Training Logs and Autism

-----2/23/24----- TM deadlift 365x1 Shiko a(14,10,10) Single leg deficit hip thrusts 3xf (Can't remember.... but it was a pr :(... ) Handstand pushup practice (various)  Bar tuck rotations 3x5(?) I have been very bad about logging my after-work sessions.  I've missed two of them. I usually get occupied with something else and then by the time I remember, my next workout rolls along. In any case, I use my after-work sessions as a lighter day. I don't have a lot of time to train and a lot of times I'm also very tired. Deadlifts felt very strong on this day. Shiko feel amazing. I want to sneak more shiko in my week because I like LARPing as a sumo wrestler.  -----2/25/24----- TM squat 275x3 Various assisted handstand pushups 3x ---CVT--- Chin-up (13, 8, 6, 7, 5) 39 Wide assisted chin-up (8, 7, 6, 6, 6) 33 Lat-up (14, 14) 28 Push-up (20, 17, 13, 10, 7) 67 Girl push-up (13, 12, 8) 33 ---  ---Superset--- Single leg hypers (20,12,12)e Leg raise 5,5,4 --- My squats are start...

Warm-up --- 5 min treadmill walk 3x atg tuck jump 3x Half tuck jump 3x tuck jump Handstand practice 15x squats 5x BSS --- I've been getting more sleep at night. My jumps were noticeably more powerful. Handstands aren't feeling so great these days. I probably need to devote more time to practicing them outside of my warmup. 100 rep marathon --- Single leg squat (15, 13, 10, 10, 8)e, 56e Bulgarian split squat (20, 15, 9)e, 46e --- Rep PR, volume PR and I got all of the work done in less total sets. I was able to push my sets further so I think I had to rest longer between them. Huge win overall. 100 rep work leaves my legs extremely sore for almost the whole week.  Split-arm depth pike pushup  (7, 6, 6)e I like this movement for strength development but I need to find a way to include a traditional handstand pushup against the wall for my primary movement to develop specific strength.  Wide Inverted row (15, 10, 10) I was surprised by how many reps I got on my first set....

Squat TM 275x3 With all of the lower body work I do combined with having a much higher peak, it's no surprise that this felt light on my legs.... my core on the other hand felt a little weak. My lower back especially feels encumbered.  I'm keeping a set of TM squats to keep a feel for heavier weight and to see how my training effects it.  CVT --- Neutral grip chins (12, 8, 5, 5, 5) 35 Lat-ups (10, 8, 10, 10, 11) 49 Close-grip lat-ups (8, 8) 16 Pushups (21, 15, 10, 10, 6) 62 Girl pushups (11, 9, 10, 7, 10) 47 --- I had it in my mind that I wanted either three lower body movements or to alternate two lower body movements for my 100 rep volume work,  but the 100 rep single leg squats leave my quads devastated and I don't want to perpetuate my upper/lower imbalance.  Besides that I have push and pull goals I'd like to accomplish. It was a hit to my ego to start with such basic movements but I train for results, not for my ego. I didn't like how the lat-ups felt. I need ...

Warmup --- x3 atg tuck jump x3 Half tuck jump x3 tuck jump Handstand practice --- This past week, maybe week and a half has left me feeling tired. It's hard for me to generate a lot of power. Maybe I need to do something to warm up for my warmup to stay more consistent. Ideally, I want to do around 20-30 jumps with 3 breaks for Handstand practice.  100 rep marathon --- Single leg squat (13, 11, 8, 5, 6)e , 43e Bulgarian split squat (15, 12, 11, 12, 7)e, 57e --- I had meant to do this last session but I was too fatigued. It's very possible that I was sick. 1.5x week frequency on my 100 rep SLS is ideal, but it seems like even 1x week is good so long as I fit some barbell work in. I gained a lot of reps on both my primary and secondary movement. Tertiary regression was not necessary.  Superset --- Elevated single leg hip thrust (12,10,10)e Hanging leg raise (4,4,3)e --- I had to do bodyweight only for this session, so I opted for elevated single leg hip thrusts. I got more total...

Squat x1 @ 275 Deficit sumo SLDL 3x5 @225 General acrobatic practice and handstand work Bad day. Late post. Might have been sick....

Warmup  --- x3 atg tuck jumps x3 Half tuck jumps x3 tuck jumps Handstand practice  x9 bounds Handstand practice  x6 running jumps  Handstand practice --- Awesome! Hand balancing is getting a lot more natural. On my first attempt I managed a very long hold. Maybe 15-20 seconds.  Bench Press + Pseudo Planche Pushup  3x5 @ 160 + (6,5,3) This agonistic superset combo was surprising tough. I'm enjoying the Olympic barbell over the fat bar. Setup is much more consistent.  Floating Barbell Row + wide Inverted row 3x5 @ 135 + (7,6,5) This felt easier than the bench/pushup combo. Pre-fatigue from the barbell made my calisthenics rows lose reps. Not a surprise.  100 rep marathon --- Single Leg Squat   (10,8,5,7,6)e - 36e Bulgarian Split Squat  (12,10,10,9,8)e - 49e Atg step-up 15e --- THIS was the fun part of my session that I planned everything around. My quads and glutes were sore for days after (I'm posting this late).   Superset...
