Waiting for the 26th

I'm not progressing as fast as I intended on the art scene, this is not because I can't, its because I get distracted into social networking and whatnot too easily. I need to fix that but I guess I'm partially afraid of doing so because I'd get a lot more Isolated than I already am... (and I already am very isolated)

But, hell day!

Squats: 80
Pullups: 2x10 (like 30 second pause)

I should aim for 90 squats and 30 pullups. Lets see how this goes. I stopped doing regular bar hangs a while ago, the callus still remains because I use the bar weekly for exercises and my skin tolerates it much better now.

I did 5 pullups for warmup, I might wanna revert to wall pullups for warmup while I'm still getting used to this shit.

I did a regular 10 squats for squat warmups.

Now listening to a skyrim/morrowind mashup... I'll do the real pullups. :3

I couldn't do 30 in one set, but I'll try 3x10

I barely pulled 2x10, can I make the 3rd?

No way. Couldn't do one more if my life depended on it.

Now on fitting gory lyric viking metal, I'll do squats. The squats are almost that brutal I must admit.

Just for today I took it easy on the damned squats.. I doubted my ability to reach 90 but I pulled a fairly perfect 80 instead. Last time I did this my muscles quite literally died. They probably needed an extra week to catch up, that's ok. I could also start increasing it in 5s instead of 10s if the same happens again.

Even if I didn't go beyond my limit on the squats this still seems to have packed quite the punch, and in the pullups case I've analyzed it as a joint issue, my joints can't keep up with the muscles (joint recovery hurts even more than muscle recovery too, and joints will ache right after the exercise unlike muscles that will only ache for a while after the exercise then stop aching until a day or two from the exercise.

As I said recently, I changed my deadline from 24th to 26th after taking 2 days rest from art practicing. I've pretty much got down a lot of basics when it comes to drawing human figures, if I go all out I suspect I can surpass a lot of amateurs that have been drawing aimlessly for years (kids usually)

We'll see on the 26th I guess.
