ME Upper

Weighted full ROM Pushup: 60x7
Weighted IR: Top set 60x6

4 rounds dip holds

Notes:

  • Whatever workout. Frustrated with my shoulder feeling like ass and wrapping up physics
  • First bad workout in like 3 months so
  • Need to build a prehab/warmup for this shoulder shit
  • Lastly nicotine has given the ability to push through these final few days of studying

Are you a consistent user? I don’t want to come in like a grandpa here but quitting nicotine had some great benefits for me that I didn’t even expect. Heart rate, anxiety, gut issues, all improved a ton.

Nah one cigar a week at most. Only let myself go free because the studying is wearing me down but just having 1 cigarillo a day over the last 2 days so its less nicotine

I also noticed I cant train after I have nicotine so it really limits consumption. I did touch rugby after having a cigar in the morning and it was the worst experience ever

I do not want to fuck with zyn ever

good mindset, glad to hear. Zyns were a problem for me, they’re way too easy man. Still enjoy cigars every summer but don’t find them as addictive.

Before a workout is detrimental. Messes with the heart rate and nothing feels right from there.

@Stormblessed The heart rate thing is one of the biggest reasons I cut out caffeine. It would kill my focus

ME Lower

Single leg bounding: 4x20yrds
SSB pause squat: work up to 255x1 (then called it)
BSS: 85x3x12
GHR: 44x4x6
Copenhagen plank: 30s,25s,22s

Notes:

  • Pause squats were shit but I know why. I did a heavy 6rm on belt squat tuesday so of course my ME work would be impacted. Probably going to use a GM variation next week to deload the ME movements and get back to ME in the first part of the week
  • Also my low back has been feeling pretty stiff
  • I found a hill to sprint so doing that tomorrow
  • I started listening to “X-Men the Audio Drama” and got reminded of @T3hPwnisher when the third episode wound up being about the juggernaut
  • Holy shit I have my physics final today and then Im done. 2 weeks before normal semester starts
  • Lastly I’ve been watching some meal prep videos and who the hell has the time (or energy) to peel and cut potatoes?

They’re just getting in the way of the good stuff anyway! Although the skin is the most toxic part…

And I’m honored that you think of me when you hear the Juggernaut.

That is a beautiful NY strip. Though, it resembles Illinois.

  • Nothing heavy enough for topset so it was multiple sets
  • Legs are still sore from the other day. Will probably ride the bike later today bc I’m vacation out

@QuadQueen I should be getting my stitches out this weekend!

Since the last post, I’ve been biking, running, walking, and doing yoga. I plan on return to normal lifting Saturday (might just be lower body)

The other change I’m making for time reasons is Max effort on Saturday and Sunday. RE is easier during the week

Conditioning:

BW squat Juarez valley 20: 10:30

Notes:

  • I learned how to ride a bike recently. With the whole middle finger in a splint thing, it’s challenging to ride to class (I tried yesterday) so that’ll have to wait until I get all my fingers back

Squat:

Ssb: 255x3x3

Notes:

  • yeah shit day. No idea why. I must be underfed
  • i started back on strict apex predator so body is switching fuel sources or some shit
  • Kinda pissed at this session so I called it early
  • 255 felt like the world. Maybe it’s bc I haven’t been under a bar in 2 weeks. It changing anything just giving myself a break in period
  • Still have 1 stitch in my finger so I was kinda out of it with squatting
