damn, that post-shot pain sucks because it's kinda freaky. i'm somewhat needle-phobic too. can't remember the last time I got a flu shot.

Humidity destroys me too. 9+km in 45' with a sub-4 km in is not a bad workout anyway, even granted how much you have progressed.

humidity, from the perspective of exercise, is the great satan.

agreed.

fu*k it's brutal.

also, i was talking to this "old guy" (67 y/o, 25:XX 5k) after my last race and we were talking about the humidity. he says he loves it because it makes his joints feel better. LOL. maybe we'll enjoy it 30+ years from now........ :derp: :ninja: :trollface:

If i get my interview or offered the apprenticeship this week then I pretty much won't care about my fitness test.  Well if I get the apprenticeship I won't care to do it but if I only get an interview then I will.

Either way, after this Saturday I want to get into oly lifting.

I would keep 25 minute jogs every day and try to figure out a good oly program along with stretching and all that.  I will be looking at some oly books and seeing which one would be best, especially considering I am natty and most of oly lifters aren't.

nice!

most oly books don't have PED-programs, from what i've seen. just simple programs/periodization, technique breakdown etc.

it'd probably be a good idea to get some solid 1-on-1 instruction early on. you really want to avoid learning bad habits/technique with oly's. so if instruction is an option, maybe get some sessions in.

keep up the runs too.. lots of videos of oly lifters running hah! (srs).

annoyed, I purchased plan-b: 2016 Olympics Kenyan Speed Suit:



basically a singlet that is "tight", not bouncy .. and some half tights. Might be a good purchase.. probably good to wear for mile races, track meets etc.. I imagine it feels compression-ish upper and lower. I've been very impressed with everything i get that's "Nike / Authentic Kenya" race clothing, so i'll probably love this. we'll see. :ninja:

I really wanted that other singlet tho.. i'll stay on the lookout :f



just found this.. this is actually a really good photo showing the differences between traditional race clothes (left) and the speed suit (right):



speed suit is really "tight". I like it. Good to have I think!

:D


I wonder if the stuff i ordered is that tight though, this is a photo of it:



they actually use a photo of manangoi in it .. but i don't see the "white dots" on it.

whatever. should be cool.

man im such a noob.

that thing is one piece??? LMFAO.

well, at least i'll own a speed suit. I guess it'll come in handy at some point.

:D

Soreness: quads, hamstring
BW: 7st  :o lol scale is messed up

Condition: It was windy, but very humid inside the gym. Not a lot of room available but managed to get the work done as I wanted. Also am fasting today but I doubt my weight would go down by 2.5 - 3 stones.

"windy" inside the gym sounds like a good problem .. not so much humidity though hah. Gym with nice air flow ftw.

My mistake. It was soo windy outside, even though window was open, hardly any of it entered the room. So humid and no air flow.
gym with nice air flow ftw def, if only it was in this gym.

ahhh gotcha. damn!! sux. would be great if i wasn't mistaken, hah.
