made the journey to the gym, only to realise that it was closed due to public holidays, and will be so for the weekend.

pissed, went and met some friends for some pickup. got abt 2 inches above on 1st attempt, 2nd attempt bad timing. no more tries heh heh.

fuck, i just tried it once like 5 mins ago, finger on neck.
abt 60 beats for 1 min. damn  :(

620
i'll be going for lower A in a few hours time, after i knock off.

i did 4 x 8 for squats last week, is the 3 x 8 a typo?
i think i'll go by feel, if i feel alright mayb i'll do 4 sets.

621
haha, no man, i think i def can get 32DB bench, if there are any!
HAHAHA, now i see the confusion. when i said max DB of 30, i meant that the heaviest DB there is only 30kg!

622
i think i'll take a pic sometime soon, the added few kg of mass is something i've never had.

623
adarq, post next week's work eh?

also, for the lunges, im thinking of dropping weight to 25/28, and mayb adding in another set or rep in each set. cos my grip keeps giving out. also, i feel my hams and quads, but i dun really feel my glutes all that much. whats up with that? not deep enough?

for those DB paused bench, can i sub it with BB? cos max DB is 30kg. or should i add set/reps?

i hate not jumping as high as i think i can, seeing how all my lifts are going up.

just gotta believe that what im doing is working and keep at it though.

people keep telling me to do plyos, and while i also see the need to incorporate that, they were saying that i should do plyos exclusively. they dun understand that what got me those inches was the weight room, and when i did some air alert shit in the past, while it got me to barely the rim, it also gave me pretty bad knees.

625
that pickup ball idea was bad.
wet body + airconditioned gym later = uncomfortable tummy = feeling like shit

couldnt resist tho, havent touched a ball for like 2 weeks.

if GPP phase is abt incrementing fatigue and deepset fatigue levels, then i think im doing it right haha.
i normally get by with abt 5-6 hours of sleep a day, but these days at work, when we all go out for tea breaks, i often fall asleep at the coffee table.

felt great at the beginning of the ball game, thought i'd be pretty alright, but felt tired when attacking the rim. hahha.

abt the knee, just found a bruise on the knee.
so part of the pain most probably came from that.
just remembered my colleague had wheeled his chair into me days before that post.
