what you working as now?
you work? lol
what do you expect your vert to end up after a while not lifting? your gonna lose all your strenf.
It's nice to have endless stamina and endurance, my biggest problem is huge difficulty in breathing out of my nose and right side pain under ribs. P.S try to read my last journal post and give me an advice about me not using my posterior chain on my squats if you can relate to that. thanks man ! keep up the good work
now please delete all the other shit those bots have posted
bringing the long distance genetics into play?
nice
ya pretty much.. well, it's always been something im good at but never cared about.. decided to just start caring about it from now on, see what i can do, push myself to the limit endurance wise. it's going to be fun competing too..
the only other time ive focused on running was when i boxed.. was in insane shape, loved how i felt.. but i didnt focus on running primarily, it was just something i did to improve my fitness for boxing.. so now, im focusing primarily on running, going to see what i can do to get back to that level of fitness then push my limits, should be fun.
pc man
I hear ya, I have almost exactly the same build as you in terms of height and weight. As a kid long distance running was my thing and I wasn't too bad considering I never trained for it. Right now I can't run for shit though haha...just so out of shape overall my lungs wouldn't be able to deliver.
You'll be a long distance BEAST if you keep this up thought. Upping the pace for the last mile is no joke. Do you listen to music when you're running?
I haven't read your journal in a while, what's up with all the long runs?
Yo it'll be crazy to see someone who has high amounts of relative strength like you distance running. You defintiely don't have to try as hard per stride as a regular endurance runner as long as you keep up your strength
Update:
Sent him msg after I saw that he won his age division (55-59) in the broad jump at the World Senior Games (50&over) last week in Utah. He jumped 8ft 6.75in which was only 1/4in less than the winning jump for the 50-54yo division. Says he doesn't even do squats due to knee pain (I can relate) but heavy deadlifts (2xbw) and lots of loaded box jumps and broad jumps. He was pretty proud and honored to have won.
Invited him to join adarq.org in the newly created "old farts" forum w/me and Vag.
