Re: DR's Constant Battle Against ADD
This whole recovery period might be more effective if I stopped playing basketball. There was a minor hip check when rebounding which knocked my legs out from under me which resulted in me falling, flat upon my left asscheek and forearm, from the peak of my jump. Fortunately, as a very white guy, that wasn't THAT far, so the only "injury" was bruises and three days of mild soreness when I tried to rest my arm on an armrest.

Re: DR's Constant Battle Against ADD
Early half of this week was very little more than than retesting the broad jump and dicking around. I did broad jump an even 9 feet three times, so that's a consistent 6 inch improvement in something like 8 weeks, with no actual broad jump practice.
Monday 8-24-2019
Broad Jump: 9' x3
Squats: 535 lbs x1 525 lbs x1 495 lbs x2 405 x5
Bench Press: 305 lbs x1 300 lbs x1 285 lbs x2 245 lbs x5
Lying Triceps Extensions 4x10
Tuesday 8-25-2019
Deadlifts: 535 lbs x1 515 lbs x1 495 lbs x2
Basketball: 3 games
Curls: 75 lbs 5x10
Wednesday 8-26-2019
Paused Bench Press: 275 lbs 5x2
Pull Ups: 5x10
Thursday was a Squat Test day. I got 545 lbs without any more trouble than I expected, but couldn't get 565 lbs past that usual sticking point about a third of the way up and failed it. And shooting around for a bit afterwards caused the inside of my left ankle and slightly above it to ache like hell. It had occasionally felt a very wee bit sore when jumping rope or the like, but it was considerably worse this time. Even just sitting in the car, it dully ached. An ice pack and some Advil did a lot of good, but it is still occasionally bothering me when I actually bounce around, and it's goddamn annoying.
Thursday 8-27-2019
Squat: 545 lbs 1RM
Friday was to test bench and deadlift. Got 315 lbs on bench press easily, as was expected as I've done it weekly. It was basically a "opener" type weight. Couldn't quite push out 325 lbs however. Deadlifted 555 lbs for a hot new sub-220 lbs (and sub 210 lbs) bodyweight PR.
Friday 8-28-2019
Bench Press: 315 lbs 1 RM
Deadlift: 555 lbs 1 RM
Lying Triceps Extensions: 5x10
This current week is going to be Bullshit Week. Feel free to recommend some stupid, "active recovery" level shit to do.
Monday 9-2-2019
Safety Bar Squats: 340 lbs 5x5
Feet Up Bench Press: 225 lbs 5x5
Lying Triceps Extensions: 5x10
Because Sean "PEBCAK "HERBY"" Herbison had the bright idea last time, highlights:
6'' improvement on Broad Jump to 9 feet even
A wet fart on squats
A much dryer fart on bench press
555 lbs deadlift, a 10 lbs PR for anything lifted under 220 lbs bodyweight

Re: DR's Constant Battle Against ADD
This week continued on bullshitting around with some quasi-new stuff at "active recovery" type weights. It all has me literally itching (fucking dry skin) to get back to doing entirely too much spastic nonsense to keep me off the street and off drugs.
Tuesday 9-3-2019
Deficit Deadlifts: Using a 45 lbs bumper plate to stand on (4-5 inches? I dunno) 365 lbs 3x5
Curls: 70 lbs 5x10
Running stuff: 10 laps
Wednesday 9-4-2019
Incline Bench Press: 155 lbs 5x8
Pull Ups: 5x12
Broad Jumps: 4x6
Thursday 9-5-2019
Safety Bar Squats: 390 lbs 3x5
DB Preacher Curls: 40 lbs 5x12
I TRIED good mornings with the safety squat bar. I thought they might be a little bit less horrible and useless than I recall with that bar. Turns out they're horrible and useless no matter what bar you use. The SLDLs off of a 25 lbs bumper plate (~2 inch deficit) will prove to be much more effective for hamstrings and lower back, I'm sure. Floor presses might be a bit more featured if my shoulder continues to ache, and done a bit less if it feels better.
Friday 9-6-2019
Deficit Stiff-Legged Deadlifts: ~2 inch deficit 315 lbs 5x8
Floor Press: 225 lbs 4x6
Lying Triceps Extension: 70 lbs 5x10
COMING UP:
An I-Mean-It-This-Time-For-Real-Guys bulk. I had been TRYING to gain some weight fairly clean these past couple months, which lead to exactly zero weight gain. No more cute shit, I will be at least 215 lbs (which is only around 10 lbs heavier) by Christmas, or my name isn't Dirty H. "Fuckmothering" Red IV, Record Setting (Technically, Shut Up) Powerlifter.

Re: DR's Constant Battle Against ADD
I lack the requisite eloquence to sufficiently elucidate the dizzying volume of basketball I participated in over the course of this week.
Monday 9-16-2019
Basketball: I seriously don't even know, at least six games, I stopped counting. The last one was 2v2 for extra running around in literal cirlces.

Bench Press: 300 lbs 1x1 265 lbs 6x4

I NORMALLY try to do some conditioning on Tuesday, but since I played so much basketball on Monday, I figured I'd give it a rest.

Not as much basketball and, coincidentally I'm sure, my ankles, knees, calves, quads, hips, glutes, back, and legs aren't as bloody stiff and sore as they were after the week before.

Halfway through this workout, I was walking across the basketball halfcourt to the bathrooms and someone shooting around missed a shot that bounced kind of towards me. I lunged to grab it and toss it back, and in landing all upon my right foot, I felt like I kind of jammed my quad, if that makes any sense. I THINK that was the cause of intermittent knee pain for all of two days.

The side of my knee kind of hurt doing some things and not others. I had to bail on snatches because the knee bend on the catch REALLY make it complain, but deficit deadlifts were no issue. I dunno.

My knee ache MIGHT have been a tight IT band. Because stretching it appeared to make it a lot better, to the extent I was able to do all the squats I intended to do, even though walking down stairs caused mild ache before leaving for the gym.

Halfway through this workout, I was walking across the basketball halfcourt to the bathrooms and someone shooting around missed a shot that bounced kind of towards me. I lunged to grab it and toss it back, and in landing all upon my right foot, I felt like I kind of jammed my quad, if that makes any sense. I THINK that was the cause of intermittent knee pain for all of two days.

The side of my knee kind of hurt doing some things and not others. I had to bail on snatches because the knee bend on the catch REALLY make it complain, but deficit deadlifts were no issue. I dunno.

My knee ache MIGHT have been a tight IT band. Because stretching it appeared to make it a lot better, to the extent I was able to do all the squats I intended to do, even though walking down stairs caused mild ache before leaving for the gym.

Re: DR's Constant Battle Against ADD
All right, I'm going to skip recounting the two week gap because it's basically the same as the two weeks before it and I'm lazy. I also pulled my right trapezius muscle doing a snatch last Wednesday, which had mostly recovered by Sunday. But between that and several other parts of my beginning/continuing to ache, I'm taking a Recovery/Bitch Week. This is that week.

Re: DR's Constant Battle Against ADD
Well, at least you can still squat over 500 on a recovery week. So you've got that going for you.

Re: DR's Constant Battle Against ADD
NOW, after Bitch Week, my shoulder was aching worse than it was for the previous weeks where I was ignoring it, oddly enough. To the point that normal movement was causing mild ache. So I went to the doctor, they gave me an anti-inflammatory shot, and told me to do nothing with it for a week. Including deadlifts and squats and curls (I asked). And after that week I took a week to build back into lifting right quickly, and test out just HOW recovered the shoulder was. It (along with the rest of me) appeared to be at least 95% recovered, so I got back into a full load of lots of stuff that probably has some rhyme or reason to it if you tilt your head and squint. That was this past week.
Also, I dropped back down to 206 lbs because I didn't want to eat a bunch of food and gain weight when I couldn't LIFT it into at least some muscle. So the Turbo Bulk is on to hit 215 lbs by Christmas.
