Can definitely see that by barely increasing the weight, I already default to the squat morning pattern.
Today was the first day my hamstring DOMS was mostly gone. Just in time to do it all over again. Lifted much later than planned… yesterday my body decided it would be cool to reset its internal clock, so I didn’t eat dinner until after 11 PM. Not ideal.
I think the belt squat setup and the instant pot are my best purchases this year. I did a lot of cooking yesterday, and it was stupidly easy to make a perfect roast on my first try. Really excited to try yogurt next and when I accumulate enough bones, bone broth. Gonna be that person.
Belt squats with the landmine have been, pun intended, a pain in the ass. I had doms for a solid 4 days after last squat session thanks to a widowmaker squat set then belt squats to failure. I see its treating you the same.
All of the squatting is horrible for sure, but RDLs hurt worse. Thankfully it’s only one day to especially dread.
I’ve had this terrible idea floating around in my mind to superset the belt squats with some sort of single leg work. Haven’t tried it, but I reckon it could be a good approach if you’re masochistic

I’m off the opinion that bone broth doesn’t require a lot of bones. I don’t remember how inclined you were to eat poultry but one chicken carcass is enough IMHO if boiled for long enough. In my experience, once it is cooked I’ll rinse my hands in cold water and strip the bones clean and toss them back into the cooker and have bone broth a few hours later. I haven’t experimented a lot with beef based bone broths, the closest I’ve gotten is oxtail but very often I find myself eating that directly off the bone and I don’t want to toss bones back into the slow cooker that have been in my mouth ^^
I was reading some recipes, and they called for several pounds of bones and/or filling the pot at least halfway. I do eat poultry, but I am frugal and rather spend money on quality red meat than chicken. So, I typically eat cheap boneless chicken breast (sometimes thighs) and thus don’t collect chicken remains. I think I need to cook a few more roasts before I have enough bones for broth

Not single-leg, but I supsetted belt squats with hamstring curls the other day. For sets of 20.
0/10 fun. Definitely recommend it.

I slept poorly last night, but I think the little amount of strength I have is coming back. Light weight but hoping I can look back on videos like these in the not too distant future and be able to do 200x17 instead
The weather was (un)fortunately awesome today, so I did 6 hill sprints afterwards. Now that I have more energy, they feel like sprints again rather than… trudges.
Lol, that’s always a good thing. My “sprints” have been pretty pathetic lately too haha.
you can have the satisfaction of your 400m run being faster than mine at least

I was pleased to say the least that I had to tolerate only one main set of squats today.
It will seem silly that I even mention this, but I confess that I, who identifies as a non-drinker, had two baby sips of champagne last night. I don’t necessarily feel guilty though obviously weird enough to state it. I’m anti-social, but I think it was good for me. Slept > 8 quality hours last night
Runs were a bit slow. I blame it on having done legs immediately prior and on the brisk wind and chilly weather.
What do you think informs the almost guilt? I know that’s a potentially personal question, as it tangents why you ordinarily don’t drink so don’t feel obliged to reply if you don’t want to
