WEIGHT: 177 uh oh
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: stressed

- warm up

- broad jump x 4
i think i PR'd but the gym has no measuring tape.

- depth broad jump x 5
all around the distance of my "PR" jump, some longer some shorter.

- squat MSEM 330 x F; 315 x 3
what. the fuck. 330 was just not happening. probably a combination of poor diet, poor sleep and high stress but this weight should be handlable even in bad circumstances. i had to dump it because i was squatting outside safeties. guh.

- engage pansy mode. bail on rest of workout.

worst workout ever, despite excellent broad jumps. they just felt super explosive (for me).

also, i can't do high bar. holding the bar on my traps is intensely uncomfortable, even with an empty bar. it doesn't feel hard to describe but now that i'm typing it is. the pressure is just painful. make all the jokes you want about my puny traps, fact is that the one time i managed to get my gf in the gym she did high bar with no problems. it's not a matter of the muscles being too small.

the last bit reminds me of adarq's pin squats from a couple of years ago.

Also that dude that did high bar halfs and quarters with 350+lbs when his full squat was 250 or less, it sure worked good for him too!  ;D

oh yeah, who was that guy?  :almostascoolasnyancat:

kyle's main audience is people whose primary concern is aesthetics.

Don't know who Kyle is but IMO people who train primarily for aesthetics rather than performance end up looking like the train only for aesthetics.  Which to me is a rather unaesthetic look.

kyle is lyle mcdonald.

kyle's main audience is people whose primary concern is aesthetics. if your goals include "getting faster" or "improving speed endurance," then obviously you should sprint. he wouldn't argue with that.

from a gchat today with a friend:

Quote
Jennifer:  how's your lifting?
 me:  meh
i'm engaged in a debate about whether i should switch to high bar
 Jennifer:  no brainer.
yes.
 me:  well you're biased
oly lifter
 Jennifer:  your low bar isn't really that low anyway.
 me:  i know
and i get deep and stay relatively upright
 Jennifer:  HAHAHA.

thanks man. i wish i knew less about addiction than i did. he's alive and we can't really ask for more than that.

i'm not sure what that means.

in other news, my brother disappeared again a couple of days ago and turned up today at the ER with a ripped tendon and punctured artery in his arm. he'd bandaged it himself and apparently tied it tight enough that he didn't bleed out, so that's good. but he bled all over the ER nurse. guess she's seen worse. on the plus side, he's alive. on the down side, i now have a new way in which i can imagine him dying. bleeding to death was not on the list before.

also, it's my mom's birthday, so i'm going out to dinner with her. i was planning to work out afterward but under the circumstances that might not happen.

EDIT: yeah, no way i was getting to the gym today. tomorrow's out too so it'll have to be friday. oh well.

mozgov should just give up at this point and start handing out posters of himself crying in the bathroom.
