ACHES/INJURIES: right ring finger fucked in a new way, no can grip
SORENESS: none
MENTAL STATE: motivation kind of low, had to drag myself through this

- warm up

- superset x 3
-- high-rear-foot BSS x 20/leg
-- push up x 20
-- band pull-apart x10,10,30

- AMRAP double unders x 20 mins
487. paced myself too much early, had to work hard at the end to get there. love this.

the inside of my right fingernail is now extremely tender. totally fine unless i apply any lateral pressure to it. since gripping involves fingers being together, no can grip. fuck.

i literally just said "oh my god" out loud.

ACHES/INJURIES: right ring finger fucked in a new way today, right knee mildly
SORENESS: none
MENTAL STATE: fine

- warm up

- bench

decided to take the AELS route and not test my knee. then went to bench and the new way in which my right finger seems to be injured prevented me from even gripping the empty bar properly. same went for pull up bar. bagged it.

following a comment in leonel's journal, here's that greek proportions thing that joe posted in the OG era: http://www.fitness.com/tools/greek_proportions/.

here's what i've got now (diff from "ideal" measurements in parentheses):

wrist: 6.8"
chest: 42.4" (-1.8")
forearm: 12.0" (-0.8")
waist: 31.5" (+0.6")
thigh: 23.7" (+0.3")
hip: 37.7" (+0.1")
calf: 15.5" (+0.5")
biceps: 13.8" (-2.2")
neck: 15.0" (-1.4")

fwiw i think a little bloated from huge breakfast, waist was 31" even the last time i measured. so, same as ever: legs close to greek ideal according to some random website. chest, neck and especially arms skinny.
i feel good about my current project to get slightly more swole.

there's a doorway at my friend's place that i can slap, she's moving out soon but reminds me that finding something to measure progress against is good, even if i'm not focused on jumping right now.

- AMRAP double unders x 10 mins
~270, lost count briefly at the beginning so don't know exact number. pace obviously higher than thursday. my soleus/calves are sore today.

- stretch

i am, to be perfectly blunt, worried you're going to hurt yourself with the amount of volume you're doing.

158, damn that's a lot for you! but if it comes with strenf that you can maintain to an extent while getting back toward 150, worth it.
