holy shite this was bad- I decided to do some singles and they sucked, surprised that I actually got 80kg for 9, but things just went downhill… oh well…
Press: 5x2-40kg, 2x5- 30kg all EMOM
DB bench: 3x845lb dbs
front raises: 3x12-10lb dbs
helping adjust the rack
the pressing and bench felt a lot better than expected
Random rambling
I can’t believe that after a full year of searching, I STILL have not found a suitable replacement for my friend (that one)… I have a paper that I’m struggling with and none of my other econ friends are of any use. Contractual counterparty is banned for being creepy to me, the new econ friend is dealing with his frat, president of ERC is busy with his grad school stuff
Now that my friend (that one) is even more time constrained, I can’t even go to him for help. So yeah, I’m now stuck without anyone to turn to. so frustrating!
Good mornings: 2x8, 2x9, 2x10-60kg with belt
deadbuts: 5x15/side
KBS: 10x10, 10x12, all alternating 1 arm w/ 40 lb kb
Rows: 5x8-40kg
leg extensions: 8x6-90lbs EMOM
death march: 3x30 steps (total)-20lb kbs, 30 sec rests
had exam this morning so didn’t deadlift or would be too dead, good mornings still smoked me though, this went very well
Turns out my friend (that one)'s girlfriend lives in my building.
I had seen her many times in the kitchen but didn’t recognise her until she introduced herself. She’s a really nice person (much better personality than me lol).
idk… there’s something so satisfying in seeing such a perfect match, at the same time, it strangely bothers me.
anyways, this whole situation has been interfering with my productivity much more than it should, and to make things worse, I am not mathematically competent enough to understand the freaking paper with a model that captures a similar situation… and he’s the one who usually helps me when I’m stuck… gahhhhh
You have to stop trying to model an entire person - it’s not possible (I really wish it was).
You can predict certain behaviors and biological functions but we don’t even completely understand how the brain works
It’s the reason we don’t have general intelligence level “AI” yet. The human brain/feelings/emotions don’t run on equations and binaries.
I don’t need it to be accurate. Modelling is something I like. It makes it easier to process things when they are framed as prices, matching, signalling etc
Ig another reason modelling is so important to me js that it’s a big part of what I’m going tk do in grad school and I’m not in that great of a position to be able to do this as of now. He is.
But when it comes to humans as a whole person this model is too inaccurate to be used. To many input and possible output variables, every combination would produce an uncountable set.
Squat: 3x9, 1x8- 80kg
deadbugs: 4x15/side
Paused Squat: 4x2- 0301 tempo
Good mornings: 2x11 regular, 2x6 paused 0301 temp0, all at 50kg
snatch grip DL: 4x6-70kg
Bodyweight leg work: 8x(45sec air squats+15sec rest)
squats felt amazing- getting angry over my model failing def helped ig… this doesn’t look like a lot of work, but I am DEAD,
Updates:
I outlined a model for my thesis project. It does not address the research question… Hopefully advisor responds to my “help me!” email soon and we can sort this out before break
I got full marks on my term paper for behavioural econ!
Last night, my mum was switching phone plans and apparently she’d be in the Verizon office for 6 hrs. I got really frustrated after 1 hr. I couldn’t imagine having to deal with 6 hours
