damn to hear about dem hips, ive suspected for a long time i got something similar but haven't seemed to have too many issues so whatever. good luck with rehab
and NMDA is a glutamate receptor, buuuut you know what i actually mean
Yeah, i need to fix that ASAP since its basically causing the compensatory patterns that are making me injure myself. Get rid of root cause=no injury risk=maybe someday I might be strong.
Lol I googled it and it was coming up with ketamine and crap lol. Was like "wtf" then remembered the gif so all was well :P

TBARS, wtf lol. Got a major second wind going after my second set of 3+35. Think ill pyramid up more instead of this wave load that I've been unintentionally doing.
Session overall was actually really good. Pump was nuts and shoulders felt really good so no complaining here
On that note, I was really in my groove with bench today. Kept my form really nice and tight and cotdayum power output was great! Need to keep in mind my setup cues and also my warmup I used today. Shrugs made em feel bangin!
Went to aunt's for Xmas dinner #1 tonight. Rough guesstimate on what I ate then topped up on cals when I got home (dat dere pasta and Poptarts, no protein lol).

Today went very well. Helped out with making da foodz for dinner tonight.
Note: ! Means I made it
Roast turkey Spiced roasted sweet potato and apple mash!
Sautéed French beans!
Steamed heirloom carrots
Cran sauce
Gravy
Stuffing Zucchini Boats w Balsamin-Cherry-Quinoa filling topped with fresh mint!
Everything came out fantastic especially the zucchini boats if I don't say so myself. It was funny, cuz like usual, I still was goi off instinct rather than recipe, and I was happy with the results! Will have pics up in morning.
Enjoyed some good champagne and goodies. Oh, and chocolate... Lots of chocolate
Hot dayum, parents got me science and practice of strength training ebook and a MOFUGGIN IPAD MINI!!!!1!1!111!1!1111111uno¡! Bricks are still being shat. As soon as I finish reading optimizing strength training (as per perp's recommendation) by kraemer et al, Imma read zatsiorski's book. Fawkinstoked about this Xmas.
My mom really liked her gift as well.
Brother made me this. So cool.
Merry Christmas to all. Hope you guys/gals enjoyed your time with family and friends.

how is that filling? wtf i have so lost my sense of full lol. i routinely pound 300+g pasta and veg before i get around to a 1.5 batch of a loaf for dessert and am generally comfy. on top of about a liter of water. fuuuuuu jealous of your ablility to be
Meh, I usually eat it as dessert after dinner. Dinner's usually run around 1500 cals. Dinners usually to always include a pound of veggies or a bag of salad. Volume ftw. So the loaf + dinner usually fill me up.
For an hour or so. Haha. Hope your holiday went well bud

Looking forward to the food pics, the stuff you made sounds hng worthy.
agreed. it really hit homewith me especially since i have a habit of losign track of the big picture and trying to push PRs every single session on everythign which in the past has simply injured me.
i also liked the point of recreating the perfect (mental and physical) enviroment for each and every rep. tried it with RDLs today and damn felt good.

First rep for te right side was more of a mindfuk than anything i was just plain scared. Went way better than anticipated.
Morning weight: 153.5
Was really happy with today. Decided to forego squatting since even on my first warmup set, dem hips are still feeling crappy. Really helped with deads and subsequently RDLs. Speaking of which, those were bangin! Hips were feeling on point which means that they're healing
Leg press made my hips hurt a but later in the day, but nothing major. Gonna go a bit lighter on the single legged ones next time and see if that helps.
Went for a really nice long walk with Bentley (my dog) this afternoon after lunch. The weather is really nice right now because its cold enough for snow (so it looks pretty) but not cold enogh that the cold cuts off circulation to your brain and other eternities.

sick deadlifts man! Congrats. Food looks bomb as always. Mirin the iPad mini bro. I got me a new laptop so my editing and posting aren't a super pain while I'm home anymore. Glad the leg press doesn't hurt the hip man; I'm sure with time you'll go back to squatting circles around me =P

Thanks. Nothing close to you tho. There was a time when they were similar. Now you just blow me out f the water lol.
New laptop sounds sweet.
Leg press made it kinda tender but it was bearable (ie I could train through it). Will hit up some higher reps with it next time around ad see how that makes it feel.

Bleh, w/e session today. Lifted with my dad cuz he wanted to so ended up having to wait until much later to train. Apparently I fukn hate lifting with people. Annoyed as fuk about boy being alone all session. Ended up feeling really futile by about halfway through pendlays and that didn't go away anytime soon.
Appetite was pretty shot pwo due to a lack of perceived intensity.
Asides from that tho, day was half decent I guess. Got a bit of work done.

We all have our -10% days, as Paul Carter would put it. Your day doesn't quite look like one of those, but it seems you feel it was

I think it was meant to say not alone. Damn you autocorrect.
But yeah agreed on that. Love his philosophy. Objectively, this was more of an average session than a -10% since I still hit all my planned weights but my mood was just off cus I didn't feel into it (cuz I continuously had to take out my earbuds to coach my dad)

The Indian Turkey Curry looks HNNNGGGGGG btw.
Yup. It's my "alone time" where I don't have to all to anyone and can completely decompress.
Thanks. Taste could us some minor tweaks but not bad for making it without a recipe and being white
