Notes

Everything solid enough.

in the same boat re: having to move, although in our case it's because our landlady is selling our house. sad because we've loved this place but we are starting to get excited, too. good luck! where are y'all looking to live?

Ah that's annoying -- landlords suck!

We're going to stay in London, but beyond that we're not too fussed about area tbh. We're both mostly WFH, so our main restriction is proximity to stuff we like to do, and just like being able to find a place that suits us, moreso than location.

makes sense. same for us regarding priorities, with the addition that (1) we like being kind of in the geographical middle of our friends, (2) being close to the metro is critical because when we do commute, that's how, and (3) we are trying to have a kid, so it'd be nice to be near a good pre-k/elementary school. although, given that we lasted less than two years in this place before getting kicked out, (3) is a relatively low priority.
Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

BW - 71.8

Notes

Zombie mode today. Didn't do any "proper" cardio, but took a long, brisk walk that probs worked out to a similar energy cost.


Sleep has been not great quality, but still around ~8 hours. So, probably a combo of diet + training fatigue. Will take an easy day of lifting tmrw and see how I feel on Fri. If still rekt, may take a diet break for a week.

Ah yeah, being near a tube stop is our one big criterion as well. Hopefully having relatively fledixle restraints means we both have an easy time searching!

BW - 71.6 [woop]

Notes

Going to take a few days off training and also goign to eat at maintenance. Only deload I've done in 2024 was that one at the start of this month, which was barely a deload (combing back and push+legs into one session, only did like 30% fewer sets and RPE was still pretty high), and I've been pushing the diet pretty hard, so psychological and physical fatigue are piled up.

Reminding myself that there's no need to push super so hard -- I'm not on a deadline and I'm doing this for fun ultimately.

Feels good to lift again. Before planning this little deload, i didn't think about the fact I'm away for 4 nights at the end of this week, so guess I'm getting back-to-back rests.

Nice, one more rep with your old PR while weighing 5 kg less and being older.

Thanks, yeah v happy with it. I think lots of PRs are coming on that lift because I haven't included it regularly for a while. Also, I'm only 30, so I hope I'm at least 10 years away from age being a meaningful factor in strength PRs...
