Bodyweight@session : ???
Soreness : ultra sore abductors, almost limping. legs all over very sore. arms too, mostly shoulders.
Injuries/aches : none

1½ hours full court basketball.
Almost 1 month since i last stepped on the hardwood. Surprisingly good condition overall despite being so sore. Was fast, with great endurance, strong.
Biggest surprise of all, i felt that vert was somehow improved. Got much more rebounds than usual, a few felt real high. Got a couple of blocks after a long time. But mostly, felt some spring under my feet.
No idea if i was really jumping higher or it was just how it felt though. Gotta do some rim jumps eventually to establish measurements and track progression/regression.

Injuries/aches : none

TREADMILL : 7km @ 52:00

I so much hate treadmill. But weather was like 2' Celsium / 90% humidity so opted out.
I don't get it. Running on treadmill at a 10kph(6:00 km pace) had me gassing out at around 1km ( +170bpm ) , even 8kph(7:30 km pace)  was pretty demanding ( +150bpm ).
In real running my set pace is around 5:50 now, 7:30 is impossibly slow and boring. The 'gas out at 1km' pace is in the 4:00 area.
Whatever, chose to ignore the numbers i was seeing, just run a bit above comfortable until i reached 7km. I'm sure it was a worthy workout.

Very good endurance and strength. Also vert is coming back a bit? Got some impressive blocks and rebounds. Maybe just good timing.
Overall enjoying it now, feels like i am at a very balanced fitness/strength level.

Nah. Quitting has been so effortless and without consequences that it enrages me i didnt do it earlier.
The weight gain is was intended, most of it, maybe 0.5 to 1 kg up from eating and drinking well without working out for 10 days ad Xmas holidays but that's all.

21 October 2019

Bodyweight@session : ~84kg
...
...

Ok i think i want to bulk a bit till Xmas. Pack some muscle. 3 weight days per week, 1 bball and 1 cardio. Then switch focus to running again, some nice races in spring.

I was sore and it was night and cold ( 5'C or so ) and humid and all , but i felt i had to run, to keep up with it, feel my body will forget how to run.
Wasn't nice though. That feeling of cold air on sweaty skin, not good. Ice cold air in lungs isn't that good either. Fuck winter!

Not much to report. Very good endurance. Strength/speed/explosiveness felt a bit off. Vert feels upgraded. Should try some jumps soon.

Garmin guys, do you also have that "Body battery" measurement thing? Is it any trustworthy? I only have my watch for 1 week, in the beginning that body battery worked as expected, going down in the day and going up at nights, but the last days it is stuck to 10% and it wont go up. Also, what about sleep quality? Watch says i sleep shit, although i do get almost 8 hours daily. Deep sleep is too low and im also "under pressure" the whole time so im not resting well. Arte those any trustworthy or should i ignore them ( or at least take them with a -good- pinch of salt? ).
