im cutting out any "sugar drink" (beet juice, tart cherry juice, and as of last night gatorade) .. i figured i'd replace beet juice with gatorade to see if i'm less bloated.. after drinking gatorade last night and today, i cramped (just walking around) both times.

water/milk from now on..

Bio: Morning

last night's sleep: ~6 hours
last night fell asleep: ~10:30 PM
wakeup = 5:30
bw = 149 lb.
morning resting heart rate = didn't measure
soreness = none
aches = none
injuries = none
standing desk (when on computer): not much
feel = good
water = alot
mosquito bites: 0



Food

5:40 AM

- ~4 oz concentrated coffee
- nothing but coffee! experimenting: trying not to feel bloated & goto the bathroom a ton..



Session: Morning

6:30 AM

warmup: really good warmup
- some track-like skips/warmup drills into light runs, a few intense runs
- the one i liked the best was skip + straight leg swing (for hamstrings/hip flexors)
- felt really good
- easily hitting 5:30 min/mi pace

run: 3.14 mi in 19:37
- 5k: 19:20
- splits: 5:59, 6:16, 6:34, rest: ~5:46
- avg pace: 6:15 min/mi
- wanted to pace at 6:00 min/mi .... fail ;f
- hilarious.. mile 1 feels so much easier than miles 2 & 3..
- i had to consciously try and slow down in mile-1 because I was easily going "too fast".. feels weird to slow down.

i think my energy systems are all messed up........ lmao!!



lmao.

:trolldance:

^^ me running.



sprints: progressively increasing intensity, walk back recovery
- 5 x ~80m
- splits: 17.5s, 15.9s, 14.9s, 13.8s, 16.0s (shutting it down)
- max speed: 16.2 mph
- happy with that after running 5k... legs felt really good.
- forefoot/real sprint style, not "run style"
- probably about ~80% of max (on my fastest sprint)
- started cramping a bit during these sprints.. was going to shut it down anyway.



nice.. :F


tomorrow i'm going to try just a banana and coffee when i wakeup .. I definitely think I need SOMETHING in my stomach.

note to self:
- updating through the day.
- consistency consistency .. consistency.
- stop being a pussy.
- forget about what you did earlier, the day before, the week before, the year before .. focus only on the current session

goals:
- wakeup @ 5 AM
- improve:
-- 100m
-- 200m
-- 400m
-- 1 KM
-- 12 minute test
-- 5 KM
-- L-SLRVJ
-- half squat, half RDL, calf raises, BW upper

potential run protocols:
- always warmup great
- very light stretching before
- light stretching after
- paced runs: pick a pace and hold it 100%
- hold-on-for-dear-life: pick a pace, try and maintain pace for as long as possible -> measure distance maintained
- 12-minute test
- 200, 400m, 1km, 1 mile repeats
- from salazar workouts slide:
-- 6 x mile repeats with 400m jog recovery
-- 20 x 200m, with or without jog recovery
-- 8-12 x 400m, with x-second (~60s) standing recovery

training:
- finish 5k sessions with some ~150-200m max sprints

5k:
- make miles 1 & 2 the same, instead of 2 & 3
- maximally sprint (~160m) at the end of every 5k (from 3.0 to 3.1) -> need to teach myself to always tap into every last MU

markers:
- repeatable 1m:15s 400m's with ~1 minute rest in between
- max 400 under 60s

future contests:
- 10/09/2016: would need to run ~18:30 5k to win
- 11/24/2016: would need to run ~16:30 5k to win
- 12/14/2016: would need to run ~4:40 mile (holiday 1-mile race) to win

cues:
- POSTURE! RUN TALL!
- SHORT GCT
- WHEN TIRED, SHORT GCT + GET STRIDE FREQ BACK ON TRACK
- HOLD HANDS PROPERLY - RELAXED
- STAY RELAXED

warning:
- ALWAYS WARMUP PROPERLY
- DO NOT OVERSTRETCH
- GET ENOUGH SLEEP

weird:
- CREATE IMAGINARY RUNNING FRIENDS & RUN WITH THEM

how come?
- HOW COME I CAN'T ADD ~20m A WEEK TO MY ~13+ MPH PACE?? :f

at least you're not in haiti.

Mate it's all 1st world problems here. We've got nothing on the rest of the world when if comes to natural disasters.

not to say it doesn't suck when a huge storm hits, though! best way to deal with it is to be like this guy: https://www.facebook.com/lane.pittman/videos/vb.542376723/10153984485731724/?type=2&theater.

Lol. That's brilliant.

x2 .. i had seen the an image of him but not the video.. video is much more badass.  :headbang:

If only I could add "20m a week" to my ~14 mph sustained pace ... like we do with ~5-10 lb. a week on squat.

hmm maybe I can. ;f

That reminds me of the 1200m timed run I had to do, it was difficult, my 'i quit voice' is always there, when I ran 400m, started a little fast and started slowing down due to being tired and approaching the 400m finish line my mind is telling me stop here, but for some reason I am just running past it and run 2 more laps even though I am dead I am somehow able to drag myself around the track ignoring the 'i quit voice'

nice!! the "quit voice" is so annoying.. I want to kill it - completely dead. :f

kwe lands some disgusting stuff..

my comment on youtube:

this is still one of the best courts/settings i've seen for a dunk contest (on video).

damn dupuy almost got WRECKED at 0:55 .. scary..

kwe @ 1:01 that's one of the best i've seen of that dunk - nasty.

kwe omfg @ 2:20

man warmup-lines for dunk contests are so much fun to watch.. someone needs to make a contest using the warmup-line format :D

Nice work. A 9 second improvement in around a fortnight. Got to be pleased with that.

thanks alot man!

ya things have been clicking lately.. feel like my body is accelerating adaptations lately. Body seems ready to run at all times (other than the soreness i created lately from stupid stuff). Fat is also starting to finally come off it seems, without any drastic change in diet - i'm eating the same (clean).

i've been able to push myself harder lately too.. i mean not every run but, my 'quit voice' is not as loud. yesterday after I came off that sharp curve, pace slowed, and about a quarter mile after I had lots of 'quit thoughts' but i remember telling myself "i will not fail this effort, i already put in enough work in the first third, pick it up" etc.. was good. ;f

pc!!
