Silly Einstein and defining insanity as making an induction fallacy.

Noice article though.

thanks man.

ya it sounded cool though and somewhat applies.. ie, spinning your wheels by utilizing the same type of training over and over and over.

Damn, that's a high squat. I thought you were going just a couple of inches above parallel.

interesting that you actually felt refreshed though.. i've only had that happen a few times with such crappy sleep.. i understand the non-effected training session, but the feeling fresh part is weird.. maybe you had some crazy deep REM sleep in those 3 hours.

peace

I dunno why, maybe it's because I returned to a more normal waking pattern. I usually got up at 7:15 for school, and I always feel best getting up within an hour of that, naturally though, without alarms.

I inadvertantly tested some theory from this article. I slept for only 3 hours today, after being on a schedule of 9+ hours every day for the past couple of weeks. I didn't bother to go to sleep until 5am ( ) and only managed to sleep until 8am. I woke up feeling suprisingly refreshed, and ended up having a great session, PRing in every lift I attemped.

The session went like this, bold indicates a PR:

Drop Step Vert
30" Tie PR
31"
31.5"
30"
31.5"
Psyched about this!

Weights

Squat
Bar x 10 (44 lbs)
40 x 5 (88 lbs)
60 x 5 (132 lbs)
70 x 3 (154 lbs)
80 x 3 (176 lbs)
All nice deep, clean and easy reps. Good light day.

No ISOs todays as Wednesday is now a recovery day for squatting.

Dumbbell Row
20 x 8 (44 lbs)
32.5 x 5 (71.5 lbs)
45 x 7 (99 lbs)

Dips
BW x 6
+20 x 5 (44 lbs)

Dumbbell Curls (I figured my bicep strength was holding back my chinning progress)
10 x 6 (22 lbs)
14 x 8 (30.8 lbs)

1:04 is pretty fast for having dead calves and shin splints, you're gonna be flying when you can run fresh.

DAMN.
