thanksgiving day farm fest: planted a bunch of plants/trees in the ground.

pullups/dips throughout the day.

back has been achy the last few days: I think i'm staying "too upright" on my ssbar squats. Ever since i started trying to be "even safer" (more iap/inhale/upright), i think it's stressing my back too much.



on another farm note: the bananas that grew on this property (been here since before i bought it), are epic. little cavendish bananas but so damn sweet/perfect. perhaps the best i've ever had.

need to get my ice cream banana trees into the ground soon.

about to bed in bed before 11 ! nice.

ordered soil by the yard. ordered 2 cubic yards and had it dumped via dump truck. it's sitting near my house. MUCH cheaper than buying soil by the bag.. lol.

FARM LIFE.

did farm stuff all day.. planted 10+ plants in the ground. it's getting nutty. just hope they all do good.

planted 3 papaya's, moringa's, bananas, mexican sunflower, and a naval orange tree. :headbang:

w/o's:

tons of dips/pullups throughout the day, a few sets of parallel squats.

body feels jacked up atm.. farm life is rough. tennis-elbow-ish thing going on in my right elbow for a few weeks now.. i think barbell curls are what really triggered it. but now the combo of farm stuff (pick axe) and w/o's seem to stress it. if it gets bad/scary ill chill w the w/o's.

w/o 2:

not really a w/o.. went on a 2 hour full-moon bike ride through the farms. was great. awesome weather + awesome scenery.

farm life all day.

been "stressed out" about how many slash pine roots i have.. they are EVERYWHERE. i don't want to damage my pines, they are beautiful.

soo.. i'm not stressing out anymore. just need to accept it as part of the system & work with it .. so, plan is to dig down far enough to where i get to the roots (2-6"), set the plant's base in there, then surround it with soil (since it'll be above ground level) .. basically need to create mounds, but a bit of a hybrid. that's my theory anyway. Also need to plant more "young plants" (i have tons of older ones in pots) - younger plants can worm their roots around and share the space easier.

i cut through some "distal" slash pine roots to plant things, and it's really stressing me out.. don't want to damage those trees. some are 50+ years old etc, maybe even 100.

i need to dig out some sections to get more "fill dirt", to be used in securing the mounds etc.

such a huge operation .. but that's what i signed up for. hah.

put like 15 plants in the ground this weekend. :wowthatwasnutswtf:



w/o:
- morning

S1: 3-5 sec paused dead hang pullups variation: {ng=9, chinup=9, pullup=6}

S1: full dips: BW x 12, 10, 8, ... 5, 10

S1: ssbar deep squats: 75 lb. x 30, 20, 20

Farmer dude with an OCD for paused pullups randomly decides to go pick his mail , does 3.2K in 15 minutes, which is my all time 3K PR that I achieved just this week after months of training.

it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?

felt like taking two days off from "lifting". weekends are rough w/ farm life + some lifting. seems like i'll always be taking monday's off now.. and maybe tuesday's.

many hours of pickaxe/saw/shovel etc on the weekends makes it hard to lift on monday without getting a bit too much into a hole for tues/wed/thurs/fri.

all good.

hope to hit some stuff tmw!

weather was ~52 F today .. absolutely beautiful out. golden sunrise w/ "cold" weather this morning was epic.

Mate you're going to be a beast with that farm strength coming on.

you aren't kidding.. i'm decently farm strong too - i can work outside non-stop, doing whatever. lifting, pick axing, clipping, chopping, planting, shoveling etc.. lmao. decent strength foundation from all those years training, and some good endurance.

just need to be very careful.

also have to be careful with lifting: squatting can't be fatiguing my legs/back/core etc, and impacting my farm life - seems like a great way to get injured too.. that's why i dropped the ssbar squats back down to 75 lb. just going to rep out light stuff for a long time. makes me feel really good & def puts some strength/mass on.

have a slight issue going on with my right forearm, which i can feel slightly on ng pullups/chinups. it's actually getting better, which is good .. but, the combo of hours of pick axe + those barbell curls is what probably triggered it. i use my right arm/hand way more during farm movements. been trying to use my left a bit more.. but also can't risk doing something weird w/ my left and getting hurt.

so just going to keep it light w/ workouts for now, and go HARD AS FU*K w/ farm life. :D

pc man !

w/o 1:
- morning: lots of dips/pullups

w/o 2:
- evening: lots of dips/pullups
- had to switch from ng to just pure pronated pullups. supination isn't happy right now - elbow taxed. luckily the dips feel fine & pronated pullups feel good as well.

won't hurt to hit more pronated pullups for a while .. in fact, it'll help.

farm life:
- all day.. feel beat. plan to do alot tomorrow too, but want to watch some of the dolphins game.
- got alot of good stuff in the ground: 2 katuk's, 3 avocados, banana, moringa, lemon grass, flowers, portweed, etc.
- also re-used my banana leaves that have been sitting there "rotting" -> stacked them up thick in areas im trying to kill weed growth. bit of an experiment. i think it'll work good. basically stacked up 5-10 leaves (real thick) in several spots, and put some palm leaves on them + banana stalks etc, to lock them in & weigh em` down.
- also got 5 yards of soil dropped! :wowthatwasnutswtf:

so far i've been making use of literally everything that i cut/chop down, or that falls naturally. really nice. love that kind of system.

last few days, 3 sets of pullups/dips/squats.

hit 12 dips two days ago.

pullups (pronated) feeling better for my elbow .. hopefully can just keep knocking those out for a bit and let this heal.

also did a 2 mile run on sunday.
 
body feels wrecked from sat/sun farm life.
