Life of a Teenager

Straoned my delt on Tuesday- haven’t done much
No clue if it’ll be good for my first meet

How?

Good question :sweat_smile:
I think I sprawled (think throwing yourself to the ground but with straight arms) and twisted too much so my shoulder was yanked in 2 directions
Luckily it’s not that serious

First wrestling meet
Wasn’t looking forward to this (5:30 wakeup) but it was actually a blast
1-2 unfortunately
Got smashed by the first guy. Didn’t sprawl quickly enough
Smashed the 2nd- he shot and I sprawled, circled to a power half
Third guy- collar steal (?)ed the guy but rolled too far on the finish and got pinned

#1 takedown is collar steal
Sprawl if they shoot

Getups, 1 arm oh squats- 1x3/side
Zercher squat- 2x5 @ 95
BTN Press- 3x2-3-5-10 @ bar
Pullups- 2x10

First session back
Took it easy on the pressing

2nd meet
1-2 again
First guy got my leg.
Won 2nd on points. This sucked ass
3rd guy just shot deep and quick. Forgot to turn away to avoid the power half

I need better bottom game and some sort of leg takedown
Collar steals need forward pressure

Starting to get back to lifting

Also jammed my thumb and elbow, which makes some movements annoying

Quick workout
Planned to do shoulders but got sidetracked
12,10,7 w 35 lb bells

Deads up to a 300 single. Ridiculously smooth for 300 (I think I somehow got stronger not lifting ? Or the plates at my house are off)

Where are you?

Here and there. Sort of floundering about.
Ran simple but brutal for a bit, then sort of fell off. And really need to commit to eating.
Also got a 1530 on the SAT

Hell yeah. That’s an awesome grade. I got myself a 1440 my first try, I’m prepping to get it above 1500. My math was lagging (690) compared to my reading (750).

Nice, you beat mine! I had a 1510, 710 math and 800 verbal. Of course, my high school didn’t offer any math past trigonometry and I hadn’t taken trig yet when I took the exam so I was sort of handicapped there. Also 30-some years ago so it might be comparing apples to oranges, who knows how the exam has changed in that time.
