High frequency days 85 and 86: new years lifting

Interesting new years. Dealing with some emotional mental hurdles that are going to take some time to overcome.

My back end strategy for this has always been the same. Make my friends feel good about themselves, be nice to strangers, and focus on completing small daily tasks. Also...stop partying bro. It's been a crazy few weeks.

Workout1
Dips
92.5x5
62.5x6
32.5x8

Workout2
Chinup
57.5x5
32.5x6
7.5x10
Hspu x12
Ez.bar curls 3xamap
Jump rope x4 rounds

Workout comments
I damn near started going back to naturally enhanced this morning. The idea would be to get in a fuck ton of volume 2 days a week, then do conditioning and neck work the other days.

This isnt a horrible idea, but the resolutioners put a stop to that real fast. One of the major strengths of one lift a day is you never have to wait for equipment. Squat rack taken? Fuck you ill do dips (see workout 1). Dip station taken? Fuck you ill do incline dumbbell bench.

I think what i need to try going forward is not necessarily to change my approach on movement selection or frequency of said moves, but to temper intensity by having a few lighter 10x3 days. The weight used being my current 6 rep max on any given movement. Get some volume in and call in.

Example
Today chinups 6rm was 32.5x6
My next pull session can be 32.5x10x3
More volume, low rest, still quality work, still high frequency.
