Misc: no doms but didnt sleep great

So im not sure what sort of squat to attempt. Possibly 6 triples with 132.5kg though 130kg might be cleaner and more attainable. Or maybe i shud be aggressive and try 6x3x135kg and hope i can get that lol. idk.

Havent weighed myself in a while (maybe 2 weeks?). But i think the scale will read 85kg or more. I am ok with it, strangely. But i cant let myself gain weight r/n. Will just train hard by running and jumping (i mean dunking PRishly at this weight) and let my body figure it out. If nothign else i'll get some muscle/strength from doing sports movements at heavier bodyweight. Im no longer fixating on being a lean 85kg tho, think lean 90kg is a gooder goal. but my lift ratios have to improve considerably before im in a position to gain weight. For now, just stick to cleanish eating and get my lifts up. Will aim to get a paused BP of 5x5x100kg (hopefully a 120kg single or 2 big plates a side). And 5x5x150-160kg squat? not focusing on squats right now. my phsique will benefit more from upper body mass than low.

now I'm confused  :lololol:

Yeah around 85kg. Fatter but i may have a bit more muscle, tiny more. Would be interesting to play bball and see if it helps in the post. Turned down a chance to fill in a game on monday, was just too exhausted. Will start running and get some body recomp without dieting while remaining heavy! And dunk some tomahawks again, it's been a while.

Was trying to think of how to plan to weigh a lean 90kg. Maybe something like this:

Get BS 5x5x140 & Paused BP 5x5x90 at 85kg or so. Maintain for 3 weeks. Cut to 82.5kg., maintain for 3 weeks.

Go for BS 5x5x150 and Paused BP 5x5x100kg at 87.5kg. Maintain for 3 weeks. Cut to 85kg.

Go for BS 5x5x160 and Paused BP 5x5x105 at 90kg. Maintain for 3 weeks. Cut to 87.5kg. 

Go for BS 5x5x170 and Paused BP 5x5x110 at 92.5kg. Maintain for 3 weeks. Cut to 90kg. Done.

Dude you're overthinking it. Why not train hard and to perform whatever you need to perform? Not a rhetorical question. Actually why not? I ask myself the same question all the time and I can't find a good enough answer as to why I don't do this.

if i rephrased it as gain 5kg of bw to add 10kg to the bar, then diet off 2.5kg of fat; repeat. it wouldn't seem that overthinky .. ha
