Augeleven’s log

[hector]

I agree with you so strongly that deadlifts are dumb. And I wish I could act on that knowledge. But I just wanna increase my deadlift. Which, again, I know doesn’t matter.
This circle of dumb has been my thought process for a decade.

Gig alert: I’m playing a gig. Not a big gig, or a gig where I’m getting a bunch of money, but by far and away the closest thing I’ve done to “real people” music. I’m playing lead guitar and backing vocals in a Weezer cover band and we are playing the Blue album front to back (ans an 30th anniversary thing) and about half of Pinkerton.
I subbed for a country band on bass a million years ago. That doesn’t count because 1) I read off a music stand and 2) I probably sat down for the entire gig.
The metal band stuff doesn’t count because again 1) music stands and 2) the music was definitely new music-adjacent.

That's awesome, man!

Late to the party but congrats on the gig. That sounds super cool (I'm pretty jelly of you music guys as I can barely nod my head to a rhythm).

Thanks man. We are doing the same show at the opening of a local carnival fair, so my kids will be able to see me play, which they’ve never done, and probably won’t at this one either. Those coaster aren’t gonna roll themselves.

[augeleven]

I might format this better, but whatever

Pulled the plug at 24 minutes
Press
45x5
75x5
95x5
115x5 misload and grindy
120x3 supposed to 5 crisp but hard reps
95x5x3-4 then gave up

Superset with
Pullaparts green x30,30,28
Goblet squats 52x10,12,12 paused
Row 165x3

Whatever.

Gonna punish myself with a nice easy Murph Movie tomorrow. Maybe Top Secret!, maybe a John Wick.

Back of the envelope math says 2 miles x 13 minutes each and 20 rounds of 2 minute rounds is 66 minutes.
My time to beat is a nice leisurely 1:11:48 done on 5/28/21 while watching Return of the Living Dead.

I’m switching back to lifting 3 times a week. 4 is too much, even if I ditch conditioning, which was probably a big mistake.

Goblet squats 52x10,12,12 paused

Loving all this goblet squatting in the logs.

Don't blame you. I have no understanding of how anyone lifts two days in a row, more than very occasionally.

I thought it was kinda funny when I noticed my son singing Like a Stone to himself around the house one day...

Hell yeah

[augeleven]

Ok
Diet is still off the chain. Feeling very heavy. So…

Murph Time!!!!

The boundaries
-Indoors
-treadmill
-strict chin-ups
-5/10/15 partitions
-James Bond and John Wick on the tube

Strategy
Sandbag the run around 12 minute pace
Do the first 10 rounds in the 1.5 and the last 10 on the 2
Try to sprint at the very end to feel cool.

Results
Unweighted indoor Murph in 1:00:40
Previous Murph was 1:11:48 on 5/28/21 under similar circumstances.

Last time strength endurance was the limiting factor, specifically with pull-ups. This time around my limitations were cardio, and to be honest, guts. I could have pushed myself harder and shaved a couple of minutes off easily. Perhaps next year I can go way sub-hour

Gonna take a deload week to figure out what happens next.
Something practical programming/Andy baker/Bromley adjacent I think.

[broseph]

Nice Murphin' aug.

We're doing ours on Monday, but I'm going to be shoveling mulch all weekend... I might chicken out and just do a half Murph (unweighted). We'll see.

[EricK]
