Long meetings into the evening meant I got very late ... but at least it was cooler, and one of those times I felt really good. I swear my hair isn't really that grey 👨🦳😱
This: www.guidedtrack.com/programs/2djuges/run was fun, but also a bit icky somehow... not sure what to make of my 'results':
So with AI I thought I could saunter into work at 10:00, write a few prompts, review output, merge code and be on the beach at 16:00. Our clients seem to think I can pull GPUs out my bumhole to run their workloads … so a long day of discussions meant just something annoyingly quick for me today :(
Took out my work grumpiness on some heavy things; so I head to bed as a different Mr. Men....
Felt really good today. Still amazed I have enough confidence to wear a tight-fitting t-shirt! Last bit of fat is driving me potty though, why won't it go?! Maybe I need a trainer...?
Tired today, and rather 'phoned it in' so no records, but I did some work also... still not got the hang of the Bulgarian split squat.... I mean really, how hard can it be? Very hard. Very very hard.
Work meetings until 9p.m., but so pleased I got off my arse and did this - my favourite push routine. Now I can go to bed a very happy boy indeed! 🎉
I felt strong tonight - I can go to bed a happy boy! For me, back days are best days.
Feeling more like myself again but today's push wasn't the best. I have the triceps of a Disney princess! Not much changed this month, which given I was on holiday for some of it maybe isn't so bad.
Work was long and annoying again, but I had a super push day to look forward too. Feeling quite accomplished with that volume, which makes up for my foolishness bashing my head with the overhead triceps extension exercise. My form must be terrible 😱
Finally back to normal! Phew. But, are these the thighs of a man, or of poultry?! 😆
A serious dose of the Sunday scaries for me - coming off a two week holiday. I got to drive my silly car around #Norway, where I also became addicted to solskinnsboller! My quest for leanness suffered a serious setback 😆 Norway might be the best country in the world; I cannot wait to go back
I call this expression: Man searching forlornly for his bicep 😆 Sigh, not much change this month - still a bit fat 😢 Got to figure out something different.
Experimented with a deload week while the heatwave occurred, and maybe it helped - today I felt *fantastic* and managed lots of volume (for me!) for my favourite push workout... I hope it lasts!
Slept very poorly, but happy about this - well I was especially happy when it was over! 😀 I think I'll use the heatwave as an excuse for a deload week and some extra recovery.
One of those days where I felt *great*. If only I could stop eating chocolate I could join the ranks of the shirtless gym selfie brigade! 😀
Felt strong today, so happy flex! Sigh, will I ever look as strong as I feel? (Maybe it doesn’t matter?!) Also, has a man ever been in more need of a haircut?! 😆
Felt weak today - I do not know why. I was a physicist, trained in observation, but I do not understand my own body! Grr. Had plenty of sleep, plenty of food but... it should have been great. I need more data, clearly!
Nice leg day - I was determined to get it in before work goes crazy again. I think I need a new job -- the current one is interfering with my fitness goals!
My favourite push ... which I did earlier than normal and felt *great*... but now I have to survive the rest of Monday without this to look forward too 😢
This was excellent - I am so tired. Shorts were tighter when I finished ... always a good sign! 😀
Active rest day for me, on my birthday! 🎉 Bad planning, I would rather have celebrated with my favourite pull routine. Compared to last year though: W: 73.4kg (⬇️ 4.75kg) BF: ~14% (⬇️ 4%) Still 187 cm, so not shrinking yet ... it won't be long though! 😆
I was so desperate to get every last drop of my post-workout shake today that I essentially stuck my face in the shaker... then walked around for a while with chocolate protein shake on the bridge of my nose 😱
All I want, is to look like I do when I have a pump … is it *really* so much to ask?! :)
Favourite push to end what seems to have been a long week, even though it was shorter than normal! Teeny-tiny triceps 😢 I must do better!
Blue sky! Last week was winter now I am hot in my shorts and t-shirt at nearly 9pm!
Random flower from my evening walk. No idea what it is but I like it. Only nature can make pink and yellow look good together 😁
