Played touch rugby today for around 1 hour. It was a decent session, but the intensity wasn't very high. I worked up a sweat but there were only a couple of moments where I really felt fatigued. The weather was nice as well, which is always a bonus. Now that it's October it should start heating up going into summer.

I think rugby league pre-season starts in December.

Ben Cousins has really spiralled down the wrong path since retirement. The only time you ever hear about him now is when he's getting arrested, which seems to be a yearly occurrence. The crystal pistol is frying his brain.

My body had a few niggles today. I had the day off weights and went to a grass track and did a few sprints. Initially I didn't feel like doing anything because I felt 'sluggish' but after stretching a bit and warming up I got into it.

Jog-
2 laps

ME Sprints-
1x60m
3x100m
Didn't feel too bad.

It seems counter-intuitive but I think the mind is just wired like that. It's easier to be disciplined, train hard, lead a good lifestyle etc. when you're at the top of your game. It's when injuries and setbacks occur when the mental demons and temptations slip in. That's why mindset is such a huge deal and can make or break athletes.

Yeah all dribbling. I can't lob for shit. I've never been able to land a dunk of a self-lob because I've got unco timing and can't get the run up sorted.

I tried to sneak into the indoor court but all the courts had organised games going so I drove to an outdoor court. After going to an indoor court yesterday it is a lot better than outdoor courts especially with impact on the knees as I'm an overweight 1 leg jumper.
Shot around and did a few dunks for 30-45 minutes. I wasn't jumping as high as yesterday and most of the dunks were pretty weak.

Bench-
barx12
60x8
80x5
100x4
107.5x1 had no spotter but I'm fairly certain I could've got a 2nd rep if I attempted one
92.5x5x2
My left pec started feeling sore so I left it at that. I'm going to just go 7 days without benching to give my chest a bit of time to recover.

60x5
80x5
100x5
115x5x2
105x5

Chin Ups-

Pull Ups-

Edit- Went to an indoor court and played around for an hour. Did about 30 jumps. I was getting dunks on almost every attempt for my first 10 jumps. From jumps 10-20 the percentage dropped down to about 50% and by jumps 20-30 I was just too fatigued and was only getting around 1 in 4.

Nice work. A 9 second improvement in around a fortnight. Got to be pleased with that.

I'm feeling good today. A bit of soreness with calves, but the Achilles are feeling great. Once I knock off work the plan is to squat 122.5kg for 2 sets of triples. I'm going to change up and start doing box squats though to avoid plateauing. I don't really care if my form isn't 100% I just want to get up to squatting 3 plates and finally get a  :personal-record: Whether 3 plates squat is with a box squat or with a regular squat I really don't care.
