Progress Journals & Experimental Routines / Re: a fast and explosive donkey!
« on: July 03, 2013, 01:33:42 pm »GOOD NEWS EVERYBODY. my GI tract is back to normal today. insh'allah proper appetite will return with it. excellent breakfast this morning: four-egg omelette with sliced fingerling heirloom potatoes, a bit of cheddar, and salmon. roasting potatoes is something i should do more often.
Where the greens at, yo?
in my lunch and dinner.

"hamstring dominance" is not the reason why you can't squat deep.

WEIGHT: 170.5 diarrhea is a bitch
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: some tweaking going on in right plantar flexor/plantar fascia
MENTAL STATE: tired, extremely low motivation, had to rely on my old method of just forcing myself to walk to the gym and then deciding, well, i'm here, might as well work out
- warm up
there is no fucking space in the gym anymore.
- SVJ x 6
oh sweet baby jesus, these were unbelievably bad. i doubt they were 24. wow.
- jump squat bar x 3,3; 95 x 3
uncoordinated as fuck
- paused squat 225 x 5,5
not as atrocious, weight obviously very light even for my detrained/post-ill state
- superset x 3
-- chest-to-bar pull ups x 6
-- DB OHP 45s x 6
- GHR ISO holds x a bunch
- hanging windshield wipers x 5,5,5
feet left, feet right is one rep
- stretch
just a terrible workout, but good that i got it in. gonna take a while to get back in the groove. will resist the temptation to eat my face off to regain the lost weight. if it comes back gradually, it will come back well.
gonna start alternating upper vertical with upper horizontal. more tomorrow, including squats, because not gonna work out on the fourth.

slept fitfully last night and woke up early this morning with some absolutely heinous gas. seems to have died down somewhat but god damn, i'm glad i was the only one in the apartment. took advantage of the early wake-up to do about 35 minutes of SMR.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: very tired but otherwise okay
- SMR/mobilization for t-spine x 25 mins
still recovering a bit from the travel and sickness, and i did not get any kind of unpacking or cleaning done yesterday because i was asleep or out of it all day. so no gym tonight, but lots of chores and shit that very much needed doing.
back on the horse tomorrow for my first squats in three weeks!

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: everything, especially ITB
MENTAL STATE: sicker than i've been in a good while, 100.2 fever and vomiting and diarrhea since about halfway through my flight back from dubai
- no workout today, just trying to rehydrate and eat something eventually. so much for my modest weight loss, though.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: irritated, have not slept enough in days, the gym was so fucking small i literally couldn't jump rope except for single unders.
- jump rope x 5 mins
got fed up
- exercise bike x 15 mins
- stretch
just wanted to get the juices flowing a bit before the last 15-hour leg (13 on the plane plus immigration and customs and the cab ride home). time to pack up and head to DXB. it's been an absolutely incredible trip but i'm glad to be heading home.
