Awesome pull day for me - and I didn't even over eat! I was only 162lbs this morning, which is pretty light for someone who is 6'2".
I think it is because I slept until 9a.m. 🤫 Working primarily with the west coast of the US has some advantages I suppose!
A workout summary from the hevy workout tracking application. This workout is called "Glute Focus Short", it took 47 minutes, there were 2 personal records and only a total of 4,800 pounds was moved. Some of the exercises were: a warm-up bike ride, hip thrusts, glute bridge, single-leg glute bridge and the glute kickback on floor.
Mostly a rest day for me today -- but didn't want to leave out the biggest muscle of them all!

Sigh, well they have to support that AI / Data Center capex somehow... but surely I am worth more than a B300 GPU... or even ⅓ of a B300 GPU!
A simple workout summary from the Hevy workout tracking application. This workout took 84 minutes, consisted of 25 sets and moved 53,289 pounds of weight.
After my fantastically lazy morning / early afternoon ... chest day was indeed, best day! I am a bit worried my chest is out of proportion with the rest of me. Pondering swapping a pec exercise for side-delt exercise in these routines.
Sigh, and now Sunday scaries at full blast...
I had such a decadent morning - couldn't be bothered with chores so binged the first three episodes of #Plur1bus with cups of tea and chocolate!
So good - the little details identifying a Gilligan show are plentiful and Rhea Seehorn is excellent as always.
I know who my 'pirate lady' would be...
Finally saw this - excellent - not sure how much of the story is true, but the acting was amazing.
How history might have been different had Cohn not taken that first case.
The BBC should learn from this and counter sue for $5b for reputational damage to it!

Good leg day - think I'm still working off last night's curry! It is the only time I am a little grumpy about being somewhat tall (187cm) - it doesn't seem to matter how hard I try, I have the legs of a cartoon chicken...

Time for a lie-down 🛌
A workout summary from the Hevy workout tracking app. This workout is called “Pull Four - H” and last 88 minutes. There were 8 exercises and 24 sets with a total weight of 37,039 pounds moved.
Nice pull day for me today, but I had to cut it short because of nutty work. 15 hours at work today, but I still spent 88 minutes working out. I am feeling quite pleased with myself. The large and tasty beef massaman curry I had out may have helped too! Now, it’s very definitely bedtime.

On the plus side, it’s making me feel young!
Definitely getting me into the weekend mood…

Somewhat tough push day for me today. Am quite pleased with myself over the last week. I feel a bit sore, which is unusual for me, especially my elbows -- why? 🤷♂️ -- so looking forward to tomorrow's "active rest" day.

A personal record info card from the Hevy workout training application. This shows the user managed to move 5890 pounds in a single Romanian deadlift set.
Never so happy to finish leg day as I was today! My nemesis exercise, the Bulgarian Split Squat, defeated me again as I toppled over during the final reps.
Working out when hungry is no fun - I am in awe of anyone that can do it. I even licked the underside of my shaker clean tonight! 😆
Sometimes music matches your mood just perfectly…

So-so pull day for me today. Back in my small calorie deficit and rather ran out of steam. Nice pump though - all I want is to be that big all the time. I will wake up tomorrow morning with biceps the size of almonds... 😭

mostly lazy day for me today and walk and a short workout, which given I have rugby and F1 to watch was a master-stroke of planning on my part.
Yeah, ok, it was a total accident!
Also, I hate fireworks. FFS can't we get past those as a species?

My favourite push routine and it was fantastic! 😁
Brunch with my sister, so treats galore and had plenty of energy. Project: "see my abs again" can go on hold for a day. Although with all the bacon and then the salmon I made, I had more than 250g of protein today, so hopefully put it to good use!
Interesting, but alarming. In the UK too - so I was very happy to see what happened in the Netherlands recently. Let's hope we can learn from the Dutch!

Nice leg day to end the week -- and unlike yesterday I wasn't grumpy. I think it must have been all those snacks yesterday. I was a pound heavier this morning ... erk!
It is the weekend... whoo hooo! I really need it; it must be nearly time for another holiday.
A workout summary from the Hevy workout tracking application. This workout lasted 95 minutes, consisted of 26 sets, and a total moved of 38,390 pounds.
I was in such a bad mood before this, so needed a nice pull day to sort myself out, and it worked! I find nothing cheers me up like moving some heavy objects back and forth.
I was hungry today, so I've eaten all my 'only in emergency snacks', which were supposed to last another four days! 😆
A workout summary from the Hevy workout tracking application. This workout was called "Push Four H", took 106 minutes, consisted of 9 exercises and 29 sets. The total volume moved was 38,640 pounds.
A rather dismal push day. Didn't get close to any PRs. I guess they can't all be great, but I ate, I slept ... not sure why it was so bad.
So I head to bed disgruntled with myself.
I am a bit of an #AI fanboy - if nothing else it keeps me fed and a roof over my head - but TIL that nVidia is now worth more than the economic output of Germany - the *whole* country!
OK, that is obviously insane.

Good start to the week, though boy I was tired after that! My nemesis exercise defeated me though, as I got close to failure I wobbled over on more than one occasion... grrrr....

Fascinating and disturbing. I learned a lot.
As much as I miss the Pacific northwest, I am happy I no longer live in the US.

Although tough it was a good month.
Just when I am getting disheartened my scale gives me a present by recording under 10% BF for the first time! One measurement is mostly meaningless, but seeing a number less than ten... well I got a bit emotional!
A workout summary from the Hevy workout tracking application. This workout took 106 minutes, consisted of 9 exercises and there were 2 personal records. The total volume was 58,700 pounds.
Nice push day to end the month. Monthly check-in (versus September):
- average weight: 164.8 lbs ( ⬇️2 lbs)
- average bf%: 11.36% ( ⬇️0.8 % ) (value is wrong, but I like to believe the *change*)
Becoming disheartened - it was the toughest month yet, and I really don't look any different :(
A workout summary from the Hevy workout tracking application. This workout was called "Leg Four - H". The workout volume was 64,724 pounds, took 103 minutes and included four personal records. Some of the exercises were the barbell squat, the dumbbell lunge, the leg extension, some standing cable glute kickbacks and single leg standing calf raises. There were four more exercises.
Good leg day - but I overate so needed to put some of those 3,000 calories to good use! I had plenty of fuel. Sigh, will write it off as a bad day, and try again tomorrow.
Although, after that, I had to sit down to drink my protein shake! 😆
