Still like 9/10 quad/glute soreness from those lunges. Totally wrecked. Pecs/lats/tris also sore, so just trained what felt ready.

Visited my wife's family in Singapore. Strange country, but as far as repressed authoritarian island nations go, i can't say i find it any more objectionable than the one i live in.

lol. also, the food in singapore is incredible IME, so there's that. but yeah it's a weird place. the social engineering is really in your face.

Yup, best city in the world for range/variety of food imo. Amusingly, one weakness compared to London/NYC was actually range of Chinese cuisine. You have a lot of the local+Peranakan Chinese dishes, so lots of Teochew etc, and Cantonese is popular everywhere. But other regions (Xinjiang, Sichuan, Hunan) are better represented in the big Western metropolises. However, this is changing because big chain restaurants in China aren't making that much money internally, so they're expanding to nearby markets. Didn't avail myself of any for obvious, but was fun to hear about China economic stuff feeding into local food culture.

Light session to get back into things.

Back from holiday. Had a great time. Did 3 full body lifting sessions and 3 cardio sessions + averaged like 12k steps, so kept nicely active. Ate a lot of great food. Giving it a couple days before I weigh myself since wthe delta is always confounded by going off creatine when away.

Notes

Few nice days of training. Feel full all the time for last couple of weeks. Traveling for a couple of weeks, so that'll be a nice reset from a forced eating pattern. Likely will end up eating a lot regardless, thoguh, but less systematically. Shuold have some gym access so will try to do a lil bit of training while away, but won't be a priority.

I can just feel my hamstring flexibility eroding from the running volume. Might switch GMs to like SLDLs from the floor or with a deficit bc I don't want to lose that.

Notes

Achilles not bothered me at all last couple of days. Will trial it out on a light run tmrw.

The motivation to get as big as possible is waning a little bit. But, I know life is getting busier going forward so gonna push through and maximise in this current cycle. In future I can imagine lifting only 1/2x week and focusing more on running, staying a nice light lean weight etc.

Oh, also, finally found some jeans that fit. The brand is Spoke. A bit expensive, but quality seems high and they have a lot of options, and the loose cut actually fits my legssuch that they look like normal slim-ish jeans on non-lifter legs.

Notes

Bit of achilles pain on right side while walking around last couple of days. Hadn't felt it at all while running for a while so that's annoying. May be back to bike for cardio for a bit, bleh.

The pec thing is also still there, not sure what it is. Not really bothering me so will just monitor.
