damn you have a roman chair at home? if i ever move into a bigger house and can actually build out a home gym, that would be sick to have.

last week

- ski x 4 days (4-5 hours/day)

- treadmill run x 2 days

- strength circuits x 3 days

great fun until it took me 40 hours to get home because of three different perfectly timed storms in three different places, thousands of miles apart from each other. i am very tired.

Comments:

Bench press felt weak. The first set of 70x4 felt very difficult. 65x6 felt OK, then the second set with 65 felt difficult again. I just don't have enough "oomph" when I bench press - I don't find the right position to express my pressing.

Deadlifts were so-so but 110 kg is not that bad.

Run
- w/u
- 10 x (3' on / 1' off) [4:02 avg]
- c/d

13.02, 1:08:37

Lift
RDL, Rev Nordics, Pistol Squat, Curl, Lateral, Chins, Dips

Note

HR a little higher than normal, but that included w/u and RHR. Don't think I'm overtrained (feel rested, fresh, no notable niggles, energy is good). Just in a higher than usual work stress moment, plus interviewing for a new role at a place I'm pretty excited about, plus more insane family stuff. It's a bit much, really, but my support system is good so I'm getting through it.

 :personal-record: 30 days in a row of running! not a PR for most consecutive days of cardio (that is apparently 49 days from last July/August, but that as majority incline walking and such), but still, woop!

ETA: realised that the only day of the last 44 on which I did not run was one on which I got up at 4am to take a 14 hour flight 8 time zones east. Think this is functionally a 43 day streak then, imo.
