I like that list. Especially numbers 1, 4 & 7.

Thanks! It hasnt happened yet .. im still eating out every day lol lol. But im working up to that state where i'll get fed up of myself and just go 100% for a long ass time. Being fit is definitely the best way i can improve my health and athleticism. If i was to put it in terms of vertical, im prob at a 12" vertical equivalent in fitness terms. To compete i need to be thinking of 28" so i can 'dunk'.  Social media ive been doing well so far, input just have that training instagram which i use as a training log .. check it once or twice a day and im up to date. Easy.

How is number 9 going to work out? Do you just hit the switch and say I'm in? Have you met the girl before?

It's a slow process .. like setting the trajectory of a ship, you make a decision and it takes ages for anything significant to happen sometime down the line. Basically said yes to initiating the process, saw a photo she looks cute, sounds good on paper (educated etc). Now my people will do due diligence and see if everything checks out regarding her story. If that happens eventually we'll meet and take it from there. Could be months later. Im not sure it's better or worse than conventional dating, just different. So far im happy with it because conventional dating is so stressful and this has basically none of that so far. To give you an idea with what im comparing, ive been trying to 'meet' a girl off instagram for about a month and she keeps being flaky and indecisive and yet she seems 'interested' - but ive long lost interest because she's just not able to meet and we live in the same city. So at least the initial part compares favourably. Also if someone signs up for an arranged thing, they're probably serious and not just playing the field. Have ended up in a fair few of dating situations where they've just made you a 'backup' option while they continue to not commit to a relationship. That's prob killed my interest more than anythign else in conventional dating - smething seems promising - goes no where.

Well that 5am conditioning session was an unmitigated disaster. i prob slept like an hour or so before my alarm went off at 4:20am. Felt like throwing up etc.

The new thing i want to mention is the BSS made my R glute sore. So that's really cool. Watch this space. I got almost zero carryover from squatting to my game so far. Will be intersting to see if SL training brings some court-gains to the table..

Really impressive. You could probably do a lot better with lifting shoes but good stuff.

Decided im not going to eat out in the new year. Mainly because it went from being a legit treat to something ive been doing so often that i dont even enjoy it anymore. I think if i go back to my hermit lifestyle i will find it to become a pleasure again once or twice a month or so.

Basketball is killing my gains. We trained this morning for about 3 hours .. im sore af and i have to hit the gym tonight. Now turns out we're gna be doing conditioning at 5 AM on wednesdays - the only day i cud prioritise squats.. so im so close to getting that 180kg squat and now basketball is encroaching on my training and im not sure i can figure it out..

Another 'recovery' day PR - hit 140kg x 8 reps at 90.2kg bw -- was supposed to go for 137.5kg but i wasnt feelign like getting turnt up for 137.5kg. 1rm calculator says 145kgx8 ->180kg singl which is my goal. Not far now. 2 weeks?

Notes
Haven't been to the gym since saturday. Life. Took andrews advice and unleashed the animal in me, felt more and more normal as the workout went on. I think im ok with one or two persons training around me in isolation. But when there is a group especially youths, i feel they'll judge me more? Is that weird? Anyway. Started a new cycle with 155kg. Im gna try get some 25 reps with it in 5-6 sets by adding a rep each week. 150kg for volume was not happening, it just got away from me mentally and physically somehow.
