I will stick with my 4x25. I have a hard enough time keeping track of that let alone getting the subdivision of triangles involved.

Good to hear your shoulder is doing better. I had a similar issue with my knee years ago where I had a long standing knee issue that I had been favouring off and on for years but then during Covid I was working out a lot and doing goblet squats and bulgarian split squats routinely and my knee really nagged me especially on the split squats the first few sessions and then it got better and felt good for a couple years until I started skipping leg day again and it began to flare up.

I thought you were going to switch to 40-40-20.

How's your knee doing with the 100 squats?

I have writer's knees, so I can tell you how mine are doing after ~50 squats. 😬

But they that's what bones are for. They'll get stronger!

I did 40-40-20 for one day and then went back to 4x25. 4 sets fits better into my current routine because my dog gets 4 small meals per day as part of her prescription diet so I just do my set every time I feed the dog. It reminds me to get it done.

That makes sense to me.

The reason four sets gives me trouble is that I need to fit one in after work and before my daughter goes to bed. It isn't always convenient to fit that one in.

Three would be easy: one when I wake up, one during work, one after my daughter's asleep.

I have been keeping an eye out for a new contract job. I hardly worked all of last year and that did a number on my savings, plus I bought a lot of bitcoin, so I should work a bit more this year. If I get a job, I will likely switch to a 3 set structure where I do one set in morning, one set after working and one set at night before bed.

Apparently, you didn't buy enough bitcoin, considering it's more than doubled pretty recently.

Will you be able to work for bitcoin? Or, just whatever trash currency you all are using?

I never buy enough bitcoin. Every bear market is the same. But I am not going to sell so need to do some fiat work regardless.
