WEIGHT: ???
SORENESS: upper hams, low back a little
ACHES/INJURIES: none, just feel a little dead
MENTAL STATE: okay

- warm up

- prime times x 30y,30y,30y

- heel-toe runs x 30y,30y,30y

- SL bound x a bunch, did not keep track of distance reps or sets
wayyyy better than before, i think. instead of focusing on bringing the front leg up i focused on getting the legs split through the cycle and getting the front foot down heel-toe and driving through. still pretty ugly i think but closer to the guy in the last video t0ddday posted. will continue with heel-toe runs as a lead-in to these. helped that half the field was open so i had some space to work with

- sprint 30m x 3; 60m x 2
4.6, 4.6, 4.6; 8.3, 8.3 -- so slow, just bad news all the way around. started third 60m but stumbled a bit on the start and was like fuck it.

- stretch

gym tomorrow for upper lifting, SL leg stuff and GHRs. probably play a couple games of pick up on thursday, rest friday, and then try to have a good day of jumps on saturday.

congrats on the progress! good luck with getting the bulk underway.

all my lean protein meal suggestions involve meat, so can't help much there. if you ever switch over to omnivore status let me know, i got recipes galore. made some tasty pulled chicken last week that's still going strong. i've made about 7-8 pounds of pulled pork in the past month, too. yum.

there have got to be some sites you can check out, though. just google "vegetarian bodybuilding recipes" or something like that.

Acy was my favorite.

yeah he's awesome. got that anger.

the guy actually wrote back this time. their sprint workouts are generally:

- warm up
- drills
- 2 x (50,100,200,400) @85% (explicitly described as "lactate threshold" training)
- cool down

the main coach is a "marathoner who loves sprinting." so a bit dubious/disappointing with respect to speed work of the type acole's been doing and t0ddday does, and what i'm really interested in. worth checking out, though. maybe i'd meet someone there who's actually interested in sprinting and has a better idea what they're doing than i do.

Hey

Anyone got some go to workout that will increase athletism..

do sports.

that is some grade-A found poetry material.

PVTC is the group I emailed with no response. I've had ultimate games on the field where they work out and it was all middle-distance people. I remember seeing a girl I'd gone to high school with who was a talented 5k runner and ended up running at Maryland. She was fit as hell, toasting dudes in the repeat 400s and 800s that they seemed to be doing. But I don't want to be doing 800s. If they get back to me and say, hey, actually we do have a group that does sprint training, then by god I'll get my ass down there on Monday nights. But they're the only ones. The Maryland clubs, and there are a couple although hard to tell how active they are, might as well be in New York for how realistic it would be to get to their practices sans car.

In re: fixing my bounds: I weep to think how much improvement I could make with a knowledgeable partner or coach. By god, I bet I could even run sub-13s.* If I ever get into competitive lifting I will for damn sure find a training partner and proper club because I know the value. It just isn't that easy here. Especially without a car.
