Saw the osteo. Gave me a good working over and pretty much everything was tight. She loosened me up starting from the feet and did some major work through the lower to mid back. She thinks I've got a left rotator cuff strain. She's advised I lay off the overhead work and cleans for the next couple of days. I'll be doing that. Will still be able to squat and DL. Handstand work can take the place of any overhead pressing. Will pencil in a massage too in the next couple of weeks. Have heaps of benefit limits to use on my private health before the end of the year so might as well get the most out of it.

Body is feeling a bit beat up. Left shoulder and right hip/lower back. Off to see the osteo this morning though which should help. Squats felt great though. I know 80 isn't heavy but I feel like it's laying some good ground work for later on. Pretty excited for next weeks programming. It changes up a fair bit and I get to back squat on Tuesday next and build up to a heavy single. Will be interesting to see how that goes.

20/10/15

Ball game. Semi final. We played a team we drew with once (I didn't play) and then beat (with two tall fill-ins). We won by 10. Our defense was great. Stopped a lot of shots, changed a lot of shots and locked down the perimeter.  I had 8 points but by far my best play of the game was a drive past two players on the baseline and a no look dish to the other big guy coming down the middle of the lane for an easy two. My worst play of the game was a missed dunk right at the end. The last 30s was junk time and I hung out back got it at the 3 point line with no one in front and the ball slipped out of my hands on the way up. Hadn't really expected much as I haven't played or dunked in about 3 weeks so not too worried.

We play the GF next week which will probably be my last game. I don't have the time or the drive to train and play a higher grade and although I really enjoy it and they're a great group of guys I'm going back to hapkido. It's a skill that I can learn and get better at which has applications outside of training too. Will be sad to stop, again, but I think it's for the best. Will hopefully pick up a few fill in games though just to keep my toe in the water.

maybe overstretching/stretching too aggressively? i have done that in the past (years ago).

Yep. I think so. Have started doing Jefferson Curls and just maybe that in combination with the lifting every day got me. As much as I hated missing the 3 days I feel much better now and am adapting pretty well so far.

Mobility Circuit
Lying pike
Hang from bar
Lunge + T-Spine  rotation
Table stretch
Supported cosack squat

Weightlifting (10-15 min)
A. Snatch RS5 bar snatch combo, 30 x 3, 40 x 1, 1, 1, 1, 1

C. Deadlift - 1 rep every 20 sec at 70%+5kg for 3 sets total 80 x 5, 125 x 1, 1, 1- meant to be 115 but I calculated wrong. I'm blaming it being 5.45am when I was deadlifting for the error
D. Standing press - 2 reps every minute at 70%+2.5kg for 2 sets total 42.5 x 2, 2, 2


Gymnastics work - (20 minutes, start a new set each minute)

E2. 5-10 sec Tuck planche - easy progression (work at a RPE of 7 or less) x4- left shoulder bugging

H. Front Splits progression - Rear knee taps 3x10 each side, front leg bent for beginners, straight for advanced. 3x10

Felt like I'd missed a whole week of training being out of the gym for 3 days. Glad to be back. Gradually getting the hang of some of this stuff and although the gymnastics stuff will take me ages I'm actually looking forward to the process.

Cannot believe I miscalculated the DLs. 125 felt like 150 but I was too lazy to change it back afterwards so did the 3 sets at 125. Will drop back to 115 tomorrow.

Week 1- Day 5, 6 & 7= no go

Had some serious lower back and right hip tightness/pain going on. Haven't felt this bad for about 7-8 years. Have averaged about 35-40 mins of SMR and stretching each day. Quad hip combo stretch gave me the best relief so far.

First day of new program. Was at the gym at 5.05am. Early which felt weird but it's done and out of the way which is great.

nice! should be interesting. Seems like these workouts will be packed with a ton of stuff and unconventional set/rep/rest schemes.

Yes it definitely seems that way. I have the first 30 days which is quite similar but can see what they're currently doing and it seems to be ever changing. Think I'm going to enjoy it.

Going to be interesting with the Justa method though. It builds to 15 sets of FS, DL and OHP on the last day of the week.
