800m+ Running and/or Conditioning / Re: Various Running Articles
« on: January 11, 2016, 11:49:16 am »
this is my argument with people who say bolt could have been faster with better training or more dedication, or that randy moss would have been a better WR if he'd smoked less weed, or whatever. everyone is different, and when someone is the best ever at what they do -- or even very elite -- it's hard to believe that doing things differently would have improved their results. usain bolt is the fastest 100m runner of all time by more than a tenth of a second! randy moss was completely uncoverable for years!
if this dude can make four olympic teams with 70 miles a week, and when he tried to run more got hurt, then who's to say that if he'd had more driven coaching he wouldn't have broken down in his early 20s and never competed at an international level? counterfactuals are all problematic; counterfactuals second-guessing success more so than most.

you have gout? wild. when i first started having problems with my toes i thought that it might be that. turned out to be simply malformations in the joints down there, which was a relief. gout sucks.

what do you mean by rounding? heavy DLs pull your shoulders forward and that's not necessarily bad.

that's a good mix of exercises but whether it's a good plan or not depends on what you're trying to get out of it. did you make up your mind about that? for just general GPP/getting better at all those activities, it looks solid to me, although i would reverse the order of workouts so you go fastest-->slowest instead of the other way around.

haha merrick that's nuts. and you know, i had the same thought about doing too many things at once, but i have been writing it off in my head as excuse-making. maybe you're right, though.
i think i'll probably just stick with my normal daily caffeine for now but maybe it's worth looking into stims for when i try to PR.

just did an unintentional fast and it gave me a headache. i do think it makes sense for me to try it as i try to cut a few pounds, though. full meal > half meal.

« on: January 09, 2016, 02:37:58 pm »What do you think are the major advantages that aerobic training offers over intervals? The articles I have seen comparing intervals to aerobic exercise are generally heavily in favor of intervals. Do you training aerobically because you think it will have more carryover to tennis or another goal you have?

^^^no doubt, thanks for the tips. i'm gonna try sheer willpower first, if that doesn't work then we'll see what's up with supps.
WEIGHT: ??? (???)
SORENESS: none
ACHES/INJURIES: right mid back, SI joint a bit -- both went away with warm up, but then i got a headache
MENTAL STATE: good
- warm up
- DLRVJ x ~12
got a dude to try throwing me a few lobs, maybe did 7-8 attempts. no idea how close i was on the couple of tosses that seemed pretty good, although given that i got a violent dunk with the size 3 soccer ball on my first jump i know i was getting pretty high, PR-tie levels. first time ever asking someone to throw lobs so i feel good about it. head started killing me after the third or fourth jump.
the headache was triggered, i'm pretty sure, by having three cups of coffee without food before working out. the timing of the day got screwed up because of some damn event in the gym, didn't end up eating until after i worked out, so around 2 PM. not ideal. i feel out of it now.
