crazy what happens when i don't post in my diary for a day or two

feels like i'm super falling behind

and i missed week 2 day 1 of this training cycle yesterday; I could have been ready but woke up too late, and the days affairs which included thanksgiving meal prep and helping a friend move stuff into his apartment overtook the need to train. After dinner I slept from 7-8pm. I could have trained at that point but felt groggy and confused, unsure of what to do with myself. I accepted that I was missing a training day, but then rolling around in bed at 12:00AM thought about how I probably could have made it, anyways.

Just felt like an anti-social thing to do considering my family was still hanging out.

My default mode is prioritizing people over training (e.g. I could have trained if I didn't help my friend move). This seems good and I'm OK with it for now, to an extent.

The rest day was also probably permissible, given my increasingly creaky knees (I mobbed hard on this off day) and minor shoulder tear from Friday - not sure how jerks could have gone.

hang clean + clean
90x(1+1)x3
95x(1+1)x3

clean pull
130x2x6

fsq
110x2x6

this was light and easy
i should have warmed up my legs and hips more
but as per usual I felt rushed and needed to get home for family dinner after this
so following this workout I'm starting to feel the toxic dead squirrel feeling in my quad that I only identified after reading about trigger point therapy via painscience.com.

balance slightly off in the clean - moving backwards on hang clean but also laterally on the receive - need to strike a consistent, solid foot reposition.

i feel good about the fsq, although legs felt tight I think I'm coordinating my hips and feet correctly, could do a lot more in the near future.
