Ok. I will slow down. I dunno but I have developed this "rush" feeling where I feel compelled to do everything as fast as possible. I will slow down a bit, sir.

I just did that. The glutes fired first.

I actually did use the same technique with the bar near my shins...and I scraped my shins so I sissied out

I will try and use the same technique, sir.

hehe...you used to do oh squats really fast

thanks for the reverse lunge vid

lol.....

you are welcome. that vid was just for you.

Beginning Thoughts:

Nice work. Don't beat yourself up over the test. Remember sh*t happens. I'm sure you will do better than you think. Good luck.

Solid work Anuj. I would love to train with you. I haven't had a training partner in forever. Do you ever train with anyone else? You've been making impressive progress. I need to quit reading your journal, so I feel better about myself.

I got a B in that exam. Fuck.....

When I am at my university, I have two guys who I sometimes train with:



But other than that I am on my own. When I am back home in Bombay I train with some guys but that just means we each do our own thing - we're just together working out around the same time.

I think we'd be cool training partners. I haven't had an actual training partner ever. I guess my training partner is the book I bring with me to read in between sets

Beginning Thoughts:

This is yesterday's workout....I have had a total of 11 hours of sleep this whole week. Tonight I plan on making up for this large deficit.

Workout:

Overhead Squats:
95 lbs x 2 reps x 7 sets
On set 7 I did some stupid shit...the bar drifted forward and I lost my balance. But I recovered myself and cranked out another rep. Then just for kicks I did a third rep and I completely lost my balance and the bar crashed down in front of me. So I did another set of 2 reps to total 7 complete sets. But wtf.....I cannot believe I did something so dumb.

Dips:
6 reps x 3 sets

Assisted Squat Pistols
5 reps x 3 sets
These were damn hard...I got a video.

Overhead Squats:

Overall Impression:

I am sore and tired. It's time for some R&R. I will be taking most of next week off owing to thanksgiving

I hope everyone is having a good week so far...

That's cool. I might start training some with the powerlifters that train at my gym. There are about 6 or 7 guys that always train together...some days it's only 2-3 guys, but sometimes it's 5-6. If I can get healthy and get a little stronger, then I won't feel bad about training with them. It's a good environment. It can kind of suck though when you see somebody squatting +600 for reps. I haven't ever had a good training partner before, so that's probably part of the reason that I shy away from it.

Enjoy your time off...sounds like you need it.
