ETA: also, i just discovered steve magness's youtube videos and i haven't been this excited about an online exercise nerd since i found lyle mcdonald 15+ years ago.

magness is so funny. his pure training content is great, but his "bigger picture" tweets are some of the most cringe content out there. come to think of it, i guess that adds to the lyle parallels

Short slightly faster one just to get something in, leaving me feeling a little crappy for today's run. Ah well lol, first back-to-back runs in a while.

it is from trump 2.0, plus co-president elon, who decided in his infinitely arrogant stupidity to try to destroy my industry. miraculously, i did keep my job (for now). back home from my trip and first day back at work today, seems like everything is pretty much in chaos.

i'd legit been on tenterhooks re your situation, so i'm glad to hear you've kept your job, even if everything else around it is borked

Felt more into the running than the lifting lately, so been a bit of an effort to get into the gym. Not bad once I've started, though.  :ibsquatting:

Run - 8.73km, 50:35

Notes

Literally conducted a 10 min phone call during this run without changing pace or feeling out of breath, so I'm pretty sure I am passing the talk test

Notes

Need to rest so long between lunge sets bc the "off" leg does a surprising amount of work (i do all my left reps, rest a while, right reps. alternating within a set feels bad)

Notes

Easier to standardise ROM with SLDLs [stiff-legged deadliftts] than GMs, so might try those out for a while. Certainly felt like I was getting a better hamstring stretch from them.

found out yesterday that i am 95% likely to get furloughed (i.e., placed on leave without pay) on february 14. there's a 3% chance that i keep my full-time post and a 2% chance that my position is terminated altogether. deep breaths.

ribs continue to improve: they are now just sore, no acute pain. really, really glad that they're healing in time for my ski trip, which starts this weekend! i'm not going to run before then, just in the interest of not pushing my luck with recovery. will do some walking today, probably outside as i'm taking a sick day and so will have time during the day for it.

yikes, fingers crossed for you man! hope you can at least fully enjoy the ski trip

Reverse Lunge
120 x 5

Lat Prayer
42.5 x 13, 10 + 30x11 + Pullups @20x5

Deficit Pushup
+20 x 15, 11 +BWx11

Incline Curl
20 x 16, 12

EZ Tricep
47.5 x 8, 5

Side Bend
50 x 8, 6

10 min bike

Notes

Played around with different degrees of incline for the curls and tricep extensions. Conveniently, think a lower incline for curls and higher incline for triceps works better, so I can just do the midpoint and not adjust the bench while supersetting them exercises.

Enjoying that I am getting some slow but real progress even with low-volume/low-freq training.

Tricep

Notes

For last few sessions getting into the low bar position has been a bit uncomfortable. Occured to me that flyes are basically a pec stretch. Swapping order made GMs way more comfortbale, love easy wins like that.
