this is turning into kind of a lost week workout-wise. tuesday was a washout, then felt sick last night and had a work dinner that bumped a different work dinner to tonight, and friday evening i'll probably have my visiting colleagues over for drinks. earliest i can get to the gym is saturday.

ACHES/INJURIES: waiting for right fingernail to fall off; right knee a tiny bit; whole body felt weak
SORENESS: soleus
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- squat 110 x 8
wondered why it felt so light, facepalmed, put 120 on, couldn't even do one rep

- bench 72.5 x 2
nnnnope. weak.

chalking this up to not enough calories today. diet today was bad, diet in general has been bad on workout days. partly this is attributable to work being crazy but that's a weak excuse. need to get diet and sleep back on track.

i understand how the programming is supposed to go, my point was that you tend to get discouraged and distracted as soon as you stall and that it doesn't matter which program you choose, you'll still stall at some point. just pick one and stick with it.

progress won't be perfectly lateral regardless of which you choose. if you go with doubles to triples you'll still stall and get frustrated. if you want to get better at push press, do mostly push press. or, listen to pendlay because he's an actual expert.

iirc OHP translates to bp better than the other way around. depends on your goal. sounds like that has to do with push press, so i'd say just focus on that. if you're worried about form, do less weight for more reps and don't let yourself go to even volitional failure until you're more confident.

give it ten more years and you can sit out the dance with your dearest of dears. my parents' 21st anniversary was my freshman year of college and i somehow found this poem in the pre-everything-on-the-internet years and sent it to them in a card from school. remains the only good anniversary gift i've ever given them, lol: https://travelingpoet.net/2016/11/09/the-anniversary-by-ogden-nash/

Went for a run with the wife yesterday. Strange way to celebrate our 11 year wedding anniversary but we went for Vietnamese and beers afterwards which was cool.

Body is pretty much sore all over right now. It's doms like soreness and not injury like so that's ok. May or may not rest today but will definitely push legs out till tomorrow.

c. have decided that from feb, im going to commit to 11 months of non-cutting. even if im fat (and i am), i will just accept it and try to get as strong as possible without getting fatter.

d. i will prob go back to doing heavy jumpsquats as main explosive exercise, push presses are not the answer i wanted. that or i will teach myself to do the classical lifts, but considering im such a spazz when it comes to easier movements maybe that's just a dead end lol

RBs are bigger than DBs as a rule.

watching the russian animal dude made me think about how much MORE freaky the likes of byron jones, antonio brown, ezekiel elliott, ODB, etc. are.

that guy plays american football in russia. the bush leagues. NFL players are INSANELY athletic.

welcome back, and nice job on the PRs, especially the pull ups. you're tall, hitting three sets of 10+ is solid.
