Sunday June 21

Went for a nice long walk/hike today, around 50-60 minutes. :D 

Breakfast: Yogurt and some other stuff I seem to have forgotten...

Lunch: Leftover Indian food

Dinner: Waited too long before writing this down and I seem to have forgotten this one. Oops...

Yeah, I should really know better than to wait more than a day before recording stuff by now. Oh well. It's not the end of the world. :P 
 

Monday June 22

Breakfast: Half an apple, coffee, yogurt with strawberries, blueberries, banana slices, and granola, later midmorning half a wrap with roast beef

Lunch: Leftover Indian food (still good 3rd day!)

Dinner: Salad, last little bit Indian leftovers, and some carrots with hummus

Bonus: PT session!

Did mostly lighter exercises, including ball ground slams & tosses, deadlift form practice, light weight farmer's carries, and some bodyweight rows and face pulls. Even if it was an easier workout than I'd expected it was nice to get to work with a personal trainer again, if only for a little bit, and it was good to find out that even though I haven't had a mirror to check myself for the last few months my form is still doing quite well. :)

Sunday June 28

breakfast: oatmeal with granola mixed in, coffee, and crackers with hummus

lunch: leftover pesto shrimp & cauliflower rice

dinner: ordered in the sushi for a home D&D session

Went for a walk today, nothing huge, but I definitely got outside to move around and stretch my legs, which felt really good.

 

Monday June 29

Breakfast: oatmeal with granola mixed in and coffee

Lunch: kale salad with pepperoni and a couple lunchmeat slices

Dinner: mixed veggie stir-fry with cauliflower rice

 

Went for a 15 minute jog. I think I probably did at least a mile given my speed and how tired I was at the end. Along the way I stopped at the playground that I usually pass on these jogs and, since they have a pull-up bar, decided to try lowering myself from the top of a pull-up position just to see how hard it was. I did three overhand grip at one underhand grip and then my arms felt pretty tired out so I decided not to push it. I'd love to try to add these into my workouts more regularly; despite worries about my wrists/grip strength I was able to do a few reps and since it's noticeably harder it will build strength more quickly. :D

Tuesday June 30

Meals:

Breakfast: protein shake after workout (25g protein), a couple slices of ham and a bunch of pieces of pepperoni (~10g protein), yogurt (15g protein), and then a veggie burger with half a wrap and some hummus (15g protein) midmorning because even after all my earlier breakfast I still felt like I could eat a cow. Evidently I had a hard workout or something… :P

Lunch: fried tilapia filet (20g protein) with pesto and cauliflower rice

Dinner: curried lentils (10g protein) & cauliflower rice, a bit more yogurt (10g protein), and, since we finally got more groceries, carrots and hummus ;) 

Total protein: ~105g

 

Workout:

Warm-up: jog around the neighborhood. On the way back I did two more reps of lowering myself from the top of a pull-up position. I could tell my arms were still tired from yesterday.

Superset 1 (3x):

  • overhead press/chest fly combo 8lbs 10x

  • Bulgarian split squat 10x

  • jackknife 10x

Superset 2 (3x):

  • lateral arm raises 5lbs 10x

  • bicep curls 8lbs 8x first & second times, 4x third time

  • jumping squats 10x

 

I did a little bit of roll practice between this superset and the next, still trying to work on keeping the proper leg in front when I come out of the roll. It's definitely throwing me off a little bit; over the last few years every time I've practiced I was doing it slightly wrong without realizing and now I have to unlearn what I spent all that time learning.

 

Superset 3 (2x):

  • elevated push-ups 10x

  • bodyweight rows 10x

  • pistol squats 5x per leg

 

Cooldown: extra long stretching routine with emphasis on arm/shoulder stretches.

Notes: I had started the day slightly sore from the reverse pull-ups I did the day before and then proceeded to do an arm-intensive workout. If the four reps I did the previous day made me a little sore this morning I can only imagine how my arms will be after this… I think Thursday is going to have to be a leg day. :P

Well… I just realized that even though I've been recording what I'm doing I have once again neglected to update this thread for a huge period of time. So I'm just gonna catch up on that now. I'll break it up into smaller posts rather than doing a single absurdly long one to make it easier for myself to see what happened when.

Also finally got to work on parkour rolls! :D The grass was damp, but only from dew, not rain, so it wasn't muddy, and at this point I was determined enough that I decided to "roll with it" anyway. ;) Bad puns aside, I thought I was able to get back my basic knowledge pretty quickly. Muscle memory is an amazing thing. Still, definitely get good to keep working on those in the weeks to come.

Lunch: yogurt and granola (15 g protein) shortly before noon to tide me over while I finished making my main lunch, homemade Panang curry (30g protein) + cauliflower rice! Let's just say, even if it took two hours it was so totally worth the effort. This was beyond delicious.

Dinner:

Workout:

warm up: short jog and various light movements

Superset 1 (3x)

  • pistol squats 8x per leg

  • lateral arm raises 5lbs 10x

  • bicycle crunches 24x

  • decline plank ~30 sec with 10x shoulder push-up

  • side lunge 8x per leg

Cooldown: basic stretching routine

Notes: I'm experimenting with adding a little bit of light weight to the Romanian deadlifts to see whether or not it causes my hamstrings to cramp the day after the workout. I'm hoping not since this is still absurdly easy, but my track record suggests otherwise.

Wednesday July 8

Breakfast: Oatmeal, coffee, a few pieces of leftover veggies & pepperoni

Lunch: Leftover roast veggies & grilled eggplant/zucchini, a few carrots and crackers with hummus & pepperoni/lunchmeat

Dinner: Improvised stirfry including zucchini, onions, garlic scapes, and shrimp with cauliflower rice

 

Thursday July 9

Workout:

Warm-up: various light movements

Superset 1 (3x):

  • face pulls 10x

  • lateral arm raises 6lbs 8x

  • bentover reverse fly 5lbs 8x

Superset 2 (3x):

  • dead bug with 4lb hand weights20x

Notes: increased the weight on the arm raises, reverse flys, and RDLs by 1lb. Definitely making progress on the first two without any drawbacks but I'm still watching for my tight-hamstring problem. Even if I keep increasing the weight I'm using by only 1lb increments I know somewhere between 5 pounds (which was fine) and 10 pounds (which caused cramping/tightness despite being super easy) I'm going to start noticing day-after super tightness showing up again. With any luck the onset of that tightness will be gradual enough that I can start working on that in a more effective manner.

Breakfast: protein shake after workout (25g protein), two fried eggs with a toasted wrap (~17g protein), a few pieces of leftover roast veggies, and a little bit of lunchmeat (5g protein)

Workout:

Did a group workout class via Zoom in the morning and followed up with some basic strength exercises during the afternoon including rows, elevated push-ups, tricep extensions, chest flys, and a few pistol squats
