 :personal-record: in the bench press - decided to do less sets, just 3, so I don't overtrain. I feel like I don't recover well as my sleep is usually interrupted. Squat was good but difficult from a heart rate/cardio perspective, felt overwhelming.

Still, the leg press quad+calf high rep sets were good. Also did some stretching.

Amazing workout -  :personal-record: in the bench press and amazing quad activation during the high bar squats and leg presses. I also did reverse hyper for the first time on the regular hyper machine. The leg press calf raises were bombs, too.

This while going lower in bodyweight.

Knee pain so I switched to low bar. Despite the long pause, I could squat well. I recorded my top set, but by the looks of it I could do 130 kg or so right now.

Went in the park, played some ball, filmed a dunk on the small, 2.90m rim (9'6).

Here it is:

Went in the park, played some 3-on-3 at the small rim (2.90 or 9.6) and after that threw down three dunks on it on three attempts. Pretty good.

Comments:

Great squatting, felt very leg dominated. Also felt the right quad engaged in the movement. But I feel kind of weak right now after coming back home, like I overtrained myself. Found a guy that played hockey, just 22 years old, and spoke about a bunch of stuff.

There is something wrong with me health-wise, every time I do certain movements I feel like there's a "tickling" in my body, in my chest, in my neck, like something is wrong "inside".
