SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: left foot making its presence known but not uncomfortable. mid-back tender and feeling like it wants to seize up but i did some stretching and such and i think it's okay. had the same problem last time i was in kabul but the spasm went full-blast then. must be a consequence of the travel.

worked 8:30-8:30 today. ate only breakfast and dinner, no lunch. gym was 25 mins from close by the time i got down there. very tired.

WEIGHT: 179
SORENESS: hams
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: meh

- warm up

- SVJ x 6
~25, ugh

- pogo x 5

- squat 305 x 5,5,5
tough, definite knee caving on later reps. repeat or add 5 lbs next week at most.

- OHP 110 x 7,3
back, hm.

- DB row 90 x 7,3

- paused leg press calf raise 365 x 20(14,6),20(12,8)

- toes to bar x 10,10

- stretch

kind of a weird workout. nothing felt great, felt kind of weak. calibrated the scale on my gf's suggestion. she pointed out that if you move the weights over to zero and then fiddle with them you find out what the scale's actual zero point is. turns out this is 4 lbs, i.e., it over-weighs things by 4 lbs. so subtract 4 from my weights over the past couple of months. except today.

WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: calves
ACHES/INJURIES: left knee announcing itself but no pain or even discomfort
MENTAL STATE: excited, nervous

- warm up

- indoor ultimate x 60 mins

sweet baby god i'm out of shape. i played okay my first couple of shifts in (indoor is hockey-style w/r/t subs) but after that i couldn't do jack shit. got my lungs back alright each spell on the sideline but once my legs got tired they did not recover. then the rust really showed. i was in the wrong place at the wrong time a lot, i got beat under and deep, my cuts were shit. i had one incredibly boneheaded sub-out where i left my mark open. oof. at least i can still throw a bit. and i did have one good deep D after i was gassed. but mostly, i sucked.

anyway, nothing i didn't expect, really. it was a little embarrassing. also, we lost. 25-21, i think. the game was sloppy on both sides, lots of throwaways and drops. kind of akin to a basketball game that ends 75-68 with both teams shooting 38% from the floor and turning the ball over 20 times.

all that said, it was fun and i was glad to be playing again.

 :derp:

Damn, the paused leg press calf raises were that bad in terms of generating soreness? Or was it that + the basketball game?
Current PR status:

All time squat: 165 kg/Old age squat: 130 kg
All time deadlift: 184 kg/Old age deadlift: 140 kg
All time bench: 85 kg/Old age bench: 70kgx5reps
All time hip thrust (same as old age hip thrust): 160kgx5reps

the former. although my shins are sore today and that's unquestionably from the game.

SORENESS: shins, calves a bit. man i wrecked 'em on monday. like whoa.
ACHES/INJURIES: none
MENTAL STATE: happy, good mood, excited to play again

- warm up
inadequate

- indoor ultimate x 60 mins
so much better than tuesday. getting my legs back a bit. still got gassed but we were better with subbing today so i was never on for too long (well, maybe once). and i didn't suck so outrageously after i got tired. plus we blew the other team out of the water; it was close at halftime but i think we outscored them 21-2 in the second half. so that's always fun.

saturday, squat MSEM @ 335. yeehaw.
