Felt very tired - I have problems sleeping due to neck and thoracic pain. During my bench pressing I started feeling really bad, thoracic pain, some dizziness and a feeling of overall weakness. So I stopped at 2 sets with 50. The weight is so light but doing many reps (over 6) for me is very difficult.

First workout in 1 month - I initially wanted to do calisthenics only but I played a bit in the park and didn't like how weak I was feeling so I'm going back to the gym. I don't think the calisthenics are a stimulus good enough for my leg strength. Currently having back right knee pain, neck pain, left hip pain and some lowerback pain.

oh shit i missed that it was your birthday! happy birthday, young fella! 

Aww thank you. I was seek this week and didn't train. Also, my neck and upperback chronic pain is bad.

Did my squats in an athletic stance. 120 was wider but looks explosive. Here's the video of it: https://youtube.com/shorts/daXkRzPXIwY?si=IcdN6n9yxVOmsxaP

I got really tired from so many squats, the 110x4 set was pretty good, too. Focus must be on losing weight, since I'm now 31.

Sorry, I meant 41

Wouldn't this drive you into the ground neurally speaking?

Comments:

I thought I've done 70x6x3 in the past but apparently not, so I thought I wasn't that good in the bench press but it turns out it was an all time , even though I haven't benched since 18th December 2025, almost a month ago! Who knew? RDLs were pretty easy, although I was limited by grip strength. Wall sits felt nice and made my legs shake and although I was tired muscularly after them, I felt "strong" while walking, like they "woke up" my legs.
