Jager (2nd from front) looks so damn insanely strong for his thin-ness.
Moh and Jager, similar builds. Tall middle-distance folks.

-explosive through the roof. Focus pretty off. It's weird, days when Im an athletic freak my conditioning sucks and days when I can run forever my speed is usually average. It might be correlated with diet.
that is an interesting observation. might be worth logging diet for a little while to see if you can find a clear correlation?
big ups on the squat PR, btw.
My idea was that high explosiveness = high carb, while high fat = good endurance. Probably the explosiveness was because i did some heavy neural work: 2-3rep trap bar, squat 5's, had multiple practices, then no lower body for a few days and had a mini peak. I highly suspect the conditioning is because of high fat though. Additional evidence: is that normally I sweat insane amounts but during the double weekend practice despite it being really hot i didnt sweat almost at all. The lack of sweat makes my throws so much smoother, almost worth cutting down carbs just for that.
In my experience, high carb is always the way to go, endurance and/or explosiveness.
For myself, need some saturated fat/cholesterol to feel strong (eggs are a miracle), without it I personally feel like i'm broken. High fat/lower carb diets tank my endurance.
The vast majority of middle/long distance endurance athletes are high carb as well. You get some high fat folks in the "ultra" endurance realm. But when we're talking endurance with a speed component, hardly anyone performs at the elite level on high fat/low carb etc.
Just my 2cents.
I mean if you feel it's working, don't listen to me that's for sure. Also don't know if by "high fat" you mean high fat low carb, or just high fat in addition to carbs etc.
In other news im starting a job where i will be working a 60 hr daily graveyard work week with no weekends off and including driving. So far its alright but is going to get intense real soon.
damn 60 hours, intense.

I'll get out of this rut soonWeights are beneficial but there are other ways to exercise e.g. jogging, sprinting, doing pullups on the monkey bars etc.
Here's a couple of cover tackles from my last 2 games of league.<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbnmcXHATnk" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbnmcXHATnk</a>

« on: July 16, 2018, 04:42:10 pm »- run 6.94 km in 37:17
- stretch
so begins the journey of (mostly) letting go of workout to workout pace targets. i'll still probably throw in a few progression runs or fartleks 1-2 times per week but for the most part, it's ~40 minutes per run, working up to 60.
FUCK it's humid. 74%.
nice!! fu*k workout-to-workout pace targets!!
for me, makes it way too machine-like. "Listening to your body" with running is a serious art, the more we learn to push/back off based on our current state, the better. It's very similar to jumping etc, but the "heart muscle" component adds a different dynamic. I guess jumping's version of heart/muscle-fatigue is CNS-fatigue, except in running you can experience both (heart & cns fatigue). How the heart is responding on any given day, is not at all bound by our instruction, depends on so many variables.
word that's some nice humidity.

ya it was good. my dad wanted to watch it so i found him a stream. didn't expect pac to look that good.. don't think it was mattyse looking bad, he's always solid/tough/lots of power. pac looked decent, good movement, solid power, but still his same old sloppy D as the fight goes on. he just gets too confident when he's controlling someone, gives people at exploiting his "chin". and from that recap, I avoided the spoiler!
thanks for the link!

easy day.
edit: i feel so sick after my evening run. think i ate too much earlier, mucous was thick during my evening run but i was mostly going slow so that helped. after i got home, drank a ton of water and now i feel like death. ;d
edit #2: feeling way better before i sleep.. natural fruit juices + tons of water cleaned me up. took a while, but feel decent now. that was scary. thought i was going to throw up for a bit. spit no longer thick either.
the spit test is a really good one. if it's thick, bad. if it's like water, good. (from my experience).

he has some legit mental problems.
no skills at all. looks like he can throw a hard punch occasionally (just wings it), but no actual boxing/fighting skills.
also check some of the last videos on this thread, a professional heavyweight boxer tried to take his head off. Zelenoff is lucky he didn't die that night. tbh i'm surprised he's still alive.
