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

- warm up

- jumps x a bunch, out to four-step
huge milestone, about three strong dunks with size 3 soccer ball. the ball i'd been using is really deflated but this one isn't, much harder to cheat to get the ball down hard.

- squat 315 x 2,2; 190 x 20
fun.

- superset x 4,5,6,5,4
-- assisted natural GHR
-- pull up
-- DB OHP x 50s (45s on last set)

- decline sit up 30 x 10

- stretch

weird, why do you think the shoulder work hurts so much? i wouldn't think it's directly fatiguing to the back and other than stabilizing the bar your shoulders and chest aren't directly involved in the squat.

fwiw, the SL-DL gap for me used to be like yours, 10" or something. then i started doing lots of layups a few times a week as a warm up. submax jumps but not low-effort. the gap is more like 5-6" now, and my DL jump has gone up in the past two months. food for thought.

practice matters, as we all know.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right knee kind of bad
MENTAL STATE: okay

- shoot around

- a few submax jumps

terrible. knee hurt, shot was way off probably because bending me knees was so uncomfortable, no pop at all, handles even more embarrassingly bad than usual. at least i had the place to myself. glad i went and moved around but otherwise this was shitty.

yeah vag, get with the program. all the cool kids are doing high volume now. it's not like you're PR'ing once a week with your current set up.

I ended up taking 6 melatonin tablets (!) last night and I still couldn't feel sleepy. Apparently training wires up my CNS so much that it made them completely ineffective. 2 nights before when i took the supplement for the first time, 5 tablets totally knocked me out. My star burns so bright in the gym, i know lifting heavy 3x a week isn't sustainable but i dont know any other way. I am hungry for success. Today and yesterday have been good diet days so far. Somewhere along the lines i found discipline but lost others.

Melatonin doesn't work like that.  It doesn't have anywhere close to a linear response.  In fact more melatonin can make you feel less sleepy.  Why are you taking 6x the amount of something?

lol.

could not fall asleep last night and slept fitfully once i did. made the call to go back to sleep when my jumping alarm went off and ended up being a little late to work, even. need to figure this sleep thing out, it's been a problem the last few weeks.

i was at a dinner party with some people who had young kids. i tried to teach a ten-month-old boy named fifth april* the words to "solidarity forever." he did amazingly well for someone so young, although he was more interested in chewing on his shirt than repeating "dodidarity" after me.

*no idea.
