For a controlled experiment- good luck getting it past IRB
- although, someone managed to get a drunk lifting study done so maybe?

Bench 140x1, 75x23,12,10
Row 75x14,14,12
All sets ~ failure
Bench still feels weird on my shoulders (no pain)
Kicked it with 2 friends for the first time in forever, nice to chill
Oh and I slept at 0130 yesterday, and felt better. The body is strange

Press 5x85 (pull ups in between)
BTN bar 17, 13 (+5s), 6// High incline db 20s17, 14 (laterals, dislocates)
My chest was fairly fucking sore from bench so I felt the incline way more in my upper chest
Curls were not happening with my shoulder pump
9/22/20
Squats 5x140 - slower out of the hole than Iād like, and a strange (no pain) feeling of my hamstrings shifting during the decent
(1 leg hip thrust, plate halos in between)
3x10 @ 105
(pushups, pullups, in between)
1.5 x 10 nordic hams, stopped when i felt a mild burning in my right calf
The temperature picked up today significantly, so I was dragging ass. The 2x10 I owe Iāll throw in with the run day.
School wise Iām slowly plugging away on everything
9/24/20
Squats 2x10@105
Short run
Running on tired legs is certainly one way to make it shittier lol
Iāve been sleeping a little later and this seems to cut any energy crashes. And competition level math and chemistry is fucking difficult lol

Noā¦shitā¦
AMC?
And the chem analogue, yeah
Iāll be able to do some log problems from the aime (level past amc12) but be struggling with basic geometry problems at the same time lol
9/26/20
OHP 95x5, slower than Iād like, 115x1 grind lol
All reps from the floor
(DB rows in-between)
I cut it there because
A: dragging ass on studying - have to sleep before 2330 if I want a productive day
B: my shoulder wasnāt the happiest with the 115 lol. I caught it a bit akwardly
9/28
Squats 5 @ 145
10/1
5x10 @ 105, sprint down the alley in between
Legs pumped but squats moved quick. My engine needs work and r adductor was a bit tight
17,16,11 dead stop pushups
15,14 db overhead w 20s
Grasping AMC problems is difficult lol
Note to self: axe the pushups
10/5
Squat 5 @155 , meh
Lying leg raises 2x10, side lunges 2x20 w 20
10/8
Deads a lot of doubles x 165
Conditioning
(db snatch, 2 reverse lunges)X4, 4 med ball rdl, 10 tricep pushdowns
7 rounds in 10 min. This thrashed my grip but not my lungs
One day later: and thrashed my ass and traps
Still plugging along school wise, not much to report there
Press 80x5 felt heavy AF but no grind
Giant sets (row odd/even sets DB/btn raise
Row ish on lat pulldown: 15x4
DB press 25s: 15, 15
BTN press bar: 12, 15
Raise w 5s: 15x4
I need to brace harder on the press

Squat: 7x135, 5x10 @ 105
The top set moved slow, 5x10 moved well. And I think I may be favouring my right leg a bit more; need a video
Warmed up with goblets and pulls, worked well enough
I say that and it feels like I tweaked my hamstring lol
This makes a lot of differenceā¦squeezing the ass and abs at the same time and not losing that after reps really makes a lot of difference

Ohp 5x85
BTN bar 4x15
Row 25s 4x30 sec
Reverse grip tricep pushdown on the shit lat pulldown 4x30 sec
Hangs for grip and to decompress lower back
Dead bugs
Overhead, as always, could have moved faster. Assistance was ran as giant sets, BTN felt a bit weird but good pump as always
I need better bracing on overhead in particular. Holding my air, not flexing my ass
School is kicking my ass now

Itās mostly the cumulative work volume. A lot more things to juggle, and the 1.5/2 hours of chem and math Iām (trying to) tacking on every day doesnāt help there
Though if youāre going by grades- Spanish, English language and Calc (accuracy HW, no retakes). And physics C is never going to be easy haha

Iāve given into math, but refuse to touch physics
10/20
Med ball throw 3 w 50/ Squat 5x145 / hanging knees 8
Reverse lunge / goblet squat / rdl w 25 lbs 30/30/30/30 sec rest, 4 rounds

Same friends swung by in the afternoon
Throw / 5x10 squats @ 105, / row sets of 10 w 70
Deads doh to 295 single. Not snappy, but no grind at all
Then dicked around with a skateboard for 20 min. And by that I mean said friends tried to teach me how to ride. Oh and I can put my hair into a short high ponytail now
My legs are shot today. Still grinding away at life
