Your 70.5lb kettlebell is most likely a 32kg bell, which is a standard weight in the world of KB, alongside the 24 and 48kg bell.
10 minutes of lifting before school would be a great way to get some of the work done.

Yeah, that makes sense. I did see on it that it is 32kg, but I always ignore it because this is America and we use freedom units haha
It definitely would.
December 4 2025 ; W2D4 Recovery day
Will do some walking today if I have the time, I might. No, im probably going to be staying afterschool today to talk with one of the science teachers about the science fair.
Today is a long day. I get to go to the college science thing again.
Next school year is going to be really tough with how many AP courses I plan on takingā¦ glad Iām planning in a studyhall for every day.
6 minutes until breakfast.
Wellā¦
No college program today. My brother had a seizure (heās fine now, heās just at the hospital) during work so he couldnāt drive me. Dadās breaks for the car also took a crap. This means Thursdays are pretty much out for now, since My uncle only has time on Tuesdays to take me.
So yeah.
Currently eating, will update that in a bit
When I take my weight on Sunday, I might consider decreasing my calories by a bit. I think Im gaining weight a little too fast. But I might not, because my calories arenāt that much higher than they were when I was roughly maintaining, at most 200 on some days. Then again, I donāt know. I will decide the end of next week, week 3.
Hope your brother heals up dude.

Tomorrow is OHP+Deadlift/S2 day. Il have to try out the different form for deadlift. Maybe I can stop my shins from getting bruised as much.

Im so tired from today. A lot of stress from constant whatever in school learning.
I donāt know if Iāll be able to do my 5 AP courses next year like a planned. I mean, I AM allowed to space them out the next TWO years. Il have a study hall everyday, so, I can study, But I donāt knowā¦
Im just really stressed out. I have so much homework, I have to make my christmas gifts, I gotta make sure I eat all that I need, I donāt have any fun it seems like. I donāt know anything fun to do I have so much I need to do I cant do anything. I hate holidays they are so unproductive and when I get back I get overwhelmed by everything I need to do I just want to be aloneā¦
I donāt want to have to deal with peoples crap anymore always yappin away about nothing and all these rude puertos and Spaniards everywhere I know thereās good ones I know some but thereās so many bad ones I hate how they act I wish they would just act normal. not even them, ALL people so many of my fellow whites always gotta be so rude and disrespectful and degenerate, rejoicing in their iniquity and sin, making good evil and evil good. I just want to get away from it all. I wish people would just get along and love one another with brotherly love. We need more and less of many things.
Im tired of It all, Iām tired in general. I need a good rest. I wish I would sleep for like 12 hours and then wake up. But no thatās not how it works I always have to wake up at the right time because thatās whats right. I wish I would stop having dreams during sleep they are such a distraction I hate them some of them are wicked and so weird. The one was about two clouds in the sky being gods fallopian tubes that we could attach and detach with two really long bamboo poles. Wtf. What is this.
Iāve become very irritable as of late. I donāt like that. But I am. I am becoming someone who gets pissed off/irritated more and more. That in and of itself frustrates me. Maybe its testosterone/general hormone changes since Iām a teen, I suppose it is.
I feel very uncomfortable in my own skin sometimes. Mostly at school. Like it feels like I canāt walk right. Like Iām walking very unnaturally. Also, it feels like sometimes people treat me like a sped kid or whatever that really pisses me off and gets me psyched down. Its probably because Iām not great at talking really. I just donāt know how to talk to more people. I donāt know how to interact socially really. Its just awkward.
Im such a mess
Hey - former teacher and father of two college kids, taught AP, both kids took AP classes.
I would recommend you look into the book Mindset by Carol Dweck. You might have some time to read it over the break. Short summary - focus on enjoying the process rather than the result.
Five AP classes is a lot if you are focused on getting Aās rather than on enjoying the experience. If you are looking to enhance your choices for college, you want to find a balance.
My son took AP Language (among many others) but chose not to take AP Lit his senior year because he was taking four other AP classes in subjects he enjoyed more, and he wanted to enjoy his senior year.
It worked out.

Didnāt feel like getting up until like 9AM this morning. I had some weird dreams. There were these weird cat worm leech things. There was this type of rock where if it had white and black stuff on it, and the rock gets broken in some way, the stuff turns black, and these fuzzy worm things that have cat heads grow. They were simply called leech worms I think.

Not bad.
Did my homework. Just need to work on crocheting. Stomach has been hurting a bit today, so Im taking it easy laying in bed. I think it might be caused by stress, last time I was really drained from stress I had the same thing happen. I had no energy by like 7 at night, and I didnāt want to eat because stomach was hurting a bit. Thought I had to go to the doctor, but I felt better by the end of the week.
Time to crochet and relax.
Was reading through old posts. Manā¦ I miss this lol. No matter. When its time for operator again, and base building, I can shed some pounds.
Diet hasnāt been great today. Stomach was hurting, so I didnāt want to eat a ton.

1 pack donut sticks (ugh. These were awful. I hate the aftertaste of these)

I need 389 Kcal and 67g protein. I donāt want to eat any more today. I havenāt eaten this little inā¦ a long time. Canāt remember when other than when I started a my lean bulk in August last year.
I got a bit of crocheting done today. I might go up to the attic to grab more yarn, but maybe not.
Today was a very lazy day. Didnāt do much at all. I was fine with it today though. I needed it. I was feeling burnt out and tired. I feel a bit better now. Stomach hurts still, but considerably less.
December 7 2025 - W2D7 Measurement day
Time to see my changes from this week.
ā¦
Waist 32.5" (+0 inches)
Glutes: 37" (+0 inches)
Chest: 41" (+0.5 inch)
Biceps: 14" (+0 inches)
Thigh: 23.5" (+0 inches)
Im not great at measuring my chest, so it may be closer to 40.75 inches or so. I donāt know. Il weigh myself once I go downstairs. I think its about 168lbs, which is an extra 2 lbs higher than last week.
Today I plan on doing more crocheting. I think my stomach upset has passed, but we will see after I eat.
End of Week 2 weigh in: 167lbs (+1lb gain from last week)
Switch to CM for measurements, or 1/8 to 1/10 of an inch. When measuring that frequently, youāre not going to see significant changes, and for smaller muscles like the biceps theyāre just not going to grow in the realm of inches for a LONG time.
