i was thinking about startin parkour
my friend says its a gd full muscle workout
but im not sure whether it wud help or hinder my jump

i dont really see how it could hurt it.. there's some pretty intense landings in parkour.. as long as you're still getting strong in the weightroom, it should be fine.. parkour would probably have a positive impact on your jumping.. just progress properly - dont fall off 3 story buildings your first week ;)

peace

Parkour is win.

Silly Einstein and defining insanity as making an induction fallacy.

Noice article though.

thanks man.

ya it sounded cool though and somewhat applies.. ie, spinning your wheels by utilizing the same type of training over and over and over.

hahahah..

that's not really possible for most cases, though it does sound cool. for example, when i come up with a programming idea, i think it through in my mind, write down notes/design plans, then once i think i have it set, i start applying it.. if this program relies on external factors, then as soon as i start programming it, many things change.. things that not even an alien life force could predict...

the same rings true for performance training programming, IMO.

:F

You're just stupider than Tesla, but then again so am I.

Tesla could friggin predict external factors, he knew where and why his machines would wear and tear.

Damn, that's a high squat. I thought you were going just a couple of inches above parallel.

ok men.
 after two weeks doing this experiment I feel good but my legs feel a bit tired, maybe 'cause I neglet stretching  :-X
I'd like to know which kind of exercises I've to do after a training session to quickly recover (static stretching, pnf...?).
Thanks


Andrew has a warm up and cooldown article on the main site. I've found I recover better when I add the cooldown to my workout.

interesting that you actually felt refreshed though.. i've only had that happen a few times with such crappy sleep.. i understand the non-effected training session, but the feeling fresh part is weird.. maybe you had some crazy deep REM sleep in those 3 hours.

peace

I dunno why, maybe it's because I returned to a more normal waking pattern. I usually got up at 7:15 for school, and I always feel best getting up within an hour of that, naturally though, without alarms.

I inadvertantly tested some theory from this article. I slept for only 3 hours today, after being on a schedule of 9+ hours every day for the past couple of weeks. I didn't bother to go to sleep until 5am ( ::)) and only managed to sleep until 8am. I woke up feeling suprisingly refreshed, and ended up having a great session, PRing in every lift I attemped.

The session went like this, bold indicates a PR:

Drop Step Vert
30" Tie PR
31"
31.5"
30"
31.5"
Psyched about this!

Weights

Squat
Bar x 10 (44 lbs)
40 x 5 (88 lbs)
60 x 5 (132 lbs)
70 x 3 (154 lbs)
80 x 3 (176 lbs)
All nice deep, clean and easy reps. Good light day.

No ISOs todays as Wednesday is now a recovery day for squatting.

Dumbbell Row
20 x 8 (44 lbs)
32.5 x 5 (71.5 lbs)
45 x 7 (99 lbs)

Dips
BW x 6
+20 x 5 (44 lbs)

Dumbbell Curls (I figured my bicep strength was holding back my chinning progress)
10 x 6 (22 lbs)
14 x 8 (30.8 lbs)

1:04 is pretty fast for having dead calves and shin splints, you're gonna be flying when you can run fresh.
