WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: hams, glutes, quads, lats, lower traps
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: tired
STOPWATCH: ???

- warm up

- DLRVJ x ~12
trainer dude who pointed out that i was tilted on my squats asked if i wanted some advice after my first four-step jump, which was a horror show. soreness+tiredness+lack of focus=31". i said, no, and he kept smiling and kind of said, "really?" and i said, "really, but thanks for the offer." and then i jumped 33.5-34.5 the rest of the time with maybe one at 35. prick. i was mad at his smugness so i hung on the rim each jump. dumb. my shoulder is still not fully healed it's not that bad anymore.

- stretch

- DB swing 45 x 12; 50 x 10,10

- more stretching quads, hams and glutes

- squat 195 x 21
not good, lower back pump serious, endurance bad. harder than 230 yesterday in a way. i might drop the weight next week and do 185 or something.

- stretch

fuck that asshole. my squats aren't even that bad.

the tim in vermont one rep max calculator gives me an estimated max of 395 thanks to my 230x16 performance yesterday. this shows how useless those calculators are, at least at higher reps.

re: the front squat, you're a bit wobbly on the way up and dip your elbows and torso forward before you recover, but it's a PR lift so it's kind of hard to say whether that's a general thing or just because this was especially hard. do you have vid of submax sets?

squat looking solid. dunno how i feel about your neck, seems a bit hyperextended, but that maybe not such a big deal.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: ITB a bit tight on both sides
MENTAL STATE: good
STOPWATCH: 09

- warm up

- depth jump @16" x 4,4

- DLRVJ build ups x 3 (one, two, three, four-step)

- squat MSEM 285 x 6

- squat MEBM 230 x 16+4
had to rack the bar after 16 reps, rested about 30s and then did four more to get to 20. safety first.

- push ups x F (40)

- kroc row 80 x F (23/side)

- pull up x 7,5,5
to make up the different between kroc reps and push ups

- stretch

good workout, pushed myself a bit harder than usual which is something i should be doing more of. 40 pushups is almost definitely a PR.

the one-handed catches vid is insane. he's not even trying, if they had a machine pitching him the balls at a higher rate he'd have caught more.

what did he do last fall?

basically he announced in a crazy internet-training-guru-style advertising page that, while most people had known him as an expert on nutrition and training, he'd been living a double life as a gonzo pornographer and was going to release a tell-all book (and maybe videos? or something?) about his experiences. he's obviously since taken it down, but it was pretty obvious even at the time and even from the remove that i have from him -- i've been a member of his "secret" forum for years but never a major poster and i've only had a little personal contact with him -- that something wasn't right. the grandiosity, the verboseness made it seem like a manic or at least hypomanic episode. and i'd suspected for years that he was at least depressive. bipolar makes perfect sense.

had more than usual but not a ton of alcohol last night, 6-7 drinks total, all beer. was absolutely crippled today. vomiting, weakness, headache well into the afternoon. took a nap this afternoon, which i basically never do. no booze tonight, lots of sleep, hope for hard workout tomorrow.

watched a track meet on TV after my nap. made me want to go run.

uh, aren't you the same height as me? your reach is probably a little higher because i've got shortish arms but not THAT much higher. i touch 7'6 standing still, which means bottom of palm at rim is about 35-36".

very slow, legs dead. did not even attempt DLRVJ, would have been ugly. left shoulder bothering me a little bit, need to take it easy. it's so close to being healed. good that i forced myself up and to the gym even if this wasn't much of a workout. rhythm's gotta start somewhere.

- stretch
