yeah but i'm trying to lose a decent amount of fat in just two weeks and then go back to normal. i tried to eat way under maintenance yesterday and failed. new respect for dieters, especially long-term dieters. it's funny, i've been interested by and reading about this stuff for years now but trying it for myself is a different story. no shit, i guess.

if i can ask, why are you going on a diet? you're pretty lean.

last night:

WEIGHT: 189 (174)
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right knee
MENTAL STATE: dead

- warm up

- SVJ x 5,5

- SL SVJ x 5,5/leg

- pogo x 10,10,10 + SL x 6/leg

- rest of workout

just felt very dead. also i think i either am undercounting calories or overestimated how much i burn in a typical day. never really tried to diet before, i kind of thought it'd be a cinch but it looks like if i really do want to lose weight i'll have to make some actual changes other than cutting out sweets. this should come as a surprise to no one, myself included. new target is 1700kcal/day, including 180g of protein. that leaves roughly 1000kcal from fats and carbs. okay.

^^^9.3oz is heavy, part of the reason adarq started wearing NSWRs is because of how light they are. i realize that 4-5oz difference doesn't seem like much but it's on your feet. i feel totally different in clunkier shoes and so have been wearing as light as possible shoes for years now.

jesus h. christ. stuff like that is what i always think with the calisthenics people: oh, that's neat. every single olympic or even national-level gymnast can do all that stuff in their sleep.

smart. smart smart smart. i have a 401k through work (have since i was 21) but only really started feeding into it a few years ago. i only put in $4800/year but i'm about to get a huge raise* and will both bump my contribution to the 401k (or i may roll it into a roth IRA, need to talk to someone about that) and start contributing to a non-retirement index fund portfolio.

*got promoted, and think i'll get promoted again and then be working overseas and not paying federal income taxes...heyooooo.

yeah it was with the vest. vest is still only 10 lbs, though.

4677
WEIGHT: 187.6 (172.8)
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: left ankle a little (?)
MENTAL STATE: good

- warm up

- KB swing 60 x 10,10

- squat 325 x 1,1,1,1; paused 205 x 3,3
strong as fork, weight was flying, especially on reps 1 and 3.

- BB hip thrust 205 x 15,15

- hanging leg raise x 10; +5 x 6+4

- stretch

all available potential spaces for throws and bounds were occupied. so it goes.

4678
what did the coach say?

4679
WEIGHT: 187.2 (174)
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: low back a little, knees a little, right peroneal a little
MENTAL STATE: good, a little lethargic/low motivation

- warm up

- MB toss x 10
inconsistent but best throws were ~11 yards. i throw to the right, not sure if it's a hip twisting or torso or shoulder issue. putting left foot 1-2" in front of right makes for straight throws.

- DL bound x 4,3(F),4,4,4
inconsistent, fucked up the second set by kind of falling forward. but best two sets were 11+ yards, which is an improvement.

- squat 315 x 1,1
low back felt the first a little but second very strong

- SVJ x 5,5
second set much lower than first

- SL SVJ x 5,5/leg
inconsistent, which is good because it means on some of the jumps i'm getting a bit more coordinated

- backboard touch x 10,10
legs smoked, not jumping high enough for backboard so i just did these as reaching pogos

- one-step DLRVJ x 5,5/plant
maybe 29.5 on a couple LR plants, much less on all the others.

vest is hard.

right on, glad to hear you're on the mend. do play it safe, it's the winter. no sense in going all-out now if that means high injury risk.

what's an eccentric adductor raise? that seems like an oxymoron.
