last night:

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = area surrounding lateral side of left elbow
FATIGUE = low to moderate

- warm up

- bench 5 x 185, 3 x 195, 3 x 205

- pull ups 5 + 10, 3 + 15, 6 + 20

- SS1: OHP 10 x 65
- SS1: BOW 10 x 65
- SS1: x 3

- SS2: MB slam 10 x 14
- SS2: L-sit x 20s
- SS2: x 2

- stretch

the elbow pain/discomfort was back last night after not being a problem at all the day before. did some digging around in there and it feels alright this morning. hopefully it's not going to turn into some nagging bullshit like it did last fall.

I GOT A PROMOTION AND A BIG-ASS RAISE. 

 

that is all. workout tonight will be upper and core only.

fuck yeah.

trying to figure out what's next

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = low to moderate

- warm up

- DSVJ/DLRVJ x ~15-18
awful, just truly awful. so frustrated.

- sprint 4 x 10y

- skip for height 3 x 8

- foam roller ITB, hamstrings, calves

- front squats x a bunch with very little weight

- power snatch 8-10 x 65, 4-5 x 75, 4-5 x 95
guessing on the reps, didn't really count. failed on a couple of the 95's cause i was thinking too hard. technique still bad, not getting enough pop in my hips. on the bright side, 95 is super easy. also on the bright side, it's my first time power snatching in many moons.

- squat 5 x 245
so, so weak. oh well, build from here. might go back to my old MSEM 2 x 3 one day, MSEM 1 x 6 the other day. liked that. why did i ever switch off that block. idiot.

- foam roller quads
ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow ow

- stretch
focus on rectus femoris and calves

i've rarely been more discouraged than i was while jumping today. it just felt so slow and i couldn't muster up anything better. no difference between DSJV and DLRVJ in terms of height.

basically, i need to think about my vacation like an injury, and the last month or so like time spent coming off an injury. shit happens and the only thing to do is regroup, come up with a decent plan, and keep grinding.

I hate Harden, so I love this. Incidental contact. Protect yourself at all times.

what? why do you hate harden?

Because I just do. I hate him, Rip Hamilton, Chauncey Billups, Ben Wallace, Tim Duncan, Manu Flopobili, Rashit Wallace, Bruce Bowen, Meta World Piss and a few others I can't think about right now. Basically floppers and people with no talent that are just annoying and like to wreck other peoples' games by just fouling and saying "they're good defenders".

CHASE POWERLIFTING RECORD. you'll probably never be an olympic decathlete, but having a chance to set a national record is too good to pass up. give it a year and then re-assess.

then, decathlon.

friday:

BW = ???
SORENESS = none
ACHES/INJURIES = none
FATIGUE = low to moderate

- warm up

- squat 3 x 3 x 300, 1 x 300

- stretch

nagging elbow pain from last fall, which had gone away entirely, came back. plus i was just not feeling this. could certainly have finished the fourth set, speed was still fine, but going ten sets just seemed like a terrible idea even if i could have gotten there. pissed because this should not have been a super hard workout. but elbow pain + insufficient recovery = fuck it. i rested yesterday (as rx'd) and today (though i was supposed to work out).

now that i think about it, trying to do smolov again is retarded unless i'm prepared to eat like a 16-year-old and sacrifice jumping. and i don't want to sacrifice jumping, jumping is the whole goddamn point. someday i would like to have a truly decent squat, but that does not have to be right now. i should be focused on jumping, speed, and explosiveness. also, fuck this stupid elbow pain, my whole arm felt like someone had punched me in the tricep all evening on friday and most of yesterday. been digging into some trigger points and stretching but it has not gone all the way away.

going to regroup and come up with a better plan. i love squatting to the point where it's gotten in the way.
