Mon/Tues 12.5hr night shifts.

Yesterday slept 3 hours in the day then ran 5km 28mins easy recovery run as my body hurt after the 11 miles.

Lifted after went pretty well dips (40kg x 7)/weight chins (a good 20kg x 6) and some bb stuff - face pulls/flys/curls/tris

Today tried to squat did 90kg x 5 and my si joint said no, my hips were tight af and all of my muscles just felt off. I'm getting really tired of this crap. I sacrifice my evening to train to come home miserable and in pain.

I'm gonna make one more push to sort this focusing on loosening my hip flexor, strengthening my deep abdominal muscle control and making my glutes alive. If this keeps happening I'm probably just going to call it a day with squats.

Squat 95kg 3 x 5
Deadlift 140kg x 5

Did some jumps, hit this roof at the gym. First time properly jumping in easily over a year. Still at 32" plus, at my best jumping I was only getting a couple inches higher so I'm pretty surprised I still have that, prolly can still dunk. If i can build my squat up and keep my weight down then I might have to destroy some rims come summer  :trolldance:

Had 3 super stressful days at work, 12.5 hr days with literally no breaks. Then got a puncture on my way home and had to walk my bike for like an hour lol. There is literally no time to do anything else in these days, it sucks.. Gym is out of the question if I want to sleep >6 hrs.

So needed some fun today, headed out to a local Reservoir and just ran

14.4km in 1hr 17m 44s

Avg 5:22 1k split

Totally destroyed after but it was super fun. Again it was a minor side stitch holding my pace back for the first 10k or so, the last few km was pretty rough terrain which was super fun but slowed me down a little.

By far the furthest I have ever ran haha, super enjoyed it. We've had great February weather so it was like 18c blue skies and a light breeze, just perfect for running.

 :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: :ibrunning:

awesome man.

you have such beautiful areas to run as well. man i'd be in heaven in that environment hah.

I really need a car and areas like this would be really accessible for me. I live in the middle of the city and there's now where to run off my doorstep, but there's some incredible spots ~30m by train away.

Running outside in these environments is sooo much easier. Maintainimg 12km/h feels so draining on a treadmill but it just flys by outside.
