Had a strange pain in my ankle since Monday evening. Nothing traumatic but I did do a mud/obstacle run Sunday afternoon with nothing memorable happening. Just a nagging pain Monday but it really started bothering me off an on yesterday. No pain working through range of motion in any direction, no swelling or inflammation, no pain pushing on it and around it, it's only when I'm weight-bearing :/ Now I'm limping this morning. Oh, it feels like a burning sensation just below my lateral malleolus in case any one has input. Actually after some more walking it's actually further forward. Just guessing but looking at anatomy pictures it seems to be around the calcaneocuboid ligament? Just going to try and keep off it as much as possible. Sigh. | ||

timed my session today and i was from 10.30 to 12.20 so 1hr50m reason is because i'm doing increasing mobility between sets (which is awesome) so for example 3-4 minutes on an ankle (tons of progress) after each bench set and 2 min on calf after a pullup set and 2 min hips after a barbell row set managed to max bench at 80kg 3x5 today (lol) and strong enough again to pick up more sets afterwards also barbell row is starting to feel pretty good due to improved spine mobility (idk why i have improved spine mobility but i can bend a bit without rounding my back now, which i couldnt do at all in the past which is why i always said i cant do barbell rows let alone deadlifts. actully these are hanging/upright barbell rows so i probably cant do proper ones yet anyway lol but it feels better) + Show Spoiler + bp 80kg 3x5, 70kg 3x8 pu 55533 dip br ab mob breakfast continues to be tomato + tin of fish but i've swapped the shitty mackeral/sardines tins for larger, nicer salmon tins (£2 or maybe £2.50 for 400g, eat half obviously im not eating 400g of salmon in one go lol) also i've had a cold (mild headache + nose + feel like shit) for the past 4 days but managed to go to my class every day and get to the gym skipping only yesterday so commended . it did mean that i say stupid shit like tell a professor that its monday when its tuesday because my brain is nonfunctional when im sick lol. also WTF am i sick? need to restock those 3k vitamin D pills!!!! i talked to a girl too lol but fucked up a bit, i was like "lets go for a walk" then she was like "no i need to move my car , shall i drive u to your house?" and i was like "NO ITS REALLY CLOSE DONT BOTHER LOL" ffs. what a dumb piece of shit. anyway i was going nuts coz i havent talked to a girl in like 5 years or whatever but i've calmed down a lot now. itll take some getting used to not being isolated as fuck but my general confidence is rapidly increasing to a more normal level already, doing stuff like being the 1st person to volunteer to speak infront of class and volunteering to be class representative BECAUSE I MUST lol etc. my brain feels like its on weed where you cant remember fuck all. actually thats probably normal post-gym but worse with cold. also my middle-back feels pretty good due to increased back strength, its not clicking out of place every 10 mins!! my mattress here is a bit harder but also ive regiliously been putting something under my middle-back (like a bunched up bedsheet) to support it when sleeping). also not playing dota means im not hunched as much which made the condition noticeably worse | ||

One of the hallmarks of a great workout is basking in that post-workout loosening of focus; your body and your mind unclenching themselves from sharpening on the whetstone. | ||

He pulls 1:23/500 and 6:04/2k though, so he's clearly a top-tier rower despite his bench. It seems to be the norm though, not the exception. 6 minute 2k wtf. I don't row much but i was exhausted after a 7:30 2k | ||
