WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: hamstrings a little
ACHES/INJURIES: left shoulder a little
MENTAL STATE: tired

- warm up
jog 2km in 10:10. heart rate up a bit but this was not challenging.

- depth jump ~18-20 x 3,3,3
first and third sets were better. second set clunky landings, was overthinking.

- SVJ x 4,4

- pogo x 5,5,5

- stretch

finished work very late and then couldn't find my shorts, which i'd sent down with my laundry this morning. i should have just forgotten about it til tomorrow and just done some shit in my room, but i called the front desk to find them and an incredibly stupid saga ensued. so i ended up getting to the gym 10 minutes before it closed, doing that jog you see there, and working out in my room anyway. and it's late as hell now and the most important/insane day of my trip is tomorrow.

 :highfive: :headbang:

note to self: reintroduce a bit of feldenkrais (or pseudo-feldenkrais), especially on non-workout days. my lower back went from tight and aching to smooth and awesome-feeling last night with a bit of making-it-up-as-i-went pelvic stuff. low back, neck, shoulders, and arms all feel nice today.

streak broke tonight. went out for dinner with colleagues and got home too late to go to the gym. could not fail to do either thing, out of politeness to people i need to have a good relationship with.

did some feldenkrais (shoulders and neck) and SMR (quads, adductors, calves, soleus) and long stretching session but that does not a workout make.

i will half-forgive myself if i manage to work out twice on any day between now and when i head home.

yes you are both right. i'm being an idiot.

the depth jumps sucked, except for one or two where i put it together.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: left shoulder a little
MENTAL STATE: okay

- warm up

- depth jump @10" x 3,3; @18" x 3,3

- DB step up 26s x 10
stupid, not challenging enough for legs relative to grip

- BB complex x 4
-- half squat 40 x 10
-- good morning 40 x 10
no reset between half squat and good morning, 60-90s rest between sets.

- cable glute thrust x 10,10

- stretch

the gym sucks, i'm still trying to figure out what i can do effectively in it. especially for legs.

yeah the 80s aren't bad. 100kg just looks too heavy for you right now, you don't have the stability in your hips or back to lower the weight all the way down. may not even be a question of leg strength, just technique and organization to keep stuff rigid enough to complete the full movement.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: traps a little, hamstrings a little

MENTAL STATE: still pretty tired

- walk x 3 hours

...3.5 hours later...

- warm up
did 30/30 alternating jump rope and a bunch of different bw stuff for about 12 minutes. different from the usual, kind of liked it.

- superset x 3
-- SVJ x 3
-- DB jump squat 6s x 3
+ SVJ x 3

- double under intervals 10/20 x 8
tough, could not finish the last couple sets of double unders because the bounce was no longer there. not good, i think about that video of nightfly doing 1000 ankle hops and smh.

- stretch

this forum is so damn valuable to me as a motivator. i said i'd try to work out 15/17 days, and so tonight even though i REALLY didn't feel like doing it, i made myself get up to the gym and do SOMETHING because saying, "i'm super tired and so i figured the three-hour walk would cover my workout today," sounded pathetic coming out of my fingers. even if that something was wonky and haphazard, it was better than nothing. accountability: it's what's for dinner.

I Was Ready to Give Up. Then I Saw this INCREDIBLE Powerade Commercial And I Knew I Had to Keep Going!

i like it man. no plans or intentions are worth anything if you can't do them. 45-50 minutes in the morning, with a pretty specific focus, sounds doable. and i bet you'll make more progress than you expect!

interesting self-lob technique on the two-hander there.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: very tired

- jog x 2 km
incredibly slow, 9km/hour. lungs not challenged but legs felt heavy. maybe spend some time over the next couple weeks building up to a 30-minute 5k. my work capacity is shite, as discussed. not gonna hurt to do a little LISS. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

- stretch

- work traps with lacrosse ball.

so jet lagged, mind not working very well, did this mainly to keep awake a bit longer and to not fuck myself immediately in my quest to work out 15 of the next 17 days.
