No longer doing abductors/adductors on Sundays as the Bulgarian split squats the day prior make these worthless to do (based on the loss of strength I have on these relative to Thursdays). Otherwise this was all good.

Woke up weighing 147.4 today. I told myself when I got to 147 I'd start adding in cardio, so here we are.
We'll see how I want to keep doing cardio. Now that I finally finished updating my website I can devote more time to fitness in general so there's really no excuse.

Happy with all of this. I decided to go back down on calories a bit as it was clear I was putting on some fat and I'd rather maintain (at least for the next 6 weeks).

Today's workout:
Paused bulgarian split squats: 70x8 (been having more leg soreness from these than I would like so I'm taking it down to 1 set only, will go up in sets if I stop making progress)
Functional trainer bench press: 130x10/130x5/130x5
Seated rows: 170x10/170x7/170x6

Very pleased with myself for getting this done. Both my personal life and my work life are not going great right now. I don't want to get into the personal life details but the work life is due to the fact that school just started and we are getting tons of sick kids coming to clinic; we are being overwhelmed in many respects and it sucks with no end in sight.

Today's workout:
High bar back squats: 205x3x6
Weighted dips: BW+60x6,6,3
Weighted hammer grip chins: BW+60x6,5,4
That's it, felt good. Was a bit fatigued going into this. Squats are heavier now with the form I'm using (heels elevated) and I'm gonna change up my routine. Still thinking about how, but I want to go down to 4 training days weekly. I also want to squat twice weekly and bench press twice weekly as I think 1 time a week isn't enough for either movement for me. May end up going with an upper/lower routine, we'll see what I come up with.

Ended up having the cat euthanized two days ago. Still sad about it and didn't workout the last couple days in part due to that and to also let my body rest. My right pec has been slightly strained but is recovering quickly.
Today's workout:
Paused high bar back squats: 225x5
Paused deadlifts: 365x5
Paused standing shoulder press: 115x5
Leaning back lat pulldowns: 160x6, then seated rows: 160x8
Gonna start my next routine on Thursday.
As an aside, for the first time in many years I am caught up on reading all of the papers I have wanted to read. I still have >200 to annotate (I generally go through papers once and highlight them and then go through them again while taking notes on them), but I've at least read all of them and my website is updated with them.

Thank you! It's even more difficult for me recently as I changed my squat form to heels elevated and feet closer together to make it much more quad-dominant. My quads have always been a weakpoint.

Unfortunately I seem to have some gastroenteritis-type thing and have had stomach issues all day. Thus, no training today and probably not tomorrow. Haven't actually vomited but I have come close. No diarrhea either (yet), just have some nausea/stomach pain. We'll see how this progresses in the next day.
Separately, I have finally gotten around to making a YouTube channel. If anyone viewing this wants to watch this video and provide any constructive criticism here I would appreciate it as I'm new to video editing. I have a lot of knowledge and need to figure out how to share it effectively, lol. Depending on how sick I get I may or may not log on to respond to any comments tomorrow.

Alright, got over the illness but was still low on energy for a couple of days. 2 days ago I worked up to paused high bar back squats 230x5 and paused deadlifts 365x5. Today I did:
Paused flat barbell bench press: 195x1, 175x4, 165x5, 155x6
Paused leaning underhand lat pulldowns: 150x1, 135x3x5 (I didn't not use any lower back during these so they were strict but I think it's a more effective movement if I do use my lower back some)
Standing shoulder press: 135x1, 95x6
Seated rows: 200x, 170x5 (did these with full protraction/retraction of the shoulder blades)
Should get back to regular training on Saturday.
Feedback I got on the video was essentially I need a good microphone so I purchased one and it should arrive tomorrow. And adjustment arm so I don't have to lean into it will not arrive for another 2 weeks most likely but at least the sound quality should go up a lot with the mic alone once I figure out how to set it up appropriately.

Today I did:
Paused high bar back squats: 235x5
Deficit Romanian deadlifts: 275x5
Paused bulgarian split squats: 55x5
That's it. I went ahead and purchased heeled weightlifting shoes as I've been squatting more with heels elevated and it has gone reasonably well. Way back in the day I tore my right meniscus squatting in weightlifting shoes and while I do not logically believe that is the reason, I have nonetheless had a mental block regarding this. It's time to move past that, start bulking, and make legit practice. Shoes should arrive Tuesday.
