no fat diet, have a shitty workout and then go and smash some maccas to make yourself feel better. Because #recovery. Stop thinking in terms of 10 day cuts and mini cuts and mini bulks and whatever else. It's so frustrating to sit here and see you spin your wheels. You say you're unathletic/obese but I call bullshit. You've got great ability, dedication, super long arms and when you train and eat in a sane fashion you get great strength gains too. Fix your relationship with food first and everything else will take care of itself.

(yes I realise this is a case of pot/kettle given how I train but fuck me it's so frustrating to see someone else do it)

this morning

SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: normal morning upper back/neck tightness
MENTAL STATE: good

- yoga x 50 mins
friend slept over and we'd agreed the night before to get up a bit early and do some yoga before work. felt awesome. i'm not going to be able to do 50 minutes every morning but if i can cobble together a 15-minute yoga/calisthenics routine out of the work we did this morning i'll be a happy camper. opening the neck and upper back alone was worth it.

cool, good reminder to do something in the morning after waking up. i don't know that i'll ever be a morning training person, but just 10-15 minutes of dynamic stretching makes a difference throughout the day.

even short courses can have negative health effects, not least on your mood. and if you're already in a bad place, is it really worth the risk of exacerbating that? risking a deeper trough than you're in right now?

don't take them now. if you're going to take them, wait until you're feeling good and stable.

I reckon you can definitely pull pretty well with those kroc row/trap DL numbers! It just take you time to develop muscular endurance. When I was training with the sprint squad we'd do a fitness circuit 2x/week doing 3xF pullups along with other stuff. I went from your level (7-8/set) to doing 14-16 per set in a couple of month and a max of 23 after a full season; you'll do the same if not better.

eh, maybe, but it's relative. bench and squat just go up faster/easier than DL or pull ups. maybe i just like them more. anyway i kind of like trap bar DL, if my knee is going to keep being annoying i might work it in 1-2x/week.
