BW: 80.4 (sad face)

damn it renovations continue to disrupt my saturday trainings i didnt sleep much more than a few hours .. they came in pretty early and that was the end of my restorative supplementation. Just did a strugglesome ohp workout where i did the slowest hardest to lock out triple ever .. i prob wud have given up on it but i didnt wanna in a public gym setting.

shud i try rest up tongith and then crack squats tmr? i dont like to delay workouts tho .. it just makes for a chaotic week tryna catch up. will see how we go..

 

forgot to mention, warmups i thew up the biggest tomahawk for the winter. i cant tell whether it was b/c i jumped high or i hit hard, or both, but it felt amazing. so even with all this squat induced fatigue. sprained ankle last wk etc and my inflating bodyweight, i can still get up to near enough PR levels. or i shud i say local PR cos i prob jumped higher in the summer when i was a lot lighter but pretty cool

may schedule a dunk session and tape soon

BW: 80.3kg (i think, maybe it was 80.4kg though)

Notes:
Wasnt sure where to do an abbreviated workout or not with the final tonight but i just did it and cut the last set of quarter squats. lol. I switched to the thicker bar for quarter squats .. so much better, i can actually unrack and rack the bar at correct height instead of having to use the lower hole, which is necessitated by the newer bar which is flexy as fuck. I think a lot of lifts which need heavier weight (>150kg) i shud prob just use the older bar. it sucks but it sucks less cos it's stiff and holds its shape well which feels better on the back.

just a note in passing, my form is really bad right now .. but i want to get somewhere half decent before turning to volume with lighter weight to sort out form and get stronger. im gambling a bit here .. it shud be ok, i think doubling 140kg with a belt with shit form will get me strong enough to use 127.5kg for volume, and if i am patient with that, i shud be able to correct form sufficiently to advance towards my year end goal of 6x2x150kg .. (yes this is the first time im nentioning it). And finally this is my ultimate squat goal -- 6x2x160kg @ 80kg before the 2017 tournament during easter break.

will do a quick push press, jump squat sessh before the game. idk if i mentioned but we sneaked into the finals as the weakest team.. 4th seed, playing the unbeaten 1st seed. so it's going to be a difficult game but lets see how we go.

BW: 80.1kg ...

it still crazy to me how i was finally getting in the low 78kgs / high 77kgs and now im back over 80kg  ... kinda bummed out how quickly i gained the weight. to be honest the binges are only part of the problem .. i was eating to make up for life stuff .. if it wasn't mentioned .. but im going to try avoid repeating that again.

i think i need to jettison the prolonged fasting (18hrs) though. it's unworkable. i just sit there on my desk thinking about how hungry i am and counting the hours til i can eat. Not good. i would like to be able to focus and work. so the plan is there, get back on track towards 77kg then eat 2-3 meals a day while making them nutritious and training supportive

it's funny though, how if we're on some kind of fasting diet/nutritional plan that makes us really hungry, that by not eating we are perhaps displaying "discipline".. but in the same respect, if we're tired and don't take naps and/or aren't getting enough sleep, it's a problem.

I guess in general if we're starting to eat healthier & in smaller portions, but become very hungry, that is more along the lines of being disciplined to clean things up.. but for ~18 hour fasts/IF etc ... is it really discipline at that point? or are we simply not listening to our bodies?

being very hungry just sucks.

i agree that you shud listen to your body but homostatis is not necessarily good for performance, esp when you have a long way to go from where you are and where you want to be athletically. 18hr fasts suck though. esp after doing them for a long time .. well a couple of months anyway

competition is legit. i was gone by minute two or three. no fitness. players are all really good and im easily the weakest player on the court! the best news is that the scoring system is easy to understand and so i dont mind sitting on the bench and doing that compared to other comps.

positives, im playing on dead legs and training fatigue .. a few moves i got stripped on, i prob pull off if i was fresher. so theres that, but there is always that, it's not good enough. i shud be playing well even fatigued .. i cant rely on that

15" biceps is an interesting tertiary goal, i kind of like it as long as it doesn't mean you switch to doing nothing but curlzzz for your upper body.

stay tuned for this wks mr O weekend, im going to put up some scooby iinspired pics to show off my consistent curling of once a fortnight for the last 6 wks. Dont mean to spoil, but i may be dangerously close of finally getting outta 12" bicep club

lmao .. what happened here, seems awesome tho, will read properly later. shame of the weekend behind, tryna get back on track this monday morning. what a shitshow. my legs look massive but im sure it's just carbs. stepped on the scales and it read 80.5kg so i guess that tells you all you need to know how sunday went ..yikes.

just a note in passing, the squat mornings from saturday made my glutes SOO sore.. which was kinda suprising but i'll take it..

OHP 2x2x60, 4x3x60
BS 6x120, 5x3x120(LPR)

BW: ?

Notes
house renovations and my home gym being out of commision means i had to join a gym. sucks. but on a day where i wanted to skip everything, i forced a pretty hard workout of squats. im sorry to anyone who had to witness my horrible squat mornings .. it's not you it's me. i only slept 4 hours, etc etc.
