This is more of a Lamarckian perspective than it is a modern evolutionary mechanism. Theres a widespread conception that the human body is a well engineered machine optimally designed for certain...

At the moment- the most recent African Archaeological Review, an ethnography on the Ariaal, and a book of Swahili poems I got with the intention of using it to keep my swahili sharp but which I have...

Front Squats 135x5x3, then 95x10, 75x10, 65x10,55x10,45x10

Did some other light leg stuff but im going to try reducing upper body frequency and see if it helps the shoulder.

10/7/2012

Still cant back squat, but my range of motion in my shoulder is improving.

Press - Deloaded to 95x5x3, 110x1 Felt pretty light, only gave 2 minutes in between sets without a problem....

10/5/2012

So I was hit by a car while riding my bike home, because I guess the concept of a stop sign is too complex for some. No serious injuries but my left rotator cuff seems slightly injured....

Squat 185x5x3 Ok, definitely gunna keep doing middle of the week light days.These felt heavy but they were deep and they got done.

Weird workout

Squat 180x5x2, 135x6 This was ugly, not sure what happened but my hamstrings have been feeling really weird.

Press 102.5x4x3 I kept thinking I could get that last rep...

Ive been thinking about reducing the frequency of squats, since thats the only real issue. Everything else is recovering just fine for SS to continue normally. Alternating high and low weight was...

9/23/2012

Gained a few pounds but Ive been eating a ton of shit at free food events for the last two days. Seems to have helped at least my upper body though. Gotta figure out how to deal with my...

9/21/2012

Took some days off, ate a ton, had a good workout.

Squats 175x5x3 Deloaded a bit, and it felt heavier than I had hoped it would but still hit depth no problem. I remember not long...

9/18/2012

Squats- Became pretty clear during warm ups that this was just not going to happen today. I need more recovery time, although it is probably my fault in some way.

Bench Press...

9/13/2012

Starting to hit some problems.

Squat 185x5x3
Bench 140x5x3 - Forgot my microplates which is just as well since I barely made reps

9/11/2012

Crappy workout. Just low energy despite a bunch of caffeine and I dont feel like I got much done. Definitely one of those times where life is trying to interfere with my god damn...

Didnt sleep great last night, lots of personal bullshit- I hit my numbers but just barely for everything. Got in, got out, sat in a sauna for a while.

Squat 180x5x3 Much better than...

9/6/2012

Only up a pound somehow despite a big birthday bison burger and probably too many beers. Finally got my 3" belt from bestbelts in the mail so I was really excited to try it out.

Squat...

BW 134

Decided not to take two days off since tomorrow is my Bday and I dont much feel like I should have to get up early and haul my ass into the gym. Body weight is up a bunch but...

9/2/2012

Squat- 170x5x3 Crushed it. Nice to finally have a good squat workout. I think as weight went up I started to position the more more over my scapula, and I made sure it was a little lower...

8/31/2012

Squats- Worked up to 130x5x2 As dynamic as possible. Finally finished putting my new bike together so Ive been riding it a shit ton, legs were a bit tired. Ill get back on track with...

8/29/2012

My fears of a widly overcrowded university weightroom early in the AM turned out to be unfounded, so I think this will work out well.

SQUAT 165x5x3- wasnt totally happy with last...
