* slept 8:30pm-1:00am-5:30am. lots of sleep is good but my BW drops to 194 because of the longer fasting. increase rice this morning to 3 cups. if im not at dry 196lb again when i wake up later, might not even go for rep 12 of 24 of the 455x1. don't want to burn out now.

* 405x1 not as effortless as it should be. 455x1 would be too heavy for today. got the 440x1 again from a complete pause. my 196BW did not cut it today. need to be in the wet 196-200 to feel strong for a daily 455x1. i did not feel strong enough but not weak either. did the backoff 425s.

* got good sleep again. 8:30pm-1:30am-5:30am. my BW is staying in the 194s lately. i have to ride this out and wait until i start gaining weight again. top sets of 440x1 (~2.25BW) and backoff of 425x1 (2.2BW) repeatedly until i get to the dry 198BW. that makes these 440/425 a relatively easier lift (2.2BW / 2.15BW) and hopefully get some supercompensation going again.

* just did the squats in my company gym. too many people and felt lazy waiting to do my other lifts. will do them next workout
* 405x1 was very strong. i was at 195BW before the workout. did not have the confidence to put the 25lb in there at this weight. i paused the 440x1 like it was a warmup set.  could have had the 455x1. il still stick to the plan of waiting it out until my BW improves to the mid-high 190s.
* did not feel tired at all. i will eat stronger for the next 2 meals and at 5:00-6:00pm tmrw, if my BW improves, il go for the 455x1 12 of 24.

* BW196. overpowered the 405x1 easily. got my 455x1 12 of 24. halfway there. another 2lb and at 198BW, i should blast through this remaining 12 singles. concentric was smooth but not warmup-type smooth as this 455 still felt like a very heavy weight.

* not so bad for a work night. the 2x singles of the 405 works well to get me a heavy top set. first single of 405 feels a lot heavier than the 2nd single. 440x1 after does not feel very heavy at all. backoffs to 315s. will not get a post workout sleep until 14hours from it. not good if i overexert doing singles of 425s.

* slept 10:30pm-4:00am-6:30am. BW looking good at consistent 198-200lb lately. will maintain a top 440x1, 425x1 backoffs while i stabilize at this weight. might try to do 2 sets of 440x1 top set if the first paused rep feels not so heavy. 455x1 1-2x / week whenever i feel strongest.
* i'm very happy with my weight gain to 198-200lb. i can still see my abs. the veins in my lower abs are not visible anymore but thats not a big thing to me. IMO, i was able to add mass and keep fat gain to a minimum by gaining weight in clusters of 4-6lbs. gain..stabilize..gain.. caloric excess eating brown rice + chicken/sardines + foods mostly with a 1:1 carb/protein.. (almonds etc.)

* comparing my workouts to last week's, i was able to get up to 440x1 even on a single workout a day. i was able to do this at 4:30pm. this is after eating at 8:30-8:45am, and sleeping 9:00am-3:45pm. need to be feed within the last 5hours, and get decent sleep. i was weak this morning even with almost 10 hours of sleep. i was fasted for more than 12 hours. this is planned. the strong meal that follows gets me going for later. the fasting helps with my BF.

* BW still consistent in the 198-200lb. shifting focus on the backoff sets as the 440x1 stict pause rep is routine max anyway. the 455x1 is still too heavy at this time for a stict pause.

* first single of the 425 following the 440 felt heavier than usual. will burn out if i forced another 425x1. just did the 405s. no problem getting 4 singles. my calves are getting thicker with these 20 straight reps. it takes me ~ 60-65 secs to complete 20 paused reps calf raises. reps 18-20 is not comfortable at all. still strict pauses, just painfull at that point.

* resting and also not very strong. sub 7 hour sleep for the last 2 days. calves getting stronger and getting used to the 20 rep loading. did 4 sets of 20s today and it got easier after each set. i can go 20x5 sets at this pace comfortably.
* 2nd rep of the 405x1 usually becomes noticably easier than the first, then i go for the 440x1. 2nd 405x1 today felt the same as the first. first rep was surprisingly not very heavy but it did not improve much from there. BW is good at 198-202lb. lack of sleep/rest and the compounded beating from the 440s from last last few days... need to freshen a little.

Paused Reps, Top / Bottom Holds
BW x10 - straight set

* took a 11:30-2:30pm midday nap after breakfast. body still feeling off from the irregular sleep pattern. 315-365 felt a lot lighter than this morning but the 405x1 did not improve much again. i'l get my rhythm again tmrw. this wed-fri work night forced deload can't all be that bad.
* the 7-plate calf raise leg press hits the spot. i will rep x20s up to 5 sets or until i cannot get the straight set anymore. i was at 14+6 on todays 2nd set. took a few seconds reset.
