Prowler coming later. Had to miss the session to find out where a random dog lived. Training partner ended up keeping her overnight and I found the owner
Iām really enjoyed the weighted calisthenics and paused work. Also really liking the double progression, wave loading, and singles. Will base next training cycle off this stuff
Blog post coming later (I know it seems dumb but it helps me)
Extra douchey but I have been feeling amazing overall
Notes:
Had a dinner to go to and lost track of time. Prowler tomorrow
The physical therapist, who helped me with my shoulder, moved practices. My stepmom followed him over there and he was talking about people he met over there. He said that he remembered me and my interest in the human body and possibly physical therapy. Also said that I had a cool grandma. My step mom told him she was my step mom and it surprised him (in a good way, not a āwhy canāt I escape yāallā way)
Another blog post. They will get better with time. Still sort of uncomfortable for me but thatās where growth is Identity
it was more pricey than i wanted it to be but every bite was amazing. Cabbage was a little under seasoned but overall outstanding. Beef patty, jerk chicken, rice, cabbage, and plantains
3 rounds:
10 burpees
2 mins shadow boxing (threw in some wrestling footwork too)
1 Min rest
Notes:
Iāve been wanting to get back into combat sports for the better part of 2 months. It is so damn tempting Iām unsure of what will happen if I get back to it (in terms of mental health, balance, etc.)
Even though I havenāt done any combat sports for like a year, Iām still feeling really nimble and pretty damn confident in my ability to jump back to it
My bench is super wobbly on one spot of the horse stall mat. Super weird and annoying
Officially making my return to BJJ. I think now that I have more responsibilities I canāt go all in and I will be fine. Also thinking that since I quit BJJ right when I was finishing highschool, moving out, and starting college my stress and anxiety showed in BJJ. In other words, I thought BJJ was the problem but thatās just where the other issues in my life were showing
Also clocked in at 6.4% bodyfat on a skin calliper test. Tricep, belly button, and quad (with pants on) pinch sites. Wildly inaccurate
Warm up:
Agile 8
Bathroom break
Goblet squat stretch from Squat U
Main work:
Paused Squat: 215x7,5,4
GM: 100x3x10
Incline sit up (hands behind head): 10,7
Reverse Hyper: 210x30,20
Notes:
Not an amazing session. At this point, Iām taking what I can get with the squats and knee still being weird
That being said, I might start adding some carbs before training sessions to see if Iām better able to push. I think the squat is just suffering because I only started squatting again last week
I think the good mornings are making better at bracing
Hands behind head on the incline sit up is stupid hard. Harder than holding a 10lb plate on your chest
First night of BJJ tonight. Super pumped. Old fight kit still fits (I just look more like a sausage now)
